I heard a man reciting a verse (of the Holy Qur'an) but I had heard the Prophet ﷺ reciting it differently. So, I caught hold of the man by the hand and took him to Messenger of Allah ﷺ who said, "Both of you are right." Shuʿba, the sub-narrator said, "I think he said to them, "Don't differ, for the nations before you differed and perished (because of their differences). "  

سَمِعْتُ مِنَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ خِلاَفَهَا فَأَخَذْتُ بِيَدِهِ فَأَتَيْتُ بِهِ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ كِلاَكُمَا مُحْسِنٌ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ أَظُنُّهُ قَالَ لاَ تَخْتَلِفُوا فَإِنَّ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمُ اخْتَلَفُوا فَهَلَكُوا  

[Machine] I heard from the Prophet ﷺ about their dispute, so I took it and brought it to the Prophet ﷺ . He recognized dislike in the face of the Prophet ﷺ and said, "Both of you are good, do not differ from each other. The greatest of my knowledge is that Misaar mentioned, 'Do not differ from each other.' Indeed, those who came before you differed and it destroyed them."  

سَمِعْتُ مِنَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ خِلَافَهَا فَأَخَذْتُهُ فَجِئْتُ بِهِ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ فَعَرَفْتُ فِي وَجْهِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ الْكَرَاهِيَةَ قَالَ كِلَاكُمَا مُحْسِنٌ لَا تَخْتَلِفُوا أَكْبَرُ عِلْمِي قَالَ مِسْعَرٌ قَدْ ذَكَرَ فِيهِ لَا تَخْتَلِفُوا إِنَّ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمُ اخْتَلَفُوا فَأَهْلَكَهُمْ  

[Machine] I heard a man recite a verse in a way different from how the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had taught it. So, I took hold of his hand and went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He said, "Both of you are correct, don't differ with each other. My knowledge is vast, but if I do not know something, it is Ma'sura (Restricted). He then narrated the Hadith to me, saying, "Indeed, those who came before you differed in it, so they perished."  

سَمِعْتُ رَجُلًا قَرَأَ آيَةً عَلَى غَيْرِ مَاأَقْرَأَنِيهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَخَذْتُ بِيَدِهِ حَتَّى ذَهَبْتُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ كِلَاكُمَا مُحْسِنٌ لَا تَخْتَلِفُوا أَكْبَرُ عِلْمِي وَإِلَّا فَمِسْعَرٌ حَدَّثَنِي بِهَا فَإِنَّ مَنْ قَبْلَكُمُ اخْتَلَفُوا فِيهِ فَهَلَكُوا  

[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ reciting something other than what was written in front of me. So, I held his hand and went to the Prophet ﷺ . I saw that the face of the Prophet ﷺ had changed, and he said, "You both are good, do not differ in it, for indeed those who came before you differed in it."  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقْرَأُ غَيْرَهَا فَأَخَذْتُ بِيَدِهِ فَأَتَيْتُ بِهِ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَرَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ تَغَيَّرَ وَجْهُهُ فَقَالَ «كِلَاكُمَا مُحْسِنٌ لَا تَخْتَلِفُوا فِيهِ فَإِنَّ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمُ اخْتَلَفُوا فِيهِ»
