"While he was on this pulpit, I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying: ' Beware of narrating too many Ahadith from me. Whoever attributes something to me, let him speak the truth faithfully. Whoever attributes to say something that I did not say, let him take his place in Hell." (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 35)
