[Machine] Yazeed ibn Salamah al-Ju'fi said, "Yazeed said to the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , 'Verily, I have heard from you many hadiths and I fear that I might forget the first one while remembering the last one, so tell me a word that encompasses everything.' He (the Prophet) said, 'Fear Allah in what you know.'"  

الطبراني:١٨٩٢٧ – حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ هَارُونَ ثَنَا هَنَّادُ بْنُ السَّرِيُّ ثَنَا أَبُو الْأَحْوَصِ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ مَسْرُوقٍ عَنِ ابْنِ أَشْوَعَ

عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ سَلَمَةَ الْجُعْفِيِّ قَالَ قَالَ يَزِيدُ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ مِنْكَ حَدِيثًا كَثِيرًا أَخَافُ أَنْ يُنْسِيَ أَوَّلُهُ آخِرَهُ فَحَدِّثْنِي بِكَلِمَةٍ تَكُونُ جِمَاعًا قَالَ اتَّقِ اللهَ فِيمَا تَعْلَمُ

from Yazid bin Salamah Al-Ju'fi, he said: "Yazid bin Salamah 'O Messenger of Allah! I heard so many narrations from you that I am afraid the last of them will cause me to forget the first of them. So narrate a statement to me that will encompass them.' So he said: 'Have Taqwa of Allah with what you learn.'"  

الترمذي:٢٦٨٣ – حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادٌ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الأَحْوَصِ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ مَسْرُوقٍ عَنِ ابْنِ أَشْوَعَ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ سَلَمَةَ الْجُعْفِيِّ قَالَ قَالَ

يَزِيدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي قَدْ سَمِعْتُ مِنْكَ حَدِيثًا كَثِيرًا أَخَافُ أَنْ يُنْسِيَنِي أَوَّلَهُ آخِرُهُ فَحَدِّثْنِي بِكَلِمَةٍ تَكُونُ جِمَاعًا قَالَ اتَّقِ اللَّهَ فِيمَا تَعْلَمُ  

قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ لَيْسَ إِسْنَادُهُ بِمُتَّصِلٍ وَهُوَ عِنْدِي مُرْسَلٌ وَلَمْ يُدْرِكْ عِنْدِي ابْنُ أَشْوَعَ يَزِيدَ بْنَ سَلَمَةَ وَابْنُ أَشْوَعَ اسْمُهُ سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَشْوَعَ
