حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ، عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ لَبِيدٍ، قَالَ ذَكَرَ النَّبِيُّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ شَيْئًا فَقَالَ " ذَاكَ عِنْدَ أَوَانِ ذَهَابِ الْعِلْمِ " . قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَكَيْفَ يَذْهَبُ الْعِلْمُ وَنَحْنُ نَقْرَأُ الْقُرْآنَ وَنُقْرِئُهُ أَبْنَاءَنَا وَيُقْرِئُهُ أَبْنَاؤُنَا أَبْنَاءَهُمْ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ قَالَ " ثَكِلَتْكَ أُمُّكَ زِيَادُ إِنْ كُنْتُ لأَرَاكَ مِنْ أَفْقَهِ رَجُلٍ بِالْمَدِينَةِ أَوَلَيْسَ هَذِهِ الْيَهُودُ وَالنَّصَارَى يَقْرَءُونَ التَّوْرَاةَ وَالإِنْجِيلَ لاَ يَعْمَلُونَ بِشَىْءٍ مِمَّا فِيهِمَا " .
It was narrated that Ziyad bin Labid said: “The Prophet (PBUH)mentioned something and said: ‘That will be at the time whenknowledge(of Qur’an) disappears.’ I said: ‘O Messenger ofAllah, how willknowledge disappear when we read the Qur’an andteach it to ourchildren, until the Day of Resurrection?’ He said:‘May your mother bebereft of you, Ziyad! I thought that you werethe wisest man in Al-Madinah. Is it not the case that these Jews andChristians read theTawrah and the Injil, but they do not act uponanything of what is inthem?’” Translation Not Available
