Hadith 1:172
Isnād Hasan (Zubair `Aliza'i)
Abu Umama reported God’s messenger as saying, “No people have gone astray after following right guidance unless they have been led into disputation.” Then God’s messenger recited this verse, “They only put him forth to you as a matter of dispute; nay, they are a contentious people.” Ahmad, Tirmidhi, and Ibn Majah transmitted it. Quran xliii, 58.
وَعَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَا ضَلَّ قَوْمٌ بَعْدَ هُدًى كَانُوا عَلَيْهِ إِلَّا أُوتُوا الْجَدَلَ» . ثُمَّ قَرَأَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ: (مَا ضَرَبُوهُ لَكَ إِلَّا جدلا بل هم قوم خصمون) رَوَاهُ أَحْمد وَالتِّرْمِذِيّ وَابْن مَاجَه
