Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْد اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا حَيْوَةُ بْنُ شُرَيْحٍ حَدَّثَنِي بَقِيَّةُ حَدَّثَنِي ضُبَارَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ دُوَيْدِ بْنِ نَافِعٍ عَنْ مُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ لَهُ يَا مُعَاذُ أَنْ يَهْدِيَ اللَّهُ عَلَى يَدَيْكَ رَجُلًا مِنْ أَهْلِ الشِّرْكِ خَيْرٌ لَكَ مِنْ أَنْ يَكُونَ لَكَ حُمْرُ النَّعَمِ.
English Translation
Abdullah told us, my father told me, Hayat ibn Shurayh told us, Baqiyyah told me, Dubarah ibn Abdullah told me, from Duwayd ibn Nafi', from Mu'adh ibn Jabal, that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said to him, "O Mu'adh, that Allah guides a man of the people of polytheism through you is better for you than possessing red camels."
