Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ أَخْبَرَنِي حُصَيْنٌ سَمِعْتُ مُجَاهِدًا يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِكُلِّ عَمَلٍ شِرَّةٌ وَلِكُلِّ شِرَّةٍ فَتْرَةٌ فَمَنْ كَانَتْ فَتْرَتُهُ إِلَى سُنَّتِي فَقَدْ أَفْلَحَ وَمَنْ كَانَتْ إِلَى غَيْرِ ذَلِكَ فَقَدْ هَلَكَ.
English Translation
Rawh told us: Shu'ba told us: Husayn informed me: I heard Mujahid narrating from Abdullah ibn Amr, who said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Every deed has a burst of energy, and every burst of energy is followed by a lull; whoever's lull inclines toward my Sunna has succeeded, and whoever's inclines toward other than that has perished."
