Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ قَالَ عَلْقَمَةُ بْنُ مَرْثَدٍ أَنْبَأَنِي قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا الرَّبِيعِ يُحَدِّثُ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ أَرْبَعٌ فِي أُمَّتِي لَنْ يَدَعُوهَا التَّطَاعُنُ فِي الْأَنْسَابِ وَالنِّيَاحَةُ وَمُطِرْنَا بِنَوْءِ كَذَا وَكَذَا اشْتَرَيْتَ بَعِيرًا أَجْرَبَ أَوْ فَجَرِبَ فَجَعَلْتَهُ فِي مِائَةِ بَعِيرٍ فَجَرِبَتْ مَنْ أَعْدَى الْأَوَّلَ.

Affan narrated to us, Shu'bah narrated to us, he said: Alqamah ibn Marthad informed me, he said: I heard Abu al-Rabi' narrating that he heard Abu Hurayrah, from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) who said: "Four things in my Ummah they will never abandon: boasting about lineage, wailing over the dead, attributing rain to the stars saying 'we were given rain by such and such star,' and saying 'I bought a mangy camel and put it among a hundred camels and they all got mange - who infected the first one?'"
