حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا زَكَرِيَّاءُ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَامِرًا، يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ النُّعْمَانَ بْنَ بَشِيرٍ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏ "‏ مَثَلُ الْقَائِمِ عَلَى حُدُودِ اللَّهِ وَالْوَاقِعِ فِيهَا كَمَثَلِ قَوْمٍ اسْتَهَمُوا عَلَى سَفِينَةٍ، فَأَصَابَ بَعْضُهُمْ أَعْلاَهَا وَبَعْضُهُمْ أَسْفَلَهَا، فَكَانَ الَّذِينَ فِي أَسْفَلِهَا إِذَا اسْتَقَوْا مِنَ الْمَاءِ مَرُّوا عَلَى مَنْ فَوْقَهُمْ فَقَالُوا لَوْ أَنَّا خَرَقْنَا فِي نَصِيبِنَا خَرْقًا، وَلَمْ نُؤْذِ مَنْ فَوْقَنَا. فَإِنْ يَتْرُكُوهُمْ وَمَا أَرَادُوا هَلَكُوا جَمِيعًا، وَإِنْ أَخَذُوا عَلَى أَيْدِيهِمْ نَجَوْا وَنَجَوْا جَمِيعًا ‏"‏.

English translation
Narrated An-Nu`man bin Bashir: The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "The example of the person abiding by Allah's order and restrictions in comparison to those who violate them is like the example of those persons who drew lots for their seats in a boat. Some of them got seats in the upper part, and the others in the lower. When the latter needed water, they had to go up to bring water (and that troubled the others), so they said, 'Let us make a hole in our share of the ship (and get water) saving those who are above us from troubling them. So, if the people in the upper part left the others do what they had suggested, all the people of the ship would be destroyed, but if they prevented them, both parties would be safe
বাংলা অনুবাদ
নু‘মান ইবনু বাশীর (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত। নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেছেন, যে মহান আল্লাহর নির্ধারিত সীমার মধ্যে প্রতিষ্ঠিত থাকে এবং যে সীমা লঙ্ঘন করে, তাদের দৃষ্টান্ত সেই যাত্রীদলের মতো, যারা কুরআ’র মাধ্যমে এক নৌযানে নিজেদের স্থান নির্ধারণ করে নিল। তাদের কেউ স্থান পেল উপর তলায় আর কেউ নীচ তলায় (পানির ব্যবস্থা ছিল উপর তলায়) কাজেই নীচের তলার লোকেরা পানি সংগ্রহ কালে উপর তলার লোকদের ডিঙ্গিয়ে যেত। তখন নীচ তলার লোকেরা বলল, উপর তলার লোকেদের কষ্ট না দিয়ে আমরা যদি নিজেদের অংশে একটি ছিদ্র করে নেই (তবে ভালো হয়) এমতাবস্থায় তারা যদি এদেরকে আপন মর্জির উপর ছেড়ে দেয় তাহলে সবাই ধ্বংস হয়ে যাবে। আর যদি তারা এদের হাত ধরে রাখে (বিরত রাখে) তবে তারা এবং সকলেই রক্ষা পাবে। (২৬৮৬) (আধুনিক প্রকাশনীঃ ২৩১৪, ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশনঃ)
