حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا وُهَيْبٌ، عَنْ خَالِدٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏ "‏ فُقِدَتْ أُمَّةٌ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ لاَ يُدْرَى مَا فَعَلَتْ، وَإِنِّي لاَ أُرَاهَا إِلاَّ الْفَارَ إِذَا وُضِعَ لَهَا أَلْبَانُ الإِبِلِ لَمْ تَشْرَبْ، وَإِذَا وُضِعَ لَهَا أَلْبَانُ الشَّاءِ شَرِبَتْ ‏"‏. فَحَدَّثْتُ كَعْبًا فَقَالَ أَنْتَ سَمِعْتَ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُهُ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ. قَالَ لِي مِرَارًا. فَقُلْتُ أَفَأَقْرَأُ التَّوْرَاةَ

Narrator: Abu Huraira

English translation
Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "A group of Israelites were lost. Nobody knows what they did. But I do not see them except that they were cursed and changed into rats, for if you put the milk of a she-camel in front of a rat, it will not drink it, but if the milk of a sheep is put in front of it, it will drink it." I told this to Ka`b who asked me, "Did you hear it from the Prophet (ﷺ) ?" I said, "Yes." Ka`b asked me the same question several times.; I said to Ka`b. "Do I read the Torah? (i.e. I tell you this from the Prophet)
বাংলা অনুবাদ
আবূ হুরাইরাহ্ (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত। নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেন, বনী ইসরাঈলের একদল লোক নিখোঁজ হয়েছিল। কেউ জানে না তাদের কী হলো আর আমি তাদেরকে ইঁদুর বলেই মনে করি। কেননা তাদের সামনে যখন উটের দুধ রাখা হয়, তারা তা পান করে না, আর যখন তাদের সামনে ছাগী দুগ্ধ রাখা হয় তখন তারা তা পান করে। [আবূ হুরাইরাহ্ (রাঃ) বলেন] আমি এ হাদীসটি কা‘বের নিকট বললাম, তিনি আমাকে জিজ্ঞেস করলেন আপনি কি এটা নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম-কে বলতে শুনেছেন? আমি বললাম, হ্যাঁ। অতঃপর তিনি কয়েকবার আমাকে এ কথাটি জিজ্ঞেস করলেন। তখন আমি বললাম, আমি কি তাওরাত কিতাব পড়েছি?(মুসলিম ৫৩/১১ হাঃ ২৯৯৭, আহমাদ ৭২০১) (আধুনিক প্রকাশনীঃ ৩০৬১, ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশনঃ)
