حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، حَدَّثَنَا عُقَيْلٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ، وَأَبِي، سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالاَ سَمِعْنَا أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ يَقُولُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ بَيْنَمَا رَاعٍ فِي غَنَمِهِ عَدَا الذِّئْبُ فَأَخَذَ مِنْهَا شَاةً، فَطَلَبَهَا حَتَّى اسْتَنْقَذَهَا، فَالْتَفَتَ إِلَيْهِ الذِّئْبُ فَقَالَ لَهُ مَنْ لَهَا يَوْمَ السَّبُعِ، لَيْسَ لَهَا رَاعٍ غَيْرِي‏"‏. فَقَالَ النَّاسُ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ. فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ فَإِنِّي أُومِنُ بِهِ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ ‏"‏ وَمَا ثَمَّ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ.

English translation
Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "Whilst a shepherd was amongst his sheep, a wolf attacked them and took away a sheep. The shepherd chased it and got that sheep freed from the wolf. The wolf turned towards the shepherd and said, 'Who will guard the sheep on the day of wild animals when it will have no shepherd except myself?" The people said, "Glorified be Allah." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "But I believe in it and so do Abu Bakr and `Umar although Abu Bakr and `Umar were not present there (at the place of the event)
বাংলা অনুবাদ
আবূ হুরাইরাহ্ (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, আল্লাহর রাসূল সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেছেন, একদা এক রাখাল তার বকরীর পালের সঙ্গে ছিল। হঠাৎ একটি নেকড়ে বাঘ পাল আক্রমণ করে একটি বকরী নিয়ে গেল। রাখাল বাঘের পিছে দৌড়ে বকরীকে উদ্ধার করে আনল। তখন বাঘ রাখালকে বলল, যখন আমি ছাড়া অন্য কেউ থাকবে না তখন হিংস্র জন্তুদের আক্রমণ হতে তাদের কে রক্ষা করবে? সাহাবীগণ বললেন, সুবহানাল্লাহ। তখন নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বললেন, আমি এটা বিশ্বাস করি এবং আবূ বাকর ও উমরও বিশ্বাস করে। অথচ আবূ বাকর ও ‘উমার (রাঃ) সেখানে উপস্থিত ছিলেন না। (২৩২৪) (আধুনিক প্রকাশনীঃ ৩৪১৫, ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশনঃ)
