Sahih Muslim 2809a

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الأَعْلَى، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ "‏ مَثَلُ الْمُؤْمِنِ كَمَثَلِ الزَّرْعِ لاَ تَزَالُ الرِّيحُ تُمِيلُهُ وَلاَ يَزَالُ الْمُؤْمِنُ يُصِيبُهُ الْبَلاَءُ وَمَثَلُ الْمُنَافِقِ كَمَثَلِ شَجَرَةِ الأَرْزِ لاَ تَهْتَزُّ حَتَّى تَسْتَحْصِدَ ‏"‏ .

Narrator: Abu Huraira

English translation
Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying: The Similitude of a believer is that of (a standing) crop which the air continues to toss from one side to another; in the same way a believer always (receives the strokes) of misfortune. The similitude of a hypocrite is that of a cypress tree which does not move until it is uprooted
বাংলা অনুবাদ
আবূ বাকর ইবনু আবূ শাইবাহ্ (রহঃ) ..... আবু হুরাইরাহ (রাযিঃ) থেকে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, রসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেছেনঃ মুমিনের দৃষ্টান্ত শস্যক্ষেতের মতো। বাতাস সবসময় তাকে আন্দোলিত করে। অনুরূপভাবে মুমিনের উপরও সবসময় বিপদাপদ আসতে থাকে। আর মুনাফিকের দৃষ্টান্ত দেবদারু গাছের মতো। মূল উৎপাটন হয়ে যায়; কিন্তু সেটা আন্দোলিত হয় না। (ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশন ৬৮৩৩, ইসলামিক সেন্টার)

Sahih Muslim 2809b

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ، وَعَبْدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّزَّاقِ، حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ غَيْرَ أَنَّ فِي، حَدِيثِ عَبْدِ الرَّزَّاقِ مَكَانَ قَوْلِهِ تُمِيلُهُ ‏ "‏ تُفِيئُهُ ‏"‏ .

This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Zuhri with the same chain of transmitters, but with a slight variation of wording
বাংলা অনুবাদ
মুহাম্মাদ ইবনু রাফি ও আবদ ইবনু হুমায়দ (রহঃ) ..... যুহরী (রহঃ) থেকে এ সূত্রে অবিকল হাদীস বর্ণনা করেছেন। তবে আবদুর রাযযাক এর হাদীসে تُمِيلُهُ এর স্থলে تُفِيئُهُ উল্লেখ রয়েছে (উভয়ের অর্থ একই, অর্থাৎ আন্দোলিত করে)। (ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশন ৬৮৩৪, ইসলামিক সেন্টার)
