حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ بَشِيرِ بْنِ ذَكْوَانَ الدِّمَشْقِيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ يَعْنِى ابْنَ زَبْرٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي الْمُطَاعِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ سَمِعْتُ الْعِرْبَاضَ بْنَ سَارِيَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏يَقُولُ:‏‏‏‏ قَامَ فِينَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَوَعَظَنَا مَوْعِظَةً بَلِيغَةً وَجِلَتْ مِنْهَا الْقُلُوبُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَذَرَفَتْ مِنْهَا الْعُيُونُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقِيلَ:‏‏‏‏ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَعَظْتَنَا مَوْعِظَةَ مُوَدِّعٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَاعْهَدْ إِلَيْنَا بِعَهْدٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ عَلَيْكُمْ بِتَقْوَى اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَالسَّمْعِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَالطَّاعَةِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَإِنْ عَبْدًا حَبَشِيًّا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَسَتَرَوْنَ مِنْ بَعْدِي اخْتِلَافًا شَدِيدًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَعَلَيْكُمْ بِسُنَّتِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَسُنَّةِ الْخُلَفَاءِ الرَّاشِدِينَ الْمَهْدِيِّينَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَضُّوا عَلَيْهَا بِالنَّوَاجِذِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَإِيَّاكُمْ وَالْأُمُورَ الْمُحْدَثَاتِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَإِنَّ كُلَّ بِدْعَةٍ ضَلَالَةٌ .

I heard 'Irbad bin Sariyah رضی اللہ عنہ say: 'One day, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) stood up among us and delivered a deeply moving speech to us that melted our hearts and caused our eyes to overflow with tears. It was said to him: 'O Messenger of Allah, you have delivered a speech of farewell, so enjoin something upon us.' He said: 'I urge you to fear Allah, and to listen and obey, even if (your leader) is an Abyssinian slave. After I am gone, you will see great conflict. I urge you to adhere to my Sunnah and the path of the Rightly-Guided Caliphs, and cling stubbornly to it. And beware of newly-invented matters, for every innovation is a going astray.'
