Chapter 45 · Chapter on Parablesحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيل، حَدَّثَنَا خَلَّادُ بْنُ يَحْيَي، حَدَّثَنَا بَشِيرُ بْنُ الْمُهَاجِرِ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ بُرَيْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: هَلْ تَدْرُونَ مَا هَذِهِ وَمَا هَذِهِ ؟ وَرَمَى بِحَصَاتَيْنِ ، قَالُوا: اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ، قَالَ: هَذَاكَ الْأَمَلُ وَهَذَاكَ الْأَجَلُ ، قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى: هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ.

Narrated 'Abdullah bin Buraidah: from his father that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: Do you know what the parable of this and this is? - and he tossed two pebbles. They said: Allah and His Messenger (ﷺ) know better. He said: This (the farther) one is hope, and this (closer) one is death.
