THE EXAMPLE OF THE PROPHET, praise and peace be upon him

164

“My example and your example is as a man who kindles a fire and moths and insects rush toward it and fall in to it and I try to stop them. I hold you by your waists (to save you) from Hell, but you struggle escaping from my hands.”

Muslim with a chain up to Jabir who related that the Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, said this.
