Sunan Ibn Majah 56 (Book) #36958
The Dangers of Following Personal Opinions

SUMMARY: The hadith is about how the Children of Israel went astray when they started to follow their own opinions instead of the teachings of Allah.

It was narrated that 'Abdullah bin 'Amr bin 'As said: "I heard the Messenger of Allah say: 'The affairs of the Children of Israel remained fair until Muwalladun emerged among them - the children of female slaves from other nations. They spoke of their own opinions (in religious matters) and so they went astray and led others astray'."
حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي الرِّجَالِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو الأَوْزَاعِيِّ، عَنْ عَبْدَةَ بْنِ أَبِي لُبَابَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ـ ـ يَقُولُ ‏ "‏ لَمْ يَزَلْ أَمْرُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مُعْتَدِلاً حَتَّى نَشَأَ فِيهِمُ الْمُوَلَّدُونَ أَبْنَاءُ سَبَايَا الأُمَمِ فَقَالُوا بِالرَّأْىِ فَضَلُّوا وَأَضَلُّوا

Follow what Allah has taught us .

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith talks about how the affairs and religious practices among the Children of Israel were good until a group called Muwalladun emerged. These were children born from female slaves from other nations who began to speak their own opinions in religious matters. As a result they went astray and led others astray as well. This hadith teaches us that it is important to follow what Allah has taught us and not rely on our own opinions or those from outside sources as this can lead us away from the truth. We should always strive to learn more about our faith so that we can stay on the right path and be guided by Allah's teachings only.
