Sahih al-Bukhari 6440 (Book 81, Hadith 29) #6189
Misconception of Quranic Verses

SUMMARY: The hadith is about how the people of Medina thought that a saying was from the Quran until a Surah was revealed which proved otherwise.

'Ubayy said , "We considered this as a saying from the Qur'an till the Surah (beginning with): "The mutual rivalry (for piling up of worldly things) diverts you' (102:1) was revealed".
وَقَالَ لَنَا أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، عَنْ أُبَىٍّ، قَالَ كُنَّا نَرَى هَذَا مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ حَتَّى نَزَلَتْ ‏{‏أَلْهَاكُمُ التَّكَاثُرُ‏}‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith talks about how the people of Medina believed that a certain saying was part of the Quran, until they were proven wrong when a new surah was revealed. This shows us that we should not take any sayings as part of the Quran unless it has been confirmed by an official source. We should also be careful to not make assumptions and instead rely on authentic sources for our knowledge. It also teaches us to be humble and accept when we are wrong, as it is better than being stubborn and continuing with our false beliefs.
