Sahih al-Bukhari 4481 (Book 65, Hadith 8) #4269
The Importance of Following Prophet Muhammad's Teachings

SUMMARY: This hadith explains the importance of following the teachings of Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) and how Allah will replace any forgotten or abrogated verses with a better one.

Narrated Ibn 'Abbas: 'Umar said, "Our best Qur'an reciter is Ubai and our best judge is 'Ali; and in spite of this, we leave some of the statements of Ubai because Ubai says, 'I do not leave anything that I have heard from Allah's Messenger while Allah: "Whatever verse (Revelations) do We abrogate or cause to be forgotten but We bring a better one or similar to it". (2.106)
حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ حَبِيبٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ قَالَ عُمَرُ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ أَقْرَؤُنَا أُبَىٌّ، وَأَقْضَانَا عَلِيٌّ، وَإِنَّا لَنَدَعُ مِنْ قَوْلِ أُبَىٍّ، وَذَاكَ أَنَّ أُبَيًّا يَقُولُ لاَ أَدَعُ شَيْئًا سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ وَقَدْ قَالَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى ‏{‏مَا نَنْسَخْ مِنْ آيَةٍ أَوْ نَنْسَأْهَا‏}‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith explains the importance of following the teachings of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ and how Allah will replace any forgotten or abrogated verses with a better one. Umar said that Ubai was their best reciter and Ali was their best judge. However, they still left some statements from Ubai because he would not leave anything that he heard from Allah's Messenger ﷺ even though Allah says in Surah Al-Baqarah 2:106 "Whatever verse do We abrogate or cause to be forgotten but We bring a better one or similar to it". This hadith teaches us that we should always follow the teachings of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ as they are more important than anything else. It also reminds us that if we forget something from his teachings then Allah will replace it with something even better.
