English Translation
It was narrated from Abdullah ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: 'The Messenger of Allah ﷺ drew a line for us one day, then said: This is the path of Allah — straight. Then he drew lines to the right and left of it and said: These are other paths. On each of these paths is a devil calling people to it. Then he recited: And verily, this is My straight path, so follow it, and do not follow the other paths, for they will separate you from His path. (Quran 6:153)'
