وَحَدَّثَنِي عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْقَوَارِيرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ، عَنْ غَيْلاَنَ، بْنِ جَرِيرٍ عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ رِيَاحٍ الْقَيْسِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِنَحْوِ حَدِيثِ جَرِيرٍ وَقَالَ " لاَ يَتَحَاشَى مِنْ مُؤْمِنِهَا " .

Summary of Sahih Muslim Hadith 1848b
This hadith is a second chain for the same warning about obedience, the Jamaah, and harmful fighting. Its wording points again to the danger of not avoiding harm to believers. The main idea remains the same: a Muslim should not leave obedience, split from the main body, or fight for blind group anger. The hadith also keeps attention on the safety of believers and the seriousness of attacking the Ummah without care. For search terms like hadith about leaving the Jamaah and death of Jahiliyyah hadith, this narration supports the same core lesson in a slightly different wording. It teaches that community order, restraint, and honoring people’s rights are not small matters.
What we learn from this hadith
- The narration reinforces the warning against splitting from the Jamaah.
- Believers must not be treated carelessly in conflict.
- Blind group anger is not a sound reason for fighting.
- The repeated chain shows the same message with a slight wording difference.
