The following rendition of Muhammad's '[[Farewell Sermon]]', along with a second version, was for many years quoted on Wikipedia without a primary source.  
The following rendition of Muhammad's '[[Farewell Sermon]]', along with a second version, was for many years quoted on Wikipedia without a primary source.  


It is quoted below, and consists of a loose synthesis by a modern author based on various hadiths, the sources of which are not entirely known. It has become popular due to including the lines from a hadith found in Musnad Ahmad ([http://dailyhadith.abuaminaelias.com/2011/12/30/farewell-sermon-your-lord-is-one-your-father-is-one-your-lives-are-sacred/ #22978], graded sahih by al-Albani<ref> [https://islamqa.info/ar/182686 islamqa.info]</ref>)"''an Arab has no superiority over a non-Arab nor a non-Arab has any superiority over an Arab; also a white has no superiority over black nor a black has any superiority over white except by piety and good action''".

However, this author's rendition also includes some lines about the treatment of women that are a heavily sanitized version of narrations of the farewell sermon found in a number of hadith collections and the Tafsir of al-Tabari in which Muhammad commands [[Wife_Beating_in_Islamic_Law|women to be beaten]] in certain circumstances.

Faizi 'derived' this version of the sermon from various unnamed books not accepted by the ulama (Islamic clerics). He does not know the original sources, but welcomes readers to help in his search.

Hadith references which are often cited as sources for this version of the sermon are either misrepresented (i.e. they have nothing to say on the sermon)<ref>See [{{Reference archive|1=http://bjhollingum.blogspot.com/2010/05/farewell-sermon.html|2=2011-03-01}} this] blog post titled, "The Farewell Sermon", for more details.</ref> or refer to the sermon that most fits al-Tabari's rendition with regard to beating women and such topics.<ref>For example; [{{Reference archive|1=http://www.quranandscience.com/jewels-from-prophet/240-the-last-sermon-khutbah-of-prophet-muhammad-farewell-sermon.html|2=2011-06-11}} this site] lists al-Tirmidhi as one of the sources. However in Tirmidhi we find the farewell command to beat women, and that they are "like prisoners" in the hands of men. The same is found in the farewell sermon in {{Abudawud||1900|hasan}}). It seems that Farzi has deliberately ommitted these words in the corresponding section of his version of the sermon.

The following [[The Farewell Sermon|authentic version]] is taken from ''al-Tabari, Vol IX'', and it's important to note that it is in perfect agreement with the Qur'anic order of wife-beating in {{Quran|4|34}}. By contrast, al-Tabari's writing is an early source relied upon by historians and Islamic clerics alike. Attempts to add this authentic version next to the other two at Wikipedia were met with resistance.<ref>After an April 2011 [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Khutbatul_Wada%27&oldid=427586954 Wikipedia discussion] concerning the lack of primary sources for the fraudulent sermons, they were finally removed from the site. But, as is often the case with Islam-related articles, the unreferenced material is constantly reinserted by Muslim editors.</ref>
