4240. It was narrated from Abū Wā'il, from Hudhaifah who said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ stood before us, and he did not omit anything that will happen before the Hour begins, but he spoke of it. Those who memorized it, memorized it, and those who forgot it, forgot it. These companions of mine know it, and if I have forgotten anything, I will recognize it if I see it, just as a man recognizes the face of a man who has been away, then when he sees him he recognizes him." (Saḥīḥ)

4240 - حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ، عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ، قَالَ: «قَامَ فِينَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَائِمًا، فَمَا تَرَكَ شَيْئًا يَكُونُ فِي مَقَامِهِ ذَلِكَ إِلَى قِيَامِ السَّاعَةِ إِلَّا حَدَّثَهُ، حَفِظَهُ مَنْ حَفِظَهُ، وَنَسِيَهُ مَنْ نَسِيَهُ، قَدْ عَلِمَهُ أَصْحَابُهُ هَؤُلَاءِ، وَإِنَّهُ لَيَكُونُ مِنْهُ الشَّيْءُ، فَأَذْكُرُهُ كَمَا يَذْكُرُ الرَّجُلُ وَجْهَ الرَّجُلِ إِذَا غَابَ عَنْهُ، ثُمَّ إِذَا رَآهُ عَرَفَهُ»

4242. It was narrated that ‘Umayr bin Hānī’ Al-Ansī said: “I heard ‘Abdullāh bin ‘Umar saying: ‘We were sitting with the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ and he mentioned tribulations, and spoke at length about them, until he mentioned Fitnatal-Ahlās. Someone said: “O Messenger of Allāh, what is Fitnatal-Ahlās?” He said: “People will flee, then there will be war. Then will come Fitnatas-Sarrā, which will emerge, because of a man from among my family, who will claim that he is of me, but he will not be of me, for my friends are the people of Taqwā. Then the people will unite under a man like a hip bone over a rib (unstable). Then there will come Fitnatud-Duhaimā’ (a huge tribulation), which will not leave anyone of this Ummah without giving him a slap. When it is said that it is over, it will be extended, and a man will have arisen a believer in the morning, and come upon the evening as a disbeliever, until the people are split into two camps: the camp of Faith in which there will be no hypocrisy, and the camp of hypocrisy in which there will be no Faith. When that happens, then expect the Dajjāl on that day or the next.” (Sahih)

4243. It was narrated from a son of Qabiṣah bin Dhu'aib, from his father, who said: "Hudhaifah bin Al-Yamān said: 'By Allāh, I do not know whether my companions forgot, or Allāh caused them to forget. By Allāh, the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ did not omit any leader of Fitnah (tribulation) until the world ends, each of whom will have three hundred or more men with him, but he mentioned him by his name, the name of his father and the name of his tribe.”” (Hasan)

4244. It was narrated from Abū ‘Awānah, from Qatādah, from Naṣr bin ‘Āsim, that Subaī bin Khālid said: “I came to Al-Kūfah at the time when Tustar was conquered, to bring some mules from it. I entered the Masjid and saw some men of average stature. And there was a man sitting there who, if you saw him, you would recognize as being a man from the Hijāz. I said: ‘Who is this? The people frowned at me, and said: ‘Do you not recognize him? This is Hudhaifah bin Al-Yamān, the Companion of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ.’ Hudhaifah said: ‘The people used to ask the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ about good, but I used to ask him about evil.’ And the people gazed at him. He said: ‘I understand why you find it strange. I said: “O Messenger of Allāh, do you think that after this good that Allāh has given to us, there will be any evil like there was before it?" He said: "Yes." I said: "What is the protection from that?" He said: "The sword." [Qutaibah said in his Hadīth: I said: "Will the sword have any say?" He said: "Yes." I said: "What?" He said: "A calm upon smoke." ][1] I said: "O Messenger of Allāh, then what will happen?" He said: "If Allāh, Most High, has a Khalifah in the earth and he strikes your back and takes your wealth (unlawfully), nevertheless obey him, otherwise die when you are clinging to the stump of a tree." I said: "Then what?" He said: "Then the Dajjāl will emerge, with a river and a fire. Whoever falls into his fire will be assured of his reward, and will be relieved of his burden (of sin), but whoever falls into his river will be assured of his burden (of sin) and deprived of his reward." I said: "Then what?" He said: "Then will come the onset of the Hour." (Hasan)

4246. It was narrated from Humaid, from Naṣr bin 'Āṣim Al-Laithī, who said: "We came to Al-Yashkurī with a group of people from Banū Laith. He said: 'Who are these people?' We said: 'Banū Laith; we have come to you to ask you about the Hadīth of Hudhaifah.' So he quoted the Hadīth. He said: 'We came back with Abū Mūsā and the price of animals went up in Al-Kūfah.' He said: 'A companion of mine and I asked Abū Mūsā (for permission), and he gave us permission, and we came to Al-Kūfah. I said to my companion: "I am going to enter the Masjid and when trading starts, I will come out to you." So I entered the Masjid and saw a circle (of people) there, as if their heads had been cut off, listening to a man speaking. I went to them, and a man came, and he stood beside me. I said: "Who is this?" He said: "Are you from Al-Baṣrah?" I said: “Yes.” He said: “I knew that if you were from Al-Kūfah you would not ask who this is.” I drew closer, and I heard Hudhaifah say: “The people used to ask the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ about good, but I used to ask him about evil, because I knew that I had not missed out on this good. I said: ‘O Messenger of Allāh, will there be any evil after this good?’ He said: ‘O Hudhaifah, learn the Book of Allāh and follow what is in it,’ three times. I said: ‘O Messenger of Allāh, will there be any evil after this good?’ He said: ‘O Hudhaifah, learn the Book of Allāh and follow what is in it.’” and he quoted the Hadīth. I said: ‘O Messenger of Allāh, will there be any evil after this good?’ He said: ‘Tribulation and evil.’ I said: ‘O Messenger of Allāh, will there be any good after this evil?’ He said: ‘O Hudhaifah, learn the Book of Allāh and follow what is in it,’ three times. I said: ‘O Messenger of Allāh, will there be any good after this evil?’ He said: ‘A calm upon smoke, and a group upon dust.’ I said: ‘O Messenger of Allāh, the calm – what is it?’ He said: ‘The hearts of the people will not be restored to the way they were.’[1] I said: ‘O Messenger of Allāh, will there be any evil after this good?’ He said: ‘A tribulation which will blind and deafen people to the truth, in which there will be callers at the gates of the Fire. If you die, O Hudhaifah, clinging to the stump of a tree, that will be better for you than following any one of them.”) (Sahih)

4248. It was narrated from 'Abdur-Rahmān bin 'Abdi Rabb Al-Ka'bah, from 'Abdullāh bin 'Amr that the Prophet ﷺ said: "Whoever pledges allegiance to an Imām, giving him his hand with sincerity, let him obey him if he can. If another comes and disputes with him, then strike the neck of the other one." I said: "Did you hear this from the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ?" He said: "My ears heard it, and my heart understood it." I said: "This cousin of yours, Mu'āwiyah, he tells us to do such and such." He said: "Obey him if it involves obedience to Allāh, and disobey him if it involves disobedience to Allāh.” (Saḥīḥ)

English translation

4252. It was narrated that Thawbān said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'Allāh, Most High, folded the ends of the earth together for me to see,' or he said: 'My Lord folded the ends of the earth together for me to see, and I saw its eastern and western lands, and the dominion of my Ummah will reach as far as that which was drawn together for me to see. And I have been given two treasures, the red and the white. I asked my Lord not to let my Ummah be destroyed by a widespread famine, and not to send against them an enemy that is not of them, that would destroy them utterly. My Lord said: "O Muhammad, when I decree something, it cannot be altered. I have granted you that your Ummah will not be destroyed by widespread famine, and I will not send against them an enemy that is not of them that would destroy them utterly, even if all people from all regions were to come together (to destroy them). But some of them will destroy others and some will take others captive." What I fear for my Ummah is misguiding leaders. If the sword is wielded among my Ummah, it will never be withdrawn from them until the Day of Resurrection. The Hour will not begin until some tribes of my Ummah join the idolaters, and some tribes of my Ummah worship idols. There will be among my Ummah thirty liars, each of whom will claim to be a prophet, but I am the Last of the Prophets, there will be no Prophet after me. A group among my Ummah will continue to follow the truth – Ibn ‘Eisā (one of the narrators) said; “prevailing”, then the two reports concur – and they will not be harmed by those who oppose them, until the decree of Allāh, Most High, comes to pass.”” (Sahih)

Muslim bin Abī Bakrah narrated that his father said: “The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: ‘There will be a tribulation in which the one who is lying down will be better than the one who is sitting, and the one who is sitting will be better than the one who is standing, and the one who is standing will be better than the one who is walking, and the one who is walking will be better than the one who is running.' He said: 'O Messenger of Allāh, what do you enjoin me to do?' He said: 'Whoever has camels (in the wilderness), let him go and stay with his camels, and whoever has sheep, let him go and stay with his sheep, and whoever has land, let him go and stay on his land.' He said: 'What about the one who does not have any of that?' He said: 'Let him take his sword and strike its edge on a rock, then let him escape if he can.'" (Ṣaḥīḥ)

And Yazīd[1] recited the: "If you do stretch your hand against me to kill me, I shall never stretch my hand against you to kill you: for I fear Allāh, the Lord of the ‘Ālamūn (mankind, jinn, and all that exists)”).[1] (Hasan)

4258. It was narrated from Wābiṣah that Ibn Mas’ūd said: “I heard the Prophet ﷺ say...” and he mentioned some of the Hadīth of Abū Bakrah. He said: “The slain (of that Fitnah) will be in the Fire.” He said: “I asked: ‘When will that be, O Ibn Mas’ūd?’ He said: ‘Those will be the days of Harj when no man will trust his companion.’ I said: ‘What do you enjoin me to do if I live until that time?’ He said: ‘Restrain your tongue and your hand, and keep to your house.’ When Uthmān was killed, I felt that the time had come, and I rode until I reached Damascus, where I met Khuraim bin Fāṭik and told him this Hadīth. He swore by Allāh, besides Whom there is none worthy of worship, that he had heard from the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ what Ibn Mas’ūd had told me.” (Da’if)

4259. It was narrated that Abū Mūsā Al-Ash’arī said: “The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'Ahead of the Hour there will be tribulations like parts of dark night, in which a man will be a believer in the morning and a disbeliever in the evening, or he will be a believer in the evening and a disbeliever in the morning. The one who is sitting during (that Fitnah) will be better than the one who is standing, and the one who is walking during it will be better than the one who is running. Break your bows, cut your bowstrings and strike your swords on stones. If anyone enters upon any one of you, then let him be like the better of the two sons of Ādam.'" (Hasan)

When he had moved on he said: 'And I do not regard him as anything other than doomed. I heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ say: "Whoever goes to a man of my Ummah to kill him, let him do like this [meaning, stretch out his neck], for the killer will be in the Fire, and the victim will be in Paradise.” (Da'if) Abū Dāwūd said: Ath-Thawrī reported it from ‘Awn, from ‘Abdur-Raḥmān bin Sumair, or Sumairah. Laith bin Abī Sulaim reported it from ‘Awn, from ‘Abdur-Raḥmān bin Sumairah. Abū Dāwūd said: Al-Ḥasan bin ‘Alī said to me: “Abū Al-Walīd narrated to us,” meaning, with this Hadīth, “from Abū ‘Awānah.” And he said: “It is in my book as ‘Ibn Sabrah,’ and they say: ‘Samrah,’ and they (also) say; ‘Sumairah.’” This is the statement of Abū Al-Walīd.

4261. It was narrated that Abū Dharr said: “The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said to me: ‘O Abū Dharr!’ I said: ‘Here I am at your service, O Messenger of Allāh.’” And he mentioned the Hadīth, in which he said: “How will you be when death befalls the people and a house” – meaning, a grave – “will be equivalent in value to a slave?” I said: “Allāh and His Messenger know best,” or “whatever Allāh and His Messenger choose for me.” He said: “You must be patient.” Then he said to me: “O Abū Dharr!” I said: “Here I am, at your service, O Messenger of Allāh.” He said: “How will you be when you see Ahjār Az-Zait (an area in Al-Madinah) covered with blood?” I said: “Whatever Allāh and His Messenger choose for me." He said: "You must stay with your family and your tribe." I said: "O Messenger of Allāh, should I not take my sword and put it on my shoulder?" He said: "In that case you would have participated (in tribulation) with the people." I said: "What do you tell me to do?" He said: "Stay in your house." I said: "What if someone enters my house?" He said: "If you are afraid that the gleam of the sword may dazzle you, then cover your face with your garment and he (the one who kills you) will bear the burden of his sin and yours." (Hasan)

It was narrated that Abū Kabshah said: "I heard Abū Mūsā say: The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Ahead of you, there lie tribulations, like pieces of the dark night, in which a man will be a believer in the morning and a disbeliever in the evening, or he will be a believer in the evening and a disbeliever in the morning. The one who is sitting will be better than the one who is standing, and the one who is standing will be better than the one who is walking, and the one who is walking will be better than the one who is running." They said: "What do you enjoin us to do?" He said: "Stay in your houses." (Hasan)

It was narrated that Khālid bin Dihqān said: We were on the campaign to Constantinople in Dhuluqyah, when a man from Palestine, one of their prominent and righteous men, came, and they recognized his status. He was called Hāni' bin Kulthūm bin Sharik Al-Kināni. He greeted 'Abdullāh bin Abī Zakariyyā - who acknowledged his status.' Khālid told us: 'Abdullāh bin Abī Zakariyyā told us: I heard Umm Ad-Dardā' say: I heard Abū Ad-Dardā' say: I heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ say: "Allāh may forgive every sin, except for one who dies in a state of Shirk, or a believer who kills another believer deliberately." Hāni' bin Kulthūm said: "I heard Maḥmūd bin Ar-Rabi' narrating that he heard 'Ubādah bin Aṣ-Ṣāmit narrating, that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'Whoever kills a believer unjustly, Allāh will not accept any obligatory (Sarf) or voluntary (Adl) deed from him.'"[1] Khālid said to us: "Then Ibn Abī Zakariyyā narrated to us, from Umm Ad-Dardā', from Abū Ad-Dardā', that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'The believer will continue to move rapidly and smoothly so long as he does not shed forbidden blood. But if he sheds forbidden blood, he will be unable to move.”[1] And Hānī’ bin Kulthūm narrated a similar report from Maḥmūd bin Ar-Rabī’, from ‘Ubādah bin Aṣ-Ṣāmit, from the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ.

4271. It was narrated from Ṣadaqah bin Khālid, or other than him, from Khālid bin Dihqān, who said: “I asked Yaḥyā bin Yaḥyā Al-Ghassānī about the phrase ‘kills a believer unjustly’. He said: ‘(It refers to) those who fight during times of tribulation, and one of them kills (someone) thinking that he is doing the right thing, so he does not ask Allāh for forgiveness for that.’” (Ṣaḥīh) Abū Dāwūd said: And he sheds blood unjustly and profusely.

4273. It was narrated from Al-Hakam, that Sa'eed bin Jubair said: "I asked Ibn 'Abbās, and he said: 'When the Verse in Al-Furqān - And those who invoke not any other Ilāh (god) along with Allāh, nor kill such person as Allāh has forbidden, except for just cause[1] - was revealed, the idolaters of Makkah said: "We have killed such people as Allāh has forbidden, and we have invoked other gods along with Allāh, and we have committed illegal sexual intercourse," so Allāh revealed the Words: "Except those who repent and believe, and do righteous deeds; for those, Allāh will change their sins into good deeds".[2] This is meant for them. As for the verse in An-Nisā' - And whoever kills a believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell[3] - (this refers to) a man who knows the laws of Islam, then he kills a believer deliberately; his recompense is Hell, and there is no repentance for him.' I mentioned this to Mujāhid, and he said: 'Unless he regrets it.'" (Ṣaḥīḥ) [1] Al-Furqān 25:68. [2] Al-Furqān 25:70. [3] An-Nisā' 4:93.
