4657. It was narrated that Imran bin Husain said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'The best of my Ummah are the generation to whom I am sent, then those who come after them, then those who come after them.' Allāh knows best whether he mentioned the third time or not. 'Then there will appear people who will give testimony without being asked to do so, and they will make vows and not fulfill them, and they will be treacherous, and will not be trusted, and fatness will appear among them.'" (Sahih)
