English translation

2865. It was narrated from 'Abdullâh bin Mas'ud that the Prophet ﷺ said: "Among those in charge of you, after I am gone, will be men who extinguish the Sunnah and follow innovation. They will delay the prayer from its proper time." I said: "O Messenger of Allâh, if I live to see them, what should I do?" He said: "You ask me, O Ibn Umm 'Abd, what you should do? There is no obedience to one who disobeys Allâh." (Hasan)

Arabic text

2865 - حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سُلَيْمٍ، ح وحَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ خُثَيْمٍ، عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «سَيَلِي أُمُورَكُمْ بَعْدِي، رِجَالٌ يُطْفِئُونَ السُّنَّةَ، وَيَعْمَلُونَ بِالْبِدْعَةِ، وَيُؤَخِّرُونَ الصَّلَاةَ عَنْ مَوَاقِيتِهَا» فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنْ أَدْرَكْتُهُمْ، كَيْفَ أَفْعَلُ؟ قَالَ: «تَسْأَلُنِي يَا ابْنَ أُمِّ عَبْدٍ كَيْفَ تَفْعَلُ؟ لَا طَاعَةَ، لِمَنْ عَصَى اللَّهَ»

Commentary

It was always the practice of the righteous scholars in every period that they remain steadfast in following the Sunnah and preaching it against the deviation of governments. They proclaim the truth loudly without being impressed by the oppression or temptation; such as Imâm Mâlik, ﷺ, in the matter of a divorce issued in the state of compulsion, and Imâm Ahmad, ﷺ in the matter of Khalq Qur'ân, both demonstrated their steadfastness.
