[4957] 176 - (1924) 'Abdur-Raḥmân bin Shumâsah Al-Mahrî said: "I was with Maslamah bin Mukhallad, and 'Abdullâh bin 'Amr bin Al-'Âs was also with him. 'Abdullâh said: 'The Hour will not come except upon the worst of people, who are worse than the people of the Jâhiliyyah. They will not ask Allâh for anything but He will refuse their request.' While they were like that, 'Uqbah bin 'Âmir came, and Maslamah said to him: 'O 'Uqbah, listen to what 'Abdullâh is saying.' He said: 'He knows best; as for me, I heard the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ say: "A group of my Ummah will continue to fight to establish the command of Allâh, continuing to defeat their enemies and not being harmed by those who oppose them until the Hour comes upon them when they are like that.” ‘Abdullâh said: ‘Yes, then Allâh will send a wind like the fragrance of musk and with a touch like that of silk, and it will not leave any soul in whose heart is a grain of faith, but it will take it. Then the worst of people will be left, upon whom the Hour will come.’”

١٧٦ - (١٩٢٤) حَدَّثَنِي أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ وَهْبٍ. حَدَّثَنَا عَمِّي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ. حَدَّثَنَا عمرو بن الحارث. حدثني يزيد أَبِي حَبِيبٍ. حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ شِمَاسَةَ الْمَهْرِيُّ. قَالَ: كُنْتُ عِنْدَ مَسْلَمَةَ بْنِ مُخَلَّدٍ، وَعِنْدَهُ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ. فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ: لَا تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ إِلَّا عَلَى شِرَارِ الْخَلْقِ. هُمْ شَرٌّ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ. لَا يَدْعُونَ اللَّهَ بِشَيْءٍ إِلَّا رَدَّهُ عَلَيْهِمْ. فَبَيْنَمَا هُمْ عَلَى ذَلِكَ أَقْبَلَ عُقْبَةُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ. فَقَالَ لَهُ مَسْلَمَةُ: يَا عُقْبَةُ! اسْمَعْ مَا يَقُولُ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ. فَقَالَ عُقْبَةُ: هُوَ أَعْلَمُ. وَأَمَّا أَنَا فَسَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ (لَا تَزَالُ عِصَابَةٌ مِنْ أُمَّتِي يُقَاتِلُونَ عَلَى أَمْرِ اللَّهِ، قَاهِرِينَ لِعَدُوِّهِمْ، لَا يَضُرُّهُمْ مَنْ خَالَفَهُمْ، حَتَّى تَأْتِيَهُمُ السَّاعَةُ، وَهُمْ عَلَى ذَلِكَ). فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ: أَجَلْ. ثُمَّ يَبْعَثُ اللَّهُ رِيحًا كَرِيحِ الْمِسْكِ. مَسُّهَا مَسُّ الْحَرِيرِ. فَلَا تَتْرُكُ نَفْسًا فِي قَلْبِهِ مِثْقَالُ حَبَّةٍ مِنَ الْإِيمَانِ إِلَّا قَبَضَتْهُ. ثُمَّ يَبْقَى شِرَارُ النَّاسِ، عَلَيْهِمْ تَقُومُ الساعة.
