English translation
[7258] 19 - (2889) It was narrated that Thawbān said: The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Allāh drew the ends of the earth together for me to see, and I saw its eastern and western lands, and I saw that 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 let them be dominated by an enemy, that is not of them, that would destroy them utterly. My Lord said: 'O Muḥammad, when I decree something it cannot be altered. I have granted you that your Ummah will not be destroyed by a widespread famine, and it will not be dominated by 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.”
