[4711] 10 - (1822) It was narrated that 'Amir bin Sa'd bin Abî Waqqâs said: I sent a letter to Jâbir bin Samurah with my slave Nâfi', saying: Tell me of something that you heard from the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ. He wrote back to me saying: I heard the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ one Friday, the day on which the Aslamî was stoned, saying: "This religion will continue until the Hour begins, or until there have been twelve caliphs over you, all of them from the Quraish." And I heard him say: "A small group of Muslims will conquer the white palace, the palace of Chosroes, or of the family of Chosroes." And I heard him say: "Just before the Hour there will be liars, so beware of them." And I heard him say: "If Allâh bestows something good upon one of you, let him start with himself and his family.” And I heard him say: “I will reach the Cistern ahead of you.”
