English translation

[5977] 31 - (...) It was narrated that 'Uqbah bin 'Âmir said: "The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ prayed for those who had been slain at Uḥud, then he ascended the Minbar like one who was bidding farewell to the living and the dead. He said: 'I will reach the Cistern ahead of you, and its width is like the distance between Aylah and Al-Juhfah. I do not fear that you will associate others with Allāh after I am gone, but I fear that you will compete with one another for worldly gains and you will fight one another and be destroyed as those who came before you were destroyed.'" 'Uqbah said: "That was the last thing I heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ say on the Minbar."

Arabic text

31 - (2296) وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا وَهْبٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ جَرِيرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، قَالَ:، سَمِعْتُ يَحْيَى بْنَ أَيُّوبَ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ، عَنْ مَرْثَدٍ، عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ، قَالَ صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: عَلَى قَتْلَى أُحُدٍ، ثُمَّ صَعِدَ الْمِنْبَرَ كَالْمُوَدِّعِ لِلْأَحْيَاءِ وَالْأَمْوَاتِ، فَقَالَ: «إِنِّي فَرَطُكُمْ عَلَى الْحَوْضِ، وَإِنَّ عَرْضَهُ كَمَا بَيْنَ أَيْلَةَ إِلَى الْجُحْفَةِ، إِنِّي لَسْتُ أَخْشَى عَلَيْكُمْ أَنْ تُشْرِكُوا بَعْدِي، وَلَكِنِّي أَخْشَى عَلَيْكُمُ الدُّنْيَا أَنْ تَنَافَسُوا فِيهَا، وَتَقْتَتِلُوا، فَتَهْلِكُوا، كَمَا هَلَكَ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ» قَالَ عُقْبَةُ: «فَكَانَتْ آخِرَ مَا رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ»
