أَخْبَرَنَا هَنَّادُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي مُعَاوِيَةَ عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ وَهْبٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَبْدِ رَبِّ الْکَعْبَةِ قَالَ انْتَهَيْتُ إِلَی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ فِي ظِلِّ الْکَعْبَةِ وَالنَّاسُ عَلَيْهِ مُجْتَمِعُونَ قَالَ فَسَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ بَيْنَا نَحْنُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي سَفَرٍ إِذْ نَزَلْنَا مَنْزِلًا فَمِنَّا مَنْ يَضْرِبُ خِبَائَهُ وَمِنَّا مَنْ يَنْتَضِلُ وَمِنَّا مَنْ هُوَ فِي جَشْرَتِهِ إِذْ نَادَی مُنَادِي النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الصَّلَاةُ جَامِعَةٌ فَاجْتَمَعْنَا فَقَامَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَخَطَبَنَا فَقَالَ إِنَّهُ لَمْ يَکُنْ نَبِيٌّ قَبْلِي إِلَّا کَانَ حَقًّا عَلَيْهِ أَنْ يَدُلَّ أُمَّتَهُ عَلَی مَا يَعْلَمُهُ خَيْرًا لَهُمْ وَيُنْذِرَهُمْ مَا يَعْلَمُهُ شَرًّا لَهُمْ وَإِنَّ أُمَّتَکُمْ هَذِهِ جُعِلَتْ عَافِيَتُهَا فِي أَوَّلِهَا وَإِنَّ آخِرَهَا سَيُصِيبُهُمْ بَلَائٌ وَأُمُورٌ يُنْکِرُونَهَا تَجِيئُ فِتَنٌ فَيُدَقِّقُ بَعْضُهَا لِبَعْضٍ فَتَجِيئُ الْفِتْنَةُ فَيَقُولُ الْمُؤْمِنُ هَذِهِ مُهْلِکَتِي ثُمَّ تَنْکَشِفُ ثُمَّ تَجِيئُ فَيَقُولُ هَذِهِ مُهْلِکَتِي ثُمَّ تَنْکَشِفُ فَمَنْ أَحَبَّ مِنْکُمْ أَنْ يُزَحْزَحَ عَنْ النَّارِ وَيُدْخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ فَلْتُدْرِکْهُ مَوْتَتُهُ وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ وَلْيَأْتِ إِلَی النَّاسِ مَا يُحِبُّ أَنْ يُؤْتَی إِلَيْهِ وَمَنْ بَايَعَ إِمَامًا فَأَعْطَاهُ صَفْقَةَ يَدِهِ وَثَمَرَةَ قَلْبِهِ فَلْيُطِعْهُ مَا اسْتَطَاعَ فَإِنْ جَائَ أَحَدٌ يُنَازِعُهُ فَاضْرِبُوا رَقَبَةَ الْآخَرِ فَدَنَوْتُ مِنْهُ فَقُلْتُ سَمِعْتَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ هَذَا قَالَ نَعَمْ وَذَکَرَ الْحَدِيثَ
It was narrated that ‘Abdur Rahman bin ‘Abd Rabb Al-Ka’bah said: “I came to ‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr bin Al-’As while he was sitting in the shade of Ka and the people were gathered around him, and I heard him say: ‘While we were with the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم on a journey, we stopped to camp, and some of us were pitching tents, some were competing in shooting arrows, and some were taking the animals out to race them. Then the caller of the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم called out: As-Salatu Jami’ah (prayer is about to begin). So we gathered, and the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم stood up and addressed us. He said: There has never been a Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم before me who was not obliged to tell his nation of what he knew was good for them, and to warn against what he knew was bad for them. With regard to this Ummah of yours, soundness (of religious commitment) has been placed in its earlier generations, and the last of them will be afflicted with calamities and things that you dislike. Then there will come tribulations which will make the earlier ones pale into insignificance, and the believer will say: This will be the end of me, then relief will come. Then (more) tribulations will come and the believer will say: This will be the end of me, then relief will come. Whoever would like to be taken far away from the Fire and admitted to Paradise, let him die believing in Allah and the Last Day, and let him treat people as he would like to be treated. Whoever pledges to a ruler and gives him the grasp of his hand and the sincerity of his heart, then let him obey him as much as he can, and if another comes and challenges him, let them strike the neck of (i.e., kill) the second one.” He said: “I drew near to him and said: ‘Did you hear the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم say that?’ He said: ‘Yes,’ and quoted the Hadith without interruption (in the chain).” (Sahih)
