حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا لَيْثٌ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ عَنْ عَطَائِ بْنِ مِينَائَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَاللَّهِ لَيَنْزِلَنَّ ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ حَکَمًا عَادِلًا فَلَيَکْسِرَنَّ الصَّلِيبَ وَلَيَقْتُلَنَّ الْخِنْزِيرَ وَلَيَضَعَنَّ الْجِزْيَةَ وَلَتُتْرَکَنَّ الْقِلَاصُ فَلَا يُسْعَی عَلَيْهَا وَلَتَذْهَبَنَّ الشَّحْنَائُ وَالتَّبَاغُضُ وَالتَّحَاسُدُ وَلَيَدْعُوَنَّ إِلَی الْمَالِ فَلَا يَقْبَلُهُ أَحَدٌ
صحیح مسلم · Hadith 391
The same hadith is transmitted from Zuhri with the same chain of transmission. But in the tradition narrated by Ibn 'Uyaina the words are: impartial leader and just judge and in the tradition narrated by Yunus: the judge judging with justice and impartial leader are not mentioned. And in the hadith narrated by Salih like the one transmitted by Laith the words are: impartial judge . And in the hadith transmitted by Ziyad the words are: Till one sajda is better than the worldand what it contains. Then Abu Huraira used to say, recite if you like: Not one of the People of the Book will fail to believe in him before his death.
