حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي سَالِمُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ وَأَبُو بَکْرِ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ قَالَ صَلَّی بِنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ صَلَاةَ الْعِشَائِ فِي آخِرِ حَيَاتِهِ فَلَمَّا سَلَّمَ قَامَ فَقَالَ أَرَأَيْتُکُمْ لَيْلَتَکُمْ هَذِهِ فَإِنَّ عَلَی رَأْسِ مِائَةِ سَنَةٍ مِنْهَا لَا يَبْقَی مِمَّنْ هُوَ عَلَی ظَهْرِ الْأَرْضِ أَحَدٌ قَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ فَوَهِلَ النَّاسُ فِي مَقَالَةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ تِلْکَ فِيمَا يَتَحَدَّثُونَ عَنْ هَذِهِ الْأَحَادِيثِ عَنْ مِائَةِ سَنَةٍ وَإِنَّمَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَا يَبْقَی مِمَّنْ هُوَ الْيَوْمَ عَلَی ظَهْرِ الْأَرْضِ يُرِيدُ بِأَنْ يَنْخَرِمَ ذَلِکَ الْقَرْنُ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 4348
Abdullah bin Umar said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ led us in the night prayer one night towards the end of his life. When he uttered the salutation, he got up and said: Have you seen this night of yours ? No one of those who are on the surface of the earth will survive at the ends of one hundred years. Ibn Umar said: The people fell into fallacy by this statement of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about the traditions they used to narrate concerning one hundred years. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: No one of those who are present today on the surface of the earth will survive, meaning when that century comes to and end.
