حَدَّثَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ مَعْرُوفٍ أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو صَخْرٍ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْد الرَّحْمَنِ عَبْد اللَّهِ بْن أَحْمَد وَسَمِعْتُهُ أَنَا مَنْ هَارُونَ أَنَّ أَبَا حَازِمٍ حَدَّثَهُ عَنِ ابْنٍ لِسَعْدِ بْنِ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبِي يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ إِنَّ الْإِيمَانَ بَدَأَ غَرِيبًا وَسَيَعُودُ كَمَا بَدَأَ فَطُوبَى يَوْمَئِذٍ لِلْغُرَبَاءِ إِذَا فَسَدَ النَّاسُ وَالَّذِي نَفْسُ أَبِي الْقَاسِمِ بِيَدِهِ لَيَأْرِزَنَّ الْإِيمَانُ بَيْنَ هَذَيْنِ الْمَسْجِدَيْنِ كَمَا تَأْرِزُ الْحَيَّةُ فِي جُحْرِهَا

مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 1604

It was narrated that a son of Saad bin Abi Waqqas said: I heard my father say: I heard the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) say: "Faith began as something strange and will go back to being as it began, so glad tidings to the strangers when the people become corrupt. By the One Whose hand is the soul of Abul-Qasim, faith will retreat between these two mosques as a snake retreats into its hole."
