حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ أُسَامَةَ أَخْبَرَنِي مِسْعَرٌ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ مَيْسَرَةَ عَنْ هِلَالِ بْنِ يِسَافٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ ظَالِمٍ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ قَالَ ذَكَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِتَنًا كَقِطَعِ اللَّيْلِ الْمُظْلِمِ أُرَاهُ قَالَ قَدْ يَذْهَبُ فِيهَا النَّاسُ أَسْرَعَ ذَهَابٍ قَالَ فَقِيلَ أَكُلُّهُمْ هَالِكٌ أَمْ بَعْضُهُمْ قَالَ حَسْبُهُمْ أَوْ بِحَسْبِهِمْ الْقَتْلُ
مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 1647
It was narrated that Sa'eed bin Zaid said: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) mentioned (i.e., warned against) turmoils (fitnahs ) like pieces of dark night. I think he said: "People may rush to become involved in them very quickly." It was said: Are all of them (those who get involved in them) doomed or some of them? He said: "The killing will be enough (reason) for them (all to be doomed)."
