أَخْبَرَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ إِسْحَقَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ عَبْدِ الْوَهَّابِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مِسْعَرٌ عَنْ أَبِي حَصِينٍ عَنْ الشَّعْبِيِّ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ الْعَدَوِيِّ عَنْ کَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ قَالَ خَرَجَ إِلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَنَحْنُ تِسْعَةٌ خَمْسَةٌ وَأَرْبَعَةٌ أَحَدُ الْعَدَدَيْنِ مِنْ الْعَرَبِ وَالْآخَرُ مِنْ الْعَجَمِ فَقَالَ اسْمَعُوا هَلْ سَمِعْتُمْ أَنَّهُ سَتَکُونُ بَعْدِي أُمَرَائُ مَنْ دَخَلَ عَلَيْهِمْ فَصَدَّقَهُمْ بِکَذِبِهِمْ وَأَعَانَهُمْ عَلَی ظُلْمِهِمْ فَلَيْسَ مِنِّي وَلَسْتُ مِنْهُ وَلَيْسَ يَرِدُ عَلَيَّ الْحَوْضَ وَمَنْ لَمْ يَدْخُلْ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَمْ يُصَدِّقْهُمْ بِکَذِبِهِمْ وَلَمْ يُعِنْهُمْ عَلَی ظُلْمِهِمْ فَهُوَ مِنِّي وَأَنَا مِنْهُ وَسَيَرِدُ عَلَيَّ الْحَوْضَ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 4223
It was narrated that Ka’b bin ‘Ujrah said: “The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم came out to us and we were nine, five and four, some ‘Arabs and some non-’Arabs. He said: ‘Listen. Have you heard that after me there will be rulers, whoever enters upon them and believes their lies and helps them in their wrongdoing is not of me, and I am not of him, and he will not come to me at the Cistern? Whoever does not enter upon them or believe their lies or help them in their wrongdoing is of me and I am of him, and he will come to me at the Cistern.” (Sahih)
