حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ عَبِيدَةَ السَّلْمَانِيِّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ، قَالَ:
سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: أَيُّ النَّاسِ خَيْرٌ ؟ قَالَ: قَرْنِي، ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ، ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ، ثُمَّ يَجِيءُ قَوْمٌ تَبْدُرُ شَهَادَةُ أَحَدِهِمْ يَمِينَهُ، وَيَبْدُرُ يَمِينُهُ شَهَادَتَهُ، قَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ: كَانُوا يَنْهَوْنَنَا وَنَحْنُ صِبْيَانٌ عَنِ الْعَهْدِ وَالشَّهَادَاتِ

✧ The Messenger of God ﷺ was asked, 'Which people are best?' He said, 'My generation, then those who follow them, then those who follow them. Then will come a people whose testimony hastens ahead of their oath and whose oath hastens ahead of their testimony.' Ibrahim said: They used to forbid us, while we were boys, from making covenants and bearing testimonies.
