حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَعْشَرٍ الْمَدَنِيُّ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ:

لَتَأْخُذُنَّ كَمَا أَخَذَتِ الْأُمَمُ قَبْلَكُمْ، ذِرَاعًا بِذِرَاعٍ، وَشِبْرًا بِشِبْرٍ، وَبَاعًا بِبَاعٍ، حَتَّى لَوْ أَنَّ أَحَدَ أُولَئِكَ دَخَلَ جُحْرَ ضَبٍّ لَدَخَلْتُمُوهُ، قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ: اقْرَءُوا إِنْ شِئْتُمُ الْقُرْآنَ: كَالَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِكُمْ كَانُوا أَشَدَّ مِنْكُمْ قُوَّةً إِلَى آخِرِ الْآيَةِ، قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، كَمَا فَعَلَتْ فَارِسُ وَالرُّومُ ؟ قَالَ: فَمَا النَّاسُ إِلَّا هُمْ

✧ You will certainly follow the ways of those nations who were before you, span by span, cubit by cubit, and fathom by fathom, until even if one of them entered a lizard's hole you would enter it. Abu Hurayra said: Recite, if you wish, the Qur'an: 'Like those before you; they were stronger than you in power' to the end of the verse. They said, 'O Messenger of Allah, as Persia and Byzantium did?' He said, 'Who are the people except them?'
