قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ الْهَيْثَمُ بْنُ خَارِجَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي فَرْوَةَ عَنْ يُوسُفَ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ عَنْ جَدَّتِهِ مَيْمُونَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ سَنَّةَ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ
بَدَأَ الْإِسْلَامُ غَرِيبًا، ثُمَّ يَعُودُ غَرِيبًا كَمَا بَدَأَ، فَطُوبَى لِلْغُرَبَاءِ، قِيلَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، وَمَنِ الْغُرَبَاءُ ؟ قَالَ: الَّذِينَ يُصْلِحُونَ إِذَا فَسَدَ النَّاسُ، وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَيَنْحَازَنَّ الْإِيمَانُ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ كَمَا يَحُوزُ السَّيْلُ، وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَيَأْرِزَنَّ الْإِسْلَامُ إِلَى مَا بَيْنَ الْمَسْجِدَيْنِ كَمَا تَأْرِزُ الْحَيَّةُ إِلَى جُحْرِهَا

✧ Islam began as something strange, and it will return to being strange as it began, so blessed are the strangers. It was said: 'O Messenger of God, who are the strangers?' He said: 'Those who set things right when the people have become corrupt. By the One in whose hand is my soul, faith will surely withdraw to Madinah as a torrent gathers, and by the One in whose hand is my soul, Islam will surely contract to between the two mosques as a snake contracts to its hole.'
