حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ عَنْ يُونُسَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِأَنَّ النُّعْمَانَ بْنَ بَشِيرٍ كَتَبَ إِلَى قَيْسِ بْنِ الْهَيْثَمِ إِنَّكُمْ إِخْوَانُنَا وَأَشِقَّاؤُنَا وَإِنَّا شَهِدْنَا وَلَمْ تَشْهَدُوا
أَنَّ النُّعْمَانَ بْنَ بَشِيرٍ كَتَبَ إِلَى قَيْسِ بْنِ الْهَيْثَمِ: إِنَّكُمْ إِخْوَانُنَا وَأَشِقَّاؤُنَا، وَإِنَّا شَهِدْنَا وَلَمْ تَشْهَدُوا، وَسَمِعْنَا وَلَمْ تَسْمَعُوا، وَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يَقُولُ: إِنَّ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ السَّاعَةِ فِتَنًا كَأَنَّهَا قِطَعُ اللَّيْلِ الْمُظْلِمِ، يُصْبِحُ الرَّجُلُ فِيهَا مُؤْمِنًا وَيُمْسِي كَافِرًا، وَيَبِيعُ فِيهَا أَقْوَامٌ خَلَاقَهُمْ بِعَرَضٍ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا

✧ Al-Nuʿmān b. Bashīr wrote to Qays b. al-Haytham: "You are our brothers and our kin. We witnessed what you did not witness, and we heard what you did not hear. The Messenger of God ﷺ used to say: 'Before the Hour there will be tribulations like patches of dark night, in which a man will be a believer in the morning and an unbeliever in the evening, and in which people will sell their faith for a paltry gain of this world.'"
