حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ عَنْ شُعْبَةَ حَدَّثَنِي بِشْرُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ عَنْ شُعْبَةَ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا وَائِلٍ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ
أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ قَالَ أَيُّكُمْ يَحْفَظُ قَوْلَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي الْفِتْنَةِ فَقَالَ حُذَيْفَةُ أَنَا أَحْفَظُ كَمَا قَالَ قَالَ هَاتِ إِنَّكَ لَجَرِيءٌ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِتْنَةُ الرَّجُلِ فِي أَهْلِهِ وَمَالِهِ وَجَارِهِ تُكَفِّرُهَا الصَّلاَةُ وَالصَّدَقَةُ وَالأَمْرُ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَالنَّهْىُ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ قَالَ لَيْسَتْ هَذِهِ وَلَكِنِ الَّتِي تَمُوجُ كَمَوْجِ الْبَحْرِ قَالَ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ لاَ بَأْسَ عَلَيْكَ مِنْهَا إِنَّ بَيْنَكَ وَبَيْنَهَا بَابًا مُغْلَقًا قَالَ يُفْتَحُ الْبَابُ أَوْ يُكْسَرُ قَالَ لاَ بَلْ يُكْسَرُ قَالَ ذَاكَ أَحْرَى أَنْ لاَ يُغْلَقَ قُلْنَا عَلِمَ الْبَابَ قَالَ نَعَمْ كَمَا أَنَّ دُونَ غَدٍ اللَّيْلَةَ إِنِّي حَدَّثْتُهُ حَدِيثًا لَيْسَ بِالأَغَالِيطِ فَهِبْنَا أَنْ نَسْأَلَهُ وَأَمَرْنَا مَسْرُوقًا فَسَأَلَهُ فَقَالَ مَنِ الْبَابُ قَالَ عُمَرُ

Once ʿUmar bin Al-Khattab said, said, "Who amongst you remembers the statement of Allah's Apostle regarding the afflictions?" Hudhaifa replied, "I remember what he said exactly." ʿUmar said. "Tell (us), you are really a daring man!'' Hudhaifa said, "Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'A man's afflictions (i.e. wrong deeds) concerning his relation to his family, his property and his neighbors are expiated by his prayers, giving in charity and enjoining what is good and forbidding what is evil.' " ʿUmar said, "I don't mean these afflictions but the afflictions that will be heaving up and down like waves of the sea." Hudhaifa replied, "O chief of the believers! You need not fear those (afflictions) as there is a closed door between you and them." ʿUmar asked, "Will that door be opened or broken?" Hudhaifa replied, "No, it will be broken." ʿUmar said, "Then it is very likely that the door will not be closed again." Later on the people asked Hudhaifa, "Did ʿUmar know what that door meant?" He said. "Yes, ʿUmar knew it as everyone knows that there will be night before the tomorrow morning. I narrated to ʿUmar an authentic narration, not lies." We dared not ask Hudhaifa; therefore we requested Masruq who asked him, "What does the door stand for?" He said, "ʿUmar."
