✧ The Messenger of God ﷺ narrated two hadiths to us. I have seen one of them and I am waiting for the other. He narrated to us: "Trustworthiness descended in the roots of men's hearts, and they learned from the Qur'an and learned from the Sunnah." Then he narrated to us about its removal. He said: "A man among you sleeps a sleep, and a black dot is made in his heart, and its trace remains in his interior like a blister, like an ember you rolled on your foot and it blistered. You see it raised, with nothing in it. People wake up with no trustworthy one among them. Indeed a time passed over me when I did not care which of you I did business with: if he was a Muslim, his Islam would return it to me; if he was a Jew or a Christian, his official would return it to me. But now I have reached the point that I do not do business with any of you except so-and-so and so-and-so.

✧ "I was sitting with Hudhayfah b. al-Yaman and Abu Mas'ud al-Badri when the people of Kufah went out to Sa'id b. al-'As and turned him back, and that was the day of al-Jar'ah. He said: I heard Abu Mas'ud say: 'I did not think that it would return without blood being shed in it.' Hudhayfah said: 'But I, by God, I knew that it would return on its heels without a cupping glass of blood being shed in it. I knew nothing of that except a thing I learned while Muhammad ﷺ was alive: a man wakes up a believer and by evening there is nothing of his religion with him, and by evening a believer and wakes up with nothing of his religion with him. He fights in the faction of the people—or he said: in the fitnah of the day; Abu Dawud was uncertain—God will kill him tomorrow; his heart is turned upside down and his buttocks rise above him.' He said: I said: 'His lower part?' He said: 'His buttocks.'"

Abu Tha`labah sat down, and Hudhayfah said: The Messenger of God ﷺ said: You are in prophethood as long as God wills it to be, then He will remove it when He wills to remove it. Then there will be a caliphate upon the pattern of prophethood, and it will remain as long as God wills it to remain, then He will remove it when He wills to remove it. Then there will be a biting monarchy, and it will remain as long as God wills it to remain, then He will remove it when He wills to remove it. Then there will be tyranny, and it will remain as long as God wills it to remain, then He will remove it when He wills to remove it. Then there will be a caliphate upon the pattern of prophethood.

I said: Does the sword have any remainder? What comes after it? He said: There will be a truce upon corruption. He said: I said: What comes after the truce? He said: Callers of misguidance. If you see then a caliph of God, Mighty and Majestic, on earth, then cling to him, even if he strikes your back and takes your wealth. And if you do not see a caliph, then flee until death overtakes you while you are biting onto the stump of a tree. I said: O Messenger of God, what comes after that? He said: The Dajjal.
