أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْمُثَنَّى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ عَنْ أَبِي أَسْمَاءَ عَنْ ثَوْبَانَ أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ
«إِنَّ اللَّهَ زَوَى لِي الْأَرْضَ حَتَّى رَأَيْتُ مَشَارِقَهَا وَمَغَارِبَهَا وَأَعْطَانِي الْكَنْزَيْنِ الْأَحْمَرَ وَالْأَبْيَضَ وَإِنَّ مُلْكَ أُمَّتِي سَيَبْلُغُ مَا زُوِيَ لِي مِنْهَا وَإِنِّي سَأَلْتُ رَبِّي لِأُمَّتِي أَنْ لَا يُهْلِكَهُمْ بِسَنَةٍ عَامَّةٍ وَأَنْ لَا يُسَلِّطَ عَلَيْهِمْ عَدُوًّا مِنْ غَيْرِهِمْ فَيُهْلِكَهُمْ وَلَا يُلْبِسَهُمْ شِيَعًا وَيُذِيقَ بَعْضَهُمْ بَأْسَ بَعْضٍ فَقَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ إِنِّي إِذَا أَعْطَيْتُ عَطَاءً فَلَا مَرَدَّ لَهُ إِنِّي أَعْطَيْتُكَ لِأُمَّتِكَ أَنْ لَا يُهْلَكُوا بِسَنَةٍ عَامَّةٍ وَأَنْ لَا أُسَلِّطَ عَلَيْهِمْ عَدُوًّا مِنْ غَيْرِهِمْ فَيَسْتَبِيحَهُمْ وَلَكِنْ أُلْبِسُهُمْ شِيَعًا وَلَوِ اجْتُمِعَ عَلَيْهِمْ مِنْ بَيْنَ أَقْطَارِهَا حَتَّى يَكُونَ بَعْضُهُمْ يَهْلِكُ بَعْضًا وَبَعْضُهُمْ يُفْنِي بَعْضًا وَبَعْضُهُمْ يَسْبِي بَعْضًا وَإِنَّهُ سَيَرْجِعُ قَبَائِلُ مِنْ أُمَّتِي إِلَى التُّرْكِ وَعِبَادَةِ الْأَوْثَانِ وَإِنَّ مِنْ أَخْوَفِ مَا أَخَافُ عَلَى أُمَّتِي الْأَئِمَّةَ الْمُضِلِّينَ وَإِنَّهُمْ إِذَا وُضِعَ السَّيْفُ فِيهِمْ لَمْ يُرْفَعْ عَنْهُمْ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ وَإِنَّهُ سَيَخْرُجُ مِنْ أُمَّتِي كَذَّابُونَ دَجَّالُونَ قَرِيبًا مِنْ ثَلَاثِينَ وَإِنِّي خَاتَمُ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ لَا نَبِيَّ بَعْدِي وَلَا تَزَالُ طَائِفَةٌ مِنْ أُمَّتِي عَلَى الْحَقِّ مَنْصُورَةٌ حَتَّى يَأْتِيَ أَمْرُ اللَّهِ»

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying: Allah, the Exalted, folded for me the earth, or he said (the narrator is doubtful): My Lord folded for me the earth, so much so that I saw its easts and wests (i.e. the extremities). The kingdom of my community will reach as far as the earth was floded for me. The two treasures, the red and the white, were bestowed on me. I prayed to my Lord that He may not destroy my community by prevailing famine, and not give their control to an enemy who annihilates then en masse except from among themselves. My Lord said to me: Muhammad, If I make a decision, it is not withdrawn ; and I shall not destroy them by prevailing famine, and I shall not give their control to an enemy, except from among themselves, who exterminates them en masse, even if they are stormed from all sides of the earth ; only a section of them will destroy another section, and a section will captive another section. I am afraid about my community of those leaders who will lead astray. When the sword is used among my people, it will not be withdrawn from them till the Day of Resurrection, and the Last Hour will not come before the tribes of my people attach themselves to the polytheists and tribes of my people worship idols. There will be among my people thirty great liars each of them asserting that he is (Allah's) prophet, where as I am the seal of the Prophet s after whom (me) there will be no prophet ; and a section of my people will continue to hold to the truth - (according to the Ibn Isa's version: (will continue to dominate) - the agreed version goes: "and will not be injured by those who oppose them, till Allah's command comes." (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4252)
