وَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ عَوْنٍ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ عَنْ جَابِرٍ ؓ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:

لَيَأْتِيَنَّ عَلَى النَّاسِ زَمَانٌ يَخْرُجُ الْجَيْشُ فَيُقَالُ: هَلْ فِيكُمْ أَحَدٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ ؟ فَيَطْلُبُونَهُ فَلَا يَجِدُونَهُ، ثُمَّ يَخْرُجُ الْجَيْشُ فَيُقَالُ: هَلْ فِيكُمْ مَنْ رَأَى أَحَدًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ ؟ فَيَطْلُبُونَهُ فَلَا يَجِدُونَهُ، فَلَوْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِي وَرَاءَ الْبَحْرِ لَأَتَوْهُ
