وَقَالَ الْحَارِثُ: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الْوَرْكَانِيُّ، ثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ، عَنْ أَبَانَ بْنِ أَبِي عَيَّاشٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو الْجَلْدِ، عَنْ مَعْقِلِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ الْمُزَنِيِّ ؓ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ، يَقُولُ:
لَا تَذْهَبُ اللَّيَالِي وَالْأَيَّامُ حَتَّى يَخْلَقَ الْقُرْآنُ فِي صُدُورِ أَقْوَامٍ مِنْ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ كَمَا تَخْلَقُ الثِّيَابُ، وَيَكُونَ غَيْرُهُ أَعْجَبَ إِلَيْهِمْ، وَيَكُونَ أَمْرُهُمْ طَمَعًا كُلُّهُ، لَا يُخَالِطُهُ خَوْفٌ، إِنْ قَصَّرَ عَنْ حَقِّ اللهِ تَعَالَى مَنَّتْهُ نَفْسُهُ الْأَمَانِيَّ، وَإِنْ تَجَاوَزَ إِلَى نَهْيِ اللهِ تَعَالَى، قَالَ: أَرْجُو أَنْ يَتَجَاوَزَ اللهُ عَنِّي، يَلْبَسُونَ جُلُودَ الضَّأْنِ عَلَى قُلُوبِ الذِّئَابِ، أَفْضَلُهُمْ فِي أَنْفُسِهِمُ الْمُدَاهِنُ. قِيلَ: وَمَا الْمُدَاهِنُ ؟ قَالَ: الَّذِي لَا يَأْمُرُ وَلَا يَنْهَى

✧ Night and day will not pass until the Quran wears out in the chests of people from this ummah just as clothes wear out, and other than it becomes more pleasing to them. Their affair becomes all greed, unmixed with fear. If one falls short of the right of Allah the Exalted, his soul gives him false hopes; and if he transgresses into what Allah the Exalted forbade, he says: I hope Allah will overlook me. They wear skins of lambs over hearts of wolves. The best of them in their own eyes is the flatterer. It was said: What is the flatterer? He said: The one who neither enjoins good nor forbids evil.
