حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ، قَالَ: نَا أَبُو هَمَّامٍ الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ شُجَاعٍ قَالَ: نَا أَبُو الْمُحَيَّاةِ قَالَ: نَا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ عُمَيْرٍ قَالَ: قَالَ أَبُو مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيُّ:
أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ، إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: إِنَّهُ سَيَأْتِي عَلَى النَّاسِ فِتْنَةٌ بَاقِرَةٌ، تَدَعُ الْحَلِيمَ حَيْرَانًا، النَّائِمُ فِيهَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ الْقَاعِدِ، وَالْقَاعِدُ فِيهَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ الْقَائِمِ، وَالْقَائِمُ فِيهَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ الْمَاشِي، وَالْمَاشِي فِيهَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ السَّاعِي. فَقَطِّعُوا أَوْتَارَكُمْ، وَكَسِّرُوا السُّيُوفَ بِالْحِجَارَةِ

✧ O people, I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: 'A devastating tribulation will come upon the people, leaving the forbearing bewildered. The one sleeping during it is better than the one sitting, the one sitting is better than the one standing, the one standing is better than the one walking, and the one walking is better than the one hastening.' So cut your bowstrings and smash your swords against stones.
