حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذٌ قَالَ: نَا مُسَدَّدٌ قَالَ: ثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ جُحَادَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ ثَرْوَانَ، عَنْ هُذَيْلِ بْنِ شُرَحْبِيلَ، عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيِّ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
إِنَّ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ السَّاعَةِ فِتَنًا كَقِطَعِ اللَّيْلِ الْمُظْلِمِ، يُصْبِحُ الرَّجُلُ فِيهَا مُؤْمِنًا وَيُمْسِي كَافِرًا، وَيُمْسِي مُؤْمِنًا وَيُصْبِحُ كَافِرًا، الْقَاعِدُ فِيهَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ الْقَائِمِ، وَالْقَائِمُ فِيهَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ الْمَاشِي، وَالْمَاشِي فِيهَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ السَّاعِي، فَكَسِّرُوا قِسِيَّكُمْ، وَقَطِّعُوا أَوْتَارَكُمْ، وَاضْرِبُوا سُيُوفَكُمْ بِالْحِجَارَةِ، فَإِنْ دُخِلَ عَلَى أَحَدِكُمْ بَيْتَهُ فَلْيَكُنْ كَخَيْرِ ابْنَيْ آدَمَ

✧ Indeed, before the Hour there will be tribulations like patches of dark night, during which a man will be a believer in the morning and a disbeliever in the evening, or a believer in the evening and a disbeliever in the morning. The one sitting during them is better than the one standing, the one standing is better than the one walking, and the one walking is better than the one running. So break your bows, cut your bowstrings, and strike your swords with stones. If one of you is entered upon in his house, let him be like the better of the two sons of Adam.
