حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ ثَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ ثَنَا فِطْرُ بْنُ خَلِيفَةَ عَنْ حَبِيبِ بْنِ أَبِي ثَابِتٍ عَنْ أَبِي نَصْرٍ عَنْ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ غَزْوَانَ السُّلَمِيِّ وَكَانَ عُمَرُ بَعَثَهُ أَمِيرًا عَلَى الْبَصْرَةِ وَكَانَ بَدْرِيًّا فَقَامَ فَخَطَبَ فَقَالَ
«إِنَّ الدُّنْيَا قَدْ آذَنَتْ بِصَرْمٍ وَلَمْ يَبْقَ مِنْهَا إلَا صُبَابَةٌ كَصُبَابَةِ الْإِنَاءِ يَصُبُّهَا صَاحِبُهَا وَإِنَّ مِنْ وَرَائِكُمْ دَارًا فَانْتَقِلُوا إِلَيْهَا بِخَيْرِ مَا بِحَضْرَتِكُمْ وَاللهِ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُنِي سَابِعَ سَبْعَةٍ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِِ ﷺ وَقَدْ تَسَلَّقَتْ أَفْوَاهُنَا مِنْ أَكْلِ الشَّجَرِ مَا مِنَّا رَجُلٌ الْيَوْمَ إِلَّا وَهُوَ أَمِيرٌ عَلَى مِصْرٍ مِنَ الْأَمْصَارِ وَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُنِي وَسَعْدَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ ابْتَدَرْنَا بُرْدَةً فَأَخَذْتُ نِصْفَهَا وَأَخَذَ سَعْدٌ نِصْفَهَا وَلَقَدْ بَلَغَنِي أَنَّ مَا بَيْنَ مِصْرَاعَيْنِ مِنْ مَصَارِيعِ الْجَنَّةِ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً وَلَيَأْتِيَنَّ عَلَيْهِ يَوْمٌ وَهُوَ كَظِيظٌ وَإِنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ نُبُوَّةٌ إلَّا نُسِخَتْ حَتَّى يَكُونَ مُلْكًا وَإِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِاللهِ أَنْ أَكُونَ فِي نَفْسِي عَظِيمًا وَفِي نَفْسِ النَّاسِ صَغِيرًا وسَتُجَرِّبونَ الْأُمَرَاءَ بَعْدِي»

✧ “Indeed this world has announced its departure and turned away, and nothing of it remains except a remnant like the dregs of a vessel that its owner pours out. And behind you is an abode, so move to it with the best of what is present with you. By Allah, I have surely seen myself as the seventh of seven with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, when our mouths had become sore from eating leaves. There is not a man among us today except he is a commander over one of the garrison towns. I have seen myself and Saʿd b. Mālik racing to a cloak: I took half of it and Saʿd took half of it. It has reached me that between two panels of the panels of Paradise is a distance of forty years, and there will surely come a day when it is crowded. No prophethood ever occurred except that it was abrogated until it became kingship. I seek refuge in Allah from being great in my own estimation and small in people’s eyes. You will soon test the rulers after me.”
