حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ رَاهَوَيْهِ ثنا أَبِي ثنا جَرِيرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ ح وَحَدَّثَنَا زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ يَحْيَى السَّاجيُّ ثنا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ زُنْبُورٍ ثنا فُضَيْلُ بْنُ عِيَاضٍ كِلَاهُمَا عَنْ لَيْثِ بْنِ أَبِي سُلَيْمٍ عَنْ أَبِي الْيَقْظَانِ عَنْ زَاذَانَ عَنْ عَابِسٍ الْغِفَارِيِّ قَالَ
كُنَّا مَعَهُ فَوْقَ أَجَارٍ لَهُ فَمَرَّ قَوْمٌ يَتَحَمَّلُونَ فَقَالَ مَا هَؤُلَاءِ؟ قِيلَ يَفِرُّونَ مِنَ الطَّاعُونِ فَقَالَ يَا طَاعُونُ خُذْنِي يَا طَاعُونُ خُذْنِي يَا طَاعُونُ خُذْنِي فَقَالَ لَهُ ابْنُ أَخٍ لَهُ وَكَانَتْ لَهُ صُحْبَةٌ تَمَنَّى الْمَوْتَ وَقَدْ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «لَا يَتَمَنَّى أَحَدُكُمُ الْمَوْتَ فَإِنَّ الْمَوْتَ آخِرُ عَمَلِ الْمُؤْمِنِ لَا يَرْجِعُ فَيُسْتَعْتَبُ؟» فَقَالَ يَا ابْنَ أَخِي إِنِّي أُبَادِرُ خِلَالًا سَمِعْتُهُنَّ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ تَكُنَّ فِي آخِرِ الزَّمَانِ يَتَخَوَّفْهُنَّ عَلَى أُمَّتِهِ «إِمَارَةُ السُّفَهَاءِ وَكَثْرَةُ الشُّرَطِ واسْتِخْفَافٌ بِالدَّمِ وَقَطِيعَةُ الرَّحِمِ وَنَشْوٌ يَنْشَأُ يَتَّخِذُونَ الْقُرْآنَ مَزَامِيرَ يُقَدِّمُونَ الرَّجُلَ لَيْسَ بِأَفْقَهِهِمْ فِي الدِّينِ وَلَا بِأَعْلَمِهِمْ وَفِيهِمْ مَنْ هُوَ أَفْقَهُ مِنْهُمْ وَأَعْلَمُ يُقَدِّمُونَهُمْ لِيُغَنِّيَهُمْ غِنَاءً»

✧ We were with him on a rooftop of his, and some people passed by loading up. He asked, 'Who are these?' It was said, 'They are fleeing from the plague.' He said, 'O plague, take me! O plague, take me! O plague, take me!' A nephew of his, who was a companion, said to him, 'You wish for death, although I heard the Messenger of God ﷺ say: Let none of you wish for death, for death is the last deed of a believer; he does not return to be asked to repent.' He replied, 'O nephew, I am hastening toward certain traits that I heard from the Messenger of God ﷺ, which will occur in the last days and which he feared for his ummah: the rule of fools, the proliferation of police, the cheapening of blood, the severing of family ties, and a generation that takes the Qur'an as musical instruments, putting forward a man who is not the most knowledgeable among them in religion nor the most learned, even though among them are those more knowledgeable and more learned than him, so that he may sing to them.'
