وعنه عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال: " بين النفختين أربعون" قالوا: يا أبا هريرة أربعون يوماً؟ قال: أبيت، قالوا: أربعون سنة؟ قال: أبيت، قالوا: أربعون شهراً؟ قال: أبيت" ويبلى كل شئ من الإنسان إلا عجب ذنبه، فيه يركب الخلق، ثم ينزل الله من السماء ماء، فينبتون كما ينبت البقل" ((متفق عليه)).
Narrated Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) said:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Between the two Blowing of the Trumpet there will be an interval of forty." The people said, "O Abu Hurairah! Do you mean forty days?" He said, "I cannot say anything." They said, "Do you mean forty years?" He said, "I cannot say anything." They said, "Do you mean forty months?" He said, "I cannot say anything. The Prophet added: 'Everything of the human body will perish except the last coccyx bone (end part of the spinal cord), and from that bone Allah will reconstruct the whole body. Then Allah will send down water from the sky and people will grow like green vegetables'.".
وعنه قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ، :
"ثلاثة لا يكلمهم الله يوم القيامة ولا ينظر إليهم ولا يزكيهم ولهم عذاب أليم: رجل على فضل ماء بالفلاة يمنعه من ابن السبيل، ورجل بايع رجلاً، سلعة، بعد العصر، فحلف بالله لأخذها بكذا وكذا، فصدقه وهو على غير ذلك، ورجل بايع إماماً لا يبايعه إلا لدنيا، فإن أعطاه منها وفى ، وإن لم يعطه منها لم يف" ((متفق عليه)).
Narrated Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) said:
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "There are three (types of) people with whom Allah will neither speak on the Day of Resurrection nor purify them (from sins) and there will be a painful chastisement for them: A person who has spare water in a desert and he refuses to give it to the traveller; a person who sells a commodity to another person after the afternoon prayer and swears by Allah that he has bought it at such and such price, and the buyer pays him accordingly though in reality it was not true; and a person who pledges allegiance to an Imam (leader) just for some worldly benefit, and then if the Imam bestows on him (something out of that) he fulfills his allegiance, and if does not give him, he does not fulfill it.".
وعنه قال: بينما النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم في مجلس يحدث القوم، جاءه أعرابي فقال: متى الساعة؟ فمضى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ، يحدث، فقال بعض القوم: سمع ما قال: فكره ما قال، وقال بعضهم: بل لم يسمع، حتى إذا قضى حديثه قال: "أين السائل عن الساعة؟ "قال: ها أنا يا رسول الله . قال: "إذا ضيعت الأمانة ، فانتظر الساعة" قال: كيف إضاعتها؟ قالك "إذا وسد الأمر إلى غير أهله فانتظر الساعة" ((رواه البخاري)).
Narrated Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:
Once the Prophet (ﷺ) was speaking to us when, a bedouin came and asked him: "When will the Last Day be?" The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) continued his talk. Some of those present thought that he had heard him but disliked the interruption and the other said that he had not hear him. When the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) concluded his speech he asked, "Where is the one who inquired about the Last Day?" The man replied: "Here I am." The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) replied, "When the practice of honouring a trust is lost, expect the Last Day." He asked: "How could it be lost?" He replied, "When the government is entrusted to the undeserving people, then wait for the Last Day.".
