حَدِيثُ الضَّحَّاكِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ (١)، ١٥٧٥٣ - حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، أَنَّ الضَّحَّاكَ بْنَ قَيْسٍ، كَتَبَ إِلَى قَيْسِ بْنِ الْهَيْثَمِ حِينَ مَاتَ يَزِيدُ بْنُ مُعَاوِيَةَ: سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكَ أَمَّا بَعْدُ، فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: " إِنَّ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ السَّاعَةِ، فِتَنًا كَقِطَعِ اللَّيْلِ الْمُظْلِمِ، فِتَنًا كَقِطَعِ الدُّخَانِ يَمُوتُ، فِيهَا قَلْبُ الرَّجُلِ كَمَا يَمُوتُ بَدَنُهُ يُصْبِحُ الرَّجُلُ مُؤْمِنًا، وَيُمْسِي كَافِرًا، وَيُمْسِي مُؤْمِنًا، وَيُصْبِحُ كَافِرًا، يَبِيعُ أَقْوَامٌ خَلَاقَهُمْ وَدِينَهُمْ بِعَرَضٍ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا "، وَإِنَّ يَزِيدَ بْنَ مُعَاوِيَةَ قَدْ مَاتَ، وَأَنْتُمْ إِخْوَانُنَا، وَأَشِقَّاؤُنَا فَلَا تَسْبِقُونَا حَتَّى نَخْتَارَ لِأَنْفُسِنَا (٢)، ، . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .، ،
Translation
English translation
Hasan Basri says that when Yazid passed away, Dahhak bin Qais wrote in a letter to Qais bin Haitham: Peace be upon you. To proceed, I heard the Prophet (peace be upon him) say that before the Day of Judgment, tribulations will come like pieces of a dark night. Some tribulations will be like pieces of smoke. In these tribulations, a person's heart will die just like his body dies. A person will be a believer in the morning and a disbeliever in the evening, and likewise, a believer in the evening and a disbeliever in the morning. People will sell their morals and religion for a small portion of worldly goods. And Yazid bin Muawiyah has passed away. You are our brothers and our kin, so do not hasten to select a ruler before us until we ourselves choose someone for ourselves.
