حَدِيثُ رَجُلٍ، ٢٠٥٢٨ - حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ، حَدَّثَنَا عَوْفٌ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْمُزَنِيِّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي رَجُلٌ، قَالَ: كُنْتُ فِي مَجْلِسٍ فِيهِ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ بِالْمَدِينَةِ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ لِرَجُلٍ مِنْ جُلَسَائِهِ: كَيْفَ سَمِعْتَ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ؟ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: " إِنَّ الْإِسْلَامَ بَدَأَ جَذَعًا، ثُمَّ ثَنِيًّا، ثُمَّ رَبَاعِيًا، ثُمَّ سَدِيسًا، (١) ثُمَّ بَازِلًا "، قَالَ: فَقَالَ عُمَرُ: " فَمَا بَعْدَ الْبُزُولِ إِلَّا النُّقْصَانُ " (٢)، ،
Translation
English translation
A man says that I was sitting in a gathering in Madinah in which Umar Farooq was also present. He said to one of the people, "How did you hear the Prophet (peace be upon him) describe the condition of Islam?" He replied, "I heard the Prophet (peace be upon him) say that the beginning of Islam was like a six-month-old goat, which has two teeth, then it had four teeth, then six teeth, then it had canine teeth." Upon this, Umar said, "After the canine teeth, the return towards decline begins."
