حَدِيثُ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ غَزْوَانَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ٢٠٦٠٩ - حَدَّثَنِا وَكِيعٌ، حَدَّثَنَا قُرَّةُ، عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ هِلَالٍ الْعَدَوِيِّ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْهُمْ يُقَالُ لَهُ: خَالِدُ بْنُ عُمَيْرٍ، فَقَالَ أَبُو نَعَامَةَ: سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ، قَالَ خَطَبَنَا عُتْبَةُ بْنُ غَزْوَانَ، قَالَ أَبُو نَعَامَةَ: عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ، وَلَمْ يَقُلْهُ قُرَّةُ، فَقَالَ: " أَلَا إِنَّ الدُّنْيَا قَدْ آذَنَتْ بِصَرْمٍ، وَوَلَّتْ حَذَّاءَ، وَلَمْ يَبْقَ مِنْهَا إِلَّا صُبَابَةٌ كَصُبَابَةِ الْإِنَاءِ، وَأَنْتُمْ فِي دَارٍ مُنْتَقِلُونَ عَنْهَا، فَانْتَقِلُوا بِخَيْرِ مَا بِحَضْرَتِكُمْ، فَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُنِي سَابِعَ سَبْعَةٍ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، مَا لَنَا طَعَامٌ نَأْكُلُهُ إِلَّا وَرَقُ الشَّجَرِ، حَتَّى قَرِحَتْ أَشْدَاقُنَا ". (١)، ، قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ (١) : سَمِعْتُ أَبِي يَقُولُ: " مَا حَدَّثَ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ غَيْرُ وَكِيعٍ، يَعْنِي أَنَّهُ غَرِيبٌ ".،

Translation

English translation

Once, Utbah, while delivering a sermon, began by praising Allah and, after saying "Amma ba'd," said: "The world is announcing that it is coming to an end and it is turning its back and departing, and its remaining duration is only as much as the moisture left in a vessel by the one who drinks from it. And you are about to move to a house which will never perish, so move to that house with the best of deeds. And I have seen the time when I was the seventh person among those who accepted Islam with the Prophet (peace be upon him). At that time, we had nothing to eat except the leaves of trees, because of which our jaws became sore." Once, Utbah, while delivering a sermon, began by praising Allah... Then the narrator mentioned the entire hadith and at the end said: "And I have seen the time when I was the seventh person among those who accepted Islam with the Prophet (peace be upon him). At that time, we had nothing to eat except the leaves of trees, because of which our jaws became sore."
