حَدَّثَنَا مُؤَمَّلٌ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ الْأَسْوَدُ، قَالَ مُؤَمَّلٌ: وَكَانَ رَجُلًا صَالِحًا، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبَا الصِّدِّيقِ، يُحَدِّثُ ثَابِتًا الْبُنَانِيَّ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ، عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: "إِنَّكُمْ فِي زَمَانٍ عُلَمَاؤُهُ كَثِيرٌ، خُطَبَاؤُهُ قَلِيلٌ، مَنْ تَرَكَ فِيهِ عُشَيْرَ مَا يَعْلَمُ هَوَى، أَوْ قَالَ: هَلَكَ، وَسَيَأْتِي عَلَى النَّاسِ زَمَانٌ يَقِلُّ عُلَمَاؤُهُ وَيَكْثُرُ خُطَبَاؤُهُ، مَنْ تَمَسَّكَ فِيهِ بِعُشَيْرِ مَا يَعْلَمُ نَجَا " (١)، ،

It is narrated from Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said: "You are in a time in which scholars are many and preachers are few. Whoever abandons even a tenth of his knowledge in this time will be destroyed. Soon there will come a time upon the people in which scholars will be few and preachers will be many. In that time, whoever acts upon even a tenth of his knowledge will attain salvation."
