It is narrated from Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I prayed with the Noble Prophet (ﷺ). The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) would say "Subhana Rabbiyal Azeem" in his bowing (ruku) and "Subhana Rabbiyal A'la" in his prostration (sajda). Whenever he passed by a verse of mercy, he would pause and supplicate, and whenever he passed by a verse of punishment, he would pause and seek refuge from it.

Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) came to know that Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) used to urinate in a bottle and used to say that if urine touched the body of the Children of Israel, they would cut off that part with scissors. Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "I wish your companions would not be so strict. I remember that we were walking with the Holy Prophet (ﷺ). While walking, we reached a place where rubbish was thrown, and the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) stood and urinated just as any one of you does. I started to go back, but the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) said, 'Stay close.' So I moved close to the blessed back of the Holy Prophet (ﷺ)."

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ، عَنْ خُثَيْمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي، ، حُذَيْفَةَ، قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ: اسْمُهُ سَلَمَةُ بْنُ الْهَيْثَمِ بْنِ صُهَيْبٍ (١) مِنْ أَصْحَابِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ قَالَ: كُنَّا إِذَا حَضَرْنَا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى طَعَامٍ لَمْ نَضَعْ أَيْدِيَنَا حَتَّى يَبْدَأَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَيَضَعَ يَدَهُ، وَإِنَّا حَضَرْنَا مَعَهُ طَعَامًا فَجَاءَتْ جَارِيَةٌ كَأَنَّمَا تُدْفَعُ، فَذَهَبَتْ تَضَعُ يَدَهَا فِي الطَّعَامِ، فَأَخَذَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِيَدِهَا، وَجَاءَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ كَأَنَّمَا يُدْفَعُ، فَذَهَبَ يَضَعُ يَدَهُ فِي الطَّعَامِ، فَأَخَذَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِيَدِهِ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " إِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ يَسْتَحِلُّ الطَّعَامَ إِذَا لَمْ يُذْكَرْ اسْمُ اللهِ عَلَيْهِ، وَإِنَّهُ جَاءَ بِهَذِهِ الْجَارِيَةِ لِيَسْتَحِلَّ بِهَا فَأَخَذْتُ بِيَدِهَا، وَجَاءَ بِهَذَا الْأَعْرَابِيِّ لِيَسْتَحِلَّ بِهِ فَأَخَذْتُ بِيَدِهِ، وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ، إِنَّ يَدَهُ فِي يَدِي مَعَ يَدِهِمَا " (٢) ، يَعْنِي: الشَّيْطَانَ، ،
It is narrated from Hudhaifah (may Allah be pleased with him) that when we used to participate in a meal with the Noble Prophet (ﷺ), we would not put our hands into the food until the Prophet (ﷺ) began first. Once, in the same manner, we were participating in a meal with the Prophet (ﷺ). Meanwhile, a slave girl came, and it seemed as if someone was pushing her; she was about to put her hand into the food when the Prophet (ﷺ) caught her hand. Then a Bedouin came, and it seemed as if someone was pushing him; he was about to put his hand into the food when the Prophet (ﷺ) caught his hand as well. The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "When the name of Allah is not mentioned over the food, Satan considers it lawful for himself. So, first, he came with this slave girl so that he could make the food lawful for himself, but I caught her hand. Then he came with this Bedouin so that through him he could make the food lawful for himself, but I caught his hand as well. By the One in Whose hand is my soul, Satan's hand is with their hands in my hand."

It is narrated (marfu'an) from Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) that this Ummah has been given superiority over other nations in three things: for this Ummah, the entire earth has been made a place of prostration and a means of purification; its rows (in prayer) have been made like the rows of angels; this is what the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) used to say. And this Ummah has been given the last verses of Surah Al-Baqarah from a treasure beneath the Divine Throne, which were not given to any prophet before me.

It is narrated from Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) said: Among the people before you there was a man who used to commit sinful deeds. When his death approached, he said to his family: When I die, burn me in fire, then crush my ashes, then on a day when a strong wind is blowing, scatter my ashes in the air. When he died, his family did as he had instructed. Allah gathered him in His power and asked him: What made you do this? He said: Your fear. Allah said: I have forgiven you.

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ وَهْبٍ، عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَدِيثَيْنِ قَدْ رَأَيْتُ أَحَدَهُمَا، وَأَنَا أَنْتَظِرُ الْآخَرَ، حَدَّثَنَا: " أَنَّ الْأَمَانَةَ نَزَلَتْ فِي جَذْرِ قُلُوبِ الرِّجَالِ، ثُمَّ نَزَلَ الْقُرْآنُ، فَعَلِمُوا مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ، وَعَلِمُوا مِنَ السُّنَّةِ "، ثُمَّ حَدَّثَنَا عَنْ رَفْعِ الْأَمَانَةِ فَقَالَ: " يَنَامُ الرَّجُلُ النَّوْمَةَ فَتُقْبَضُ الْأَمَانَةُ مِنْ قَلْبِهِ فَيَظَلُّ أَثَرُهَا مِثْلَ أَثَرِ الْوَكْتِ، ثُمَّ يَنَامُ نَوْمَةً (١) فَتُقْبَضُ الْأَمَانَةُ مِنْ قَلْبِهِ، فَيَظَلُّ أَثَرُهَا مِثْلَ أَثَرِ الْمَجْلِ كَجَمْرٍ دَحْرَجْتَهُ عَلَى رِجْلِكَ تَرَاهُ مُنْتَبِرًا وَلَيْسَ فِيهِ شَيْءٌ "، قَالَ: ثُمَّ أَخَذَ حَصًى فَدَحْرَجَهُ عَلَى رِجْلِهِ، قَالَ: " فَيُصْبِحُ النَّاسُ يَتَبَايَعُونَ لَا يَكَادُ أَحَدٌ يُؤَدِّي الْأَمَانَةَ، حَتَّى يُقَالَ: إِنَّ فِي بَنِي فُلَانٍ رَجُلًا أَمِينًا، حَتَّى يُقَالَ لِلرَّجُلِ: مَا أَجْلَدَهُ وَأَظْرَفَهُ وَأَعْقَلَهُ وَمَا فِي قَلْبِهِ حَبَّةٌ مِنْ خَرْدَلٍ مِنْ إِيمَانٍ،، ، وَلَقَدْ أَتَى عَلَيَّ زَمَانٌ، وَمَا أُبَالِي أَيَّكُمْ بَايَعْتُ، لَئِنْ كَانَ مُسْلِمًا لَيَرُدَّنَّهُ عَلَيَّ دِينُهُ، وَلَئِنْ كَانَ نَصْرَانِيًّا أَوْ يَهُودِيًّا لَيَرُدَّنَّهُ عَلَيَّ سَاعِيهِ، فَأَمَّا الْيَوْمَ فَمَا كُنْتُ لِأُبَايِعَ مِنْكُمْ إِلَّا فُلَانًا، وَفُلَانًا " (١) ،، ،
It is narrated from Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) related to us two hadiths, of which I have seen one and am awaiting the other. The Noble Prophet (ﷺ), mentioning the removal of trustworthiness, said: A man will sleep, and trustworthiness will be taken out from his heart, and only a trace the size of a dot will remain in his heart. Then, when he sleeps again, the remainder of trustworthiness will also be taken out from his heart, and it will be left like a blister on a person's foot; you will throw a burning coal on it, and it will appear swollen to you, but there will be nothing inside it. Then Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) took some pebbles and rolled them over his foot to demonstrate. After that, people will engage in buying and selling with one another, but there will not be anyone who fulfills trust, to the extent that it will be said: There is a trustworthy man among the sons of so-and-so. Likewise, it will be said: How strong and wise he is, even though there will not be faith in his heart equal to a mustard seed. And a time passed over me when I did not care with whom I did business, for if he was a Muslim, he would return it to me on account of his religion, and if he was a Christian or a Jew, he would return it to me on account of his governor. But now, I only do business with such-and-such person.

He was not performing the bowing (ruku) and prostration (sajdah) properly. When he finished the prayer, Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) asked him, "Since when have you been praying like this?" He replied, "For forty years." Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "You have not prayed a single prayer in forty years, and if you were to depart from this world with this prayer, you would not die upon the nature (fitrah) which was granted to the Noble Prophet (ﷺ)." Then he began to teach him the prayer and said, "A person should pray lightly, but should complete the bowing and prostration."

Accordingly, when we were tested, each one of us could only pray secretly.

And whoever does not confirm their lies nor helps them in their oppression, then he is from me and I am from him, and he will come to me at the Pond of Kawthar.

It is narrated from Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I prayed with the Noble Prophet (ﷺ). The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) began Surah Al-Baqarah. When he reached one hundred verses, I thought that the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) would now bow (ruku‘), but the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) continued reciting until he reached two hundred verses. I thought that perhaps now he would bow, but the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) continued reciting until he completed it. Then the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) began Surah An-Nisa’ and, after reciting it, performed ruku‘. In his ruku‘, the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) kept saying "Subhana Rabbiyal ‘Azim" and in his prostration "Subhana Rabbiyal A‘la". Whenever he passed by a verse of mercy, he would pause and supplicate, and whenever he passed by a verse of punishment, he would pause and seek refuge from it.

It is narrated from Hudhaifah (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) prayed for someone, the effects of that supplication would reach him, his children, and even his grandchildren.

حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، حَدَّثَنَا رَزِينُ بْنُ حَبِيبٍ الْجُهَنِيُّ، عَنْ أَبِي الرُّقَادِ الْعَبْسِيِّ، عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ قَالَ: " إِنْ كَانَ الرَّجُلُ لَيَتَكَلَّمُ بِالْكَلِمَةِ عَلَى عَهْدِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَيَصِيرُ بِهَا مُنَافِقًا، وَإِنِّي لَأَسْمَعُهَا مِنْ أَحَدِكُمُ الْيَوْمَ فِي الْمَجْلِسِ عَشْرَ مَرَّاتٍ " (١)،
It is narrated from Hudhaifah (may Allah be pleased with him) that in the blessed era of the Holy Prophet (ﷺ), sometimes a person would utter a sentence and because of it would become a hypocrite, and now in a single gathering I hear dozens of such words daily.

حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو مَالِكٍ الْأَشْجَعِيُّ سَعْدُ بْنُ طَارِقٍ، حَدَّثَنَا رِبْعِيُّ بْنُ حِرَاشٍ،، ، عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ بْنِ الْيَمَانِ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " لَأَنَا أَعْلَمُ بِمَا مَعَ الدَّجَّالِ مِنَ الدِّجَّالِ، مَعَهُ نَهْرَانِ يَجْرِيَانِ: أَحَدُهُمَا رَأْيَ الْعَيْنِ مَاءٌ أَبْيَضُ، وَالْآخَرُ رَأْيَ الْعَيْنِ نَارٌ تَأَجَّجُ، فَإِنْ أَدْرَكَنَّ وَاحِدًا (١) مِنْكُمْ فَلْيَأْتِ النَّهَرَ الَّذِي يَرَاهُ نَارًا فَلْيُغْمِضْ ثُمَّ لِيُطَأْطِئْ رَأْسَهُ، فَلْيَشْرَبْ فَإِنَّهُ مَاءٌ بَارِدٌ، وَإِنَّ الدَّجَّالَ مَمْسُوحُ الْعَيْنِ الْيُسْرَى، عَلَيْهَا ظَفَرَةٌ غَلِيظَةٌ، مَكْتُوبٌ بَيْنَ عَيْنَيْهِ كَافِرٌ، يَقْرَؤُهُ كُلُّ مُؤْمِنٍ كَاتِبٌ وَغَيْرُ كَاتِبٍ " (٢)، ،
It is narrated from Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said: I know more about what will happen with the Dajjal than even he does. He will have with him two flowing rivers, one of which will appear to be white water and the other will appear to be blazing fire. If any of you encounters that time, he should enter the river which appears to him as fire, and immerse himself in it, then lower his head and drink its water, for it will be cool water. And the Dajjal’s left eye will be wiped out, over it will be a thick piece of skin, and between his two eyes will be written "Kafir" (disbeliever), which every literate and illiterate Muslim will be able to read.

حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَالِكٍ، عَنْ رِبْعِيِّ بْنِ حِرَاشٍ، عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ، أَنَّهُ قَدِمَ مِنْ عِنْدِ عُمَرَ قَالَ: لَمَّا جَلَسْنَا إِلَيْهِ أَمْسِ سَأَلَ أَصْحَابَ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَيُّكُمْ سَمِعَ قَوْلَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الْفِتَنِ؟ فَقَالُوا: نَحْنُ سَمِعْنَاهُ، قَالَ: لَعَلَّكُمْ تَعْنُونَ فِتْنَةَ الرَّجُلِ فِي أَهْلِهِ وَمَالِهِ؟ قَالُوا: أَجَلْ، قَالَ: لَسْتُ عَنْ تِلْكَ أَسْأَلُ، تِلْكَ يُكَفِّرُهَا الصَّلَاةُ، وَالصِّيَامُ، وَالصَّدَقَةُ، وَلَكِنْ أَيُّكُمْ سَمِعَ قَوْلَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الْفِتَنِ الَّتِي تَمُوجُ مَوْجَ الْبَحْرِ؟ قَالَ: فَأَسْكَتَ (١) الْقَوْمُ، وَظَنَنْتُ أَنَّهُ إِيَّايَ يُرِيدُ، قُلْتُ: أَنَا، قَالَ لِي: أَنْتَ لِلَّهِ أَبُوكَ قَالَ: قُلْتُ: " تُعْرَضُ الْفِتَنُ عَلَى الْقُلُوبِ عَرْضَ الْحَصِيرِ، فَأَيُّ قَلْبٍ أَنْكَرَهَا نُكِتَتْ فِيهِ نُكْتَةٌ بَيْضَاءُ، وَأَيُّ قَلْبٍ أُشْرِبَهَا نُكِتَتْ فِيهِ نُكْتَةٌ سَوْدَاءُ، حَتَّى يَصِيرَ الْقَلْبُ عَلَى قَلْبَيْنِ أَبْيَضَ مِثْلِ الصَّفَا، لَا تَضُرُّهُ فِتْنَةٌ مَا دَامَتِ السَّمَاوَاتُ وَالْأَرْضُ، وَالْآخَرِ أَسْوَدَ مُرْبَدٍّ كَالْكُوزِ مُجَخِّيًا ـ وَأَمَالَ كَفَّهُ ـ لَا يَعْرِفُ مَعْرُوفًا، وَلَا يُنْكِرُ مُنْكَرًا، إِلَّا مَا أُشْرِبَ مِنْ هَوَاهُ " (٢)، ،
It is narrated from Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) that once he came from Umar (may Allah be pleased with him). He says: Yesterday, when we were sitting with him, he asked the noble companions (may Allah be pleased with them), "Who among you has heard the saying of the Prophet (ﷺ) regarding tribulations (fitan)?" The companions (may Allah be pleased with them) said, "We have all heard it." Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "Perhaps you are thinking of the tribulation which concerns a man's family and wealth?" The companions (may Allah be pleased with them) replied, "Yes!" Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "I am not asking you about that. Its expiation is prayer, fasting, and charity. Has anyone among you heard the saying of the Prophet (ﷺ) regarding those tribulations which will spread like the waves of the sea?" At this, the people fell silent, and I realized that they wanted to get the answer from me. So I said, "I have heard that saying." Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said to me, "Surely, you must have heard it." I said, "Tribulations will be presented before the hearts just as a mat is woven, straw by straw. Any heart that absorbs them will have a black dot placed upon it, and any heart that rejects them will have a white dot placed upon it, until the hearts become of two kinds: one white like a pure stone, which no tribulation will harm as long as the heavens and the earth remain; and the other black and dark, like an overturned vessel, not recognizing good as good nor evil as evil, except what its desires incline towards."

It is narrated from Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) informed me about the events that will occur until the Day of Judgment, and there was nothing left regarding it that I did not ask the Noble Prophet (ﷺ), except that I did not ask what thing will expel the people of Madinah from Madinah.

Nasr bin Asim says that once I came to Yashkari with a group of Banu Laith. He asked, "Who are you people?" We replied, "We are from Banu Laith." We inquired about his well-being and he inquired about ours. Then we said, "We have come to you to learn the hadith of Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him)." He said, "Once we were returning with Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him). In Kufa, animals had become very expensive. I, along with one of my companions, sought permission from Abu Musa. He granted us permission, so we reached Kufa early in the morning. I said to my companion, 'I will be inside the mosque. When the market opens, I will come to you.' I entered the mosque and saw a circle (of people) gathered. It seemed as if their heads had been cut off; they were listening to a man's hadith with great attention. I went and stood near them. Meanwhile, another man came and stood by my side. I asked him, 'Who is this person?' He asked me, 'Are you from Basra?' I said, 'Yes!' He said, 'I already understood that if you were from Kufa, you would not have asked about this person. This is Hudhaifa bin Yaman (may Allah be pleased with him).' I went near him and heard him saying, 'People used to ask the Prophet (ﷺ) about good, and I used to ask about evil because I knew that good could not go ahead leaving me behind. One day I submitted in the court of the Messenger, "O Messenger of Allah! Will there be evil after this good?" The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Hudhaifa! Learn the Book of Allah and follow its commands." (He said this three times.) I repeated my question. The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "There will be tribulation and evil." I asked, "O Messenger of Allah! Will there be evil after this good?" The Prophet (ﷺ) said three times, "Hudhaifa! Learn the Book of Allah and follow its commands." I asked, "O Messenger of Allah! Will there be evil after this good?" The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "There will be reconciliation upon smoke and agreement upon filth." I submitted, "O Messenger of Allah! What is meant by reconciliation upon smoke?" The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "People will not be pleased with this reconciliation in their hearts." Then the same questions and answers took place between me and the Prophet (ﷺ), and the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "A tribulation will come that will make one blind and deaf. There will be people appointed who will call towards the doors of Hell. O Hudhaifa! If you die in such a state that you are holding the trunk of a tree with your teeth, it is better than following any one of them."

Rabi’ bin Hirash (may Allah have mercy on him) says that when the troublemakers set out towards Uthman Ghani (may Allah be pleased with him), I reached Hudhaifa bin Yaman (may Allah be pleased with him) in Mada’in. He asked me, “O Rabi’! What happened to your people?” I asked, “What do you want to know about them?” He said, “Who among them has set out towards Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him)?” I told him the names of some of them. He said, “I heard the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) say: Whoever leaves the congregation and humiliates his leader will meet Allah in such a state that he will have no status there.”

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النَّضْرِ، حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ، عَنْ عَاصِمٍ، عَنْ زِرِّ بْنِ حُبَيْشٍ قَالَ: أَتَيْتُ عَلَى حُذَيْفَةَ بْنِ الْيَمَانِ وَهُوَ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ لَيْلَةِ أُسْرِيَ بِمُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ: " فَانْطَلَقْتُ ـ أَوْ انْطَلَقْنَا (١) ـ حَتَّى أَتَيْنَا عَلَى بَيْتِ الْمَقْدِسِ "، فَلَمْ يَدْخُلَاهُ، قَالَ: قُلْتُ: بَلْ دَخَلَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَيْلَتَئِذٍ وَصَلَّى فِيهِ، قَالَ: مَا اسْمُكَ يَا أَصْلَعُ؟ فَإِنِّي أَعْرِفُ وَجْهَكَ، وَلَا أَدْرِي مَا اسْمُكَ قَالَ: قُلْتُ: أَنَا زِرُّ بْنُ حُبَيْشٍ، قَالَ: فَمَا عِلْمُكَ بِأَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَلَّى فِيهِ لَيْلَتَئِذٍ؟ قَالَ: قُلْتُ: الْقُرْآنُ يُخْبِرُنِي بِذَلِكَ، قَالَ: مَنْ تَكَلَّمَ بِالْقُرْآنِ فَلَجَ، اقْرَأْ، قَالَ: فَقَرَأْتُ: {سُبْحَانَ الَّذِي أَسْرَى بِعَبْدِهِ لَيْلًا مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ} [الإسراء: ١] ، قَالَ: فَلَمْ أَجِدْهُ صَلَّى فِيهِ، قَالَ: يَا أَصْلَعُ، هَلْ تَجِدُ صَلَّى فِيهِ؟ قَالَ: قُلْتُ: لَا، قَالَ: وَاللهِ مَا صَلَّى فِيهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَيْلَتَئِذٍ، لَوْ صَلَّى فِيهِ لَكُتِبَ عَلَيْكُمْ صَلَاةٌ فِيهِ، كَمَا كُتِبَ عَلَيْكُمْ صَلَاةٌ فِي الْبَيْتِ الْعَتِيقِ، وَاللهِ مَا زَايَلَا الْبُرَاقَ حَتَّى فُتِحَتْ لَهُمَا أَبْوَابُ السَّمَاءِ، فَرَأَيَا الْجَنَّةَ وَالنَّارَ، وَوَعْدَ الْآخِرَةِ أَجْمَعَ، ثُمَّ عَادَا عَوْدَهُمَا عَلَى بَدْئِهِمَا، قَالَ: ثُمَّ ضَحِكَ حَتَّى رَأَيْتُ نَوَاجِذَهُ، قَالَ: وَيُحَدِّثُونَ أَنَّهُ رَبَطَهُ (٢) أَلِيَفِرَّ مِنْهُ؟، وَإِنَّمَا سَخَّرَهُ لَهُ عَالِمُ، ، الْغَيْبِ وَالشَّهَادَةِ، قَالَ: قُلْتُ: أَبَا عَبْدِ اللهِ، أَيُّ دَابَّةٍ الْبُرَاقُ؟ قَالَ: دَابَّةٌ أَبْيَضُ طَوِيلٌ هَكَذَا خَطْوُهُ مَدُّ الْبَصَرِ (١)، ،
Zirr bin Hubaish says that once I was present in the company of Hudhaifa bin Yaman (may Allah be pleased with him). While narrating the incident of the Night of Ascension (Shab-e-Miraj), he began to mention this saying of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him): "Then we set out from there and reached Bayt al-Maqdis, but we did not enter Bayt al-Maqdis." I said, "On that night, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) did enter Bayt al-Maqdis and also offered prayer there." Upon hearing this, Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "O bald one! What is your name? I recognize you by your face but do not remember your name." I replied, "My name is Zirr bin Hubaish." He said, "How do you know that on that night the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) offered prayer in Bayt al-Maqdis?" I said, "The Qur'an tells us." He said, "The one who speaks from the Qur'an is successful. Recite that verse to me." So when I recited 'Subhanalladhi asra bi'abdihi' (Glory be to Him Who took His servant by night), I did not find anywhere in it that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) offered prayer in Bayt al-Maqdis that night. Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "O bald one! Do you find any mention of prayer in it?" I said, "No." He said, "By Allah! The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) did not offer prayer in Bayt al-Maqdis that night. If the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) had offered prayer in Bayt al-Maqdis, then it would have become obligatory for you to pray there as it happened with the Ka'bah. By Allah! Both of them (the Prophet and Buraq) did not separate until the gates of the heavens were opened for them. Then both of them saw Paradise and Hell and all the promises of the Hereafter. Then both of them returned in the same way as they had gone. Then he began to laugh until I saw his blessed teeth." Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) further said, "People say that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) tied Buraq so that it would not run away, whereas Allah Almighty had made the entire world of the unseen and the seen subservient to him." I asked, "O Abu Abdullah! What kind of animal was Buraq?" He replied, "It was a long white animal whose step reached as far as the eye could see."

It is narrated from Hudhaifah bin Yaman (may Allah be pleased with him) that, by Allah! I know more than all people about all the tribulations that will occur from now until the Day of Judgment. It was not that the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) told me something exclusively that he did not tell anyone else, but rather, I was present in the gathering in which the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) mentioned these matters. Questions were being asked to the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) regarding tribulations, and the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) was counting them. Among them, there are three tribulations that will leave nothing untouched; some of them will be like the winds of summer, some will be small, and some will be great. Hudhaifah (may Allah be pleased with him) says that, except for me, all the participants of that gathering have departed from this world.

Abu Tufail says that there was a minor dispute between Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) and a companion (may Allah be pleased with him) who participated in the Pledge of Aqabah, just as happens among people. He asked, "I ask you by Allah, how many people participated in the Pledge of Aqabah?" The people said to Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him), "Since he is asking you, please tell him." He replied, "We have been informed that they were fourteen men. If you are also included among them, then their number becomes fifteen. And I swear by Allah that among them, twelve men are warriors for Allah and His Messenger in this worldly life and on the Day when witnesses will rise. And he excused three people, who said that they had not heard the announcement of the Prophet's (ﷺ) caller and did not know what the people wanted." This is clarified in Abu Ahmad's hadith, that once, in the intense heat of summer, the Prophet (ﷺ) set out and told the people, "There is very little water, so no one should reach that place before me." But when the Prophet (ﷺ) arrived there, he saw that some people had already reached before him. The Prophet (ﷺ) cursed and reproached them.

He asked: What will it be like? The Holy Prophet (ﷺ) said: There will appear tribulations like the portions of a dark night, which will come one after another, and confusion will prevail over you just as the faces of cows resemble each other, and you will not be able to distinguish one from another.

It is narrated from Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) that once my mother asked me, "Since when have you been associated with the Noble Prophet (ﷺ)?" I told her an approximate time. She began to scold and reproach me harshly. I said to her, "Step aside, I am going to the Noble Prophet (ﷺ); I will perform the Maghrib prayer with him and will not leave him until he seeks forgiveness for both me and you." So I presented myself before the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) and performed the Maghrib prayer with him. After that, the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) led the 'Isha prayer and then returned. I followed behind him. On the way, a man met him, and the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) began to talk with him. When he left, I started walking behind the Noble Prophet (ﷺ). The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) heard my footsteps and asked, "Who is it?" I replied, "Hudhaifa." The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) asked, "What is the matter?" I narrated the whole incident. The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said, "May Allah forgive you and your mother." Then he said, "Did you ever see the person on earth whom I just met a little while ago?" I replied, "Why not?" The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said, "He was an angel who had never descended to earth before tonight. He sought permission from the Lord to come and greet me and to give the glad tidings that Hasan and Husain are the leaders of the youth of Paradise, and Fatimah is the leader of the women of Paradise."

Zirr bin Hubaish says that once I was present in the company of Hudhaifah bin Yaman (may Allah be pleased with him). While narrating the incident of the Night of Ascension (Mi'raj), he began to mention this saying of the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ): "Then we set out from there and reached Bayt al-Maqdis, but we did not enter Bayt al-Maqdis." I said, "On that night, the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) did enter Bayt al-Maqdis and also offered prayer there." Upon hearing this, Hudhaifah (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "O bald one! What is your name? I recognize you by your face but do not remember your name." I replied, "My name is Zirr bin Hubaish." He said, "How do you know that on that night the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) offered prayer in Bayt al-Maqdis?" I said, "The Qur'an tells us." He said, "The one who speaks according to the Qur'an is successful. Recite that verse to me." So when I recited 'Subhan alladhi asra bi'abdihi' (Glory be to Him Who took His servant by night), I did not find anywhere in it that the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) offered prayer in Bayt al-Maqdis that night. Hudhaifah (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "O bald one! Do you find any mention of prayer in it?" I said, "No." He said, "By Allah! The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) did not offer prayer in Bayt al-Maqdis that night. If the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) had offered prayer in Bayt al-Maqdis, then it would have become obligatory for you to pray there as it became obligatory in Baytullah. By Allah! They did not separate from Buraq until the gates of the heavens were opened for them. Then both of them saw Paradise and Hell and all the promises of the Hereafter. Then both of them returned in the same way as they had gone. Then he began to laugh until I saw his blessed teeth. Hudhaifah (may Allah be pleased with him) further said, "People say that the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) tied Buraq so that it would not run away, whereas Allah Almighty had made the entire world of the unseen and the seen subservient to him."

It is narrated from Muhammad bin Ka'b Qarzi (may Allah have mercy on him) that a young man from among the people of Kufa asked Hudhayfah bin Yaman (may Allah be pleased with him), "O Abu Abdullah! Did you have the honor of seeing and accompanying the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ)?" He replied, "Yes, nephew!" The questioner asked, "What would you people do?" He replied, "We would put ourselves in hardship." The questioner said, "By Allah! If we had found the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ), we would not have let him walk on the ground, but would have carried him on our necks." Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "Nephew! By Allah! We saw during the Battle of the Trench that the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) led us in the 'Isha prayer in the darkness of the night, then turned towards us and said, 'Who is the man who will go and find out the condition of the enemy?' The Prophet (ﷺ) promised that Allah would admit him to Paradise, but no one stood up. After some part of the night had passed, the Prophet (ﷺ) again led us in prayer, then turned towards us and made the same announcement, and this time said, 'He will be my companion in Paradise.' Still, due to the intensity of fear, hunger, and cold, no one stood up. When no one stood up, the Prophet (ﷺ) called me. At that time, I had no choice but to stand. The Prophet (ﷺ) said, 'Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him), go and see what the condition of the enemy is, and do not do anything new until you return to us.' So I went and entered the enemy's camp, where the winds and Allah's army were at work, and none of their pots, fires, or tents could remain in place. Seeing this, Abu Sufyan bin Harb stood up and said, 'O group of Quraysh, let every man see who is sitting with him (lest there be a spy).' At this, I grabbed the hand of the man sitting next to me and asked him, 'Who are you?' He replied, 'I am so-and-so, son of so-and-so.' Then Abu Sufyan said, 'O group of Quraysh, by Allah! It is no longer possible for you to remain here. The livestock are perishing, Banu Qurayza have broken their promise to us, and we are facing unpleasant circumstances from their side, and you can see for yourselves the situation caused by this wind: no pot can remain in place, no fire can stay lit, and the tents cannot remain standing. Therefore, my opinion is that you should return, and I myself am going back.' Saying this, he went to his horse, which was tied with a rope, mounted it, and spurred it on. It jumped three times, but when he released the rope, it stood still. If the Prophet (ﷺ) had not instructed me not to do anything new until I returned to him, I would have wanted to shoot my arrow and kill him. Then I returned to the Prophet (ﷺ), who at that time was standing in prayer in a cloak made from the hair of one of his noble wives. When he saw me, the Prophet (ﷺ) called me into his tent and covered me with a corner of his cloak. Then he bowed and prostrated while I remained in the tent. When he finished the prayer, I told the Prophet (ﷺ) everything, and when Banu Ghatafan learned what Quraysh had done, they too returned to their own area.

It is narrated from Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) remained in his house and did not come outside, and we began to think that now the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) would not come out. When the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) came out, he performed such a long prostration that we began to fear that perhaps the soul of the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) had departed. When he raised his head, he said: My Lord consulted me regarding my Ummah, asking what should I do with them? I submitted: O Lord! Whatever You wish, they are Your creation and Your servants. Then He consulted me again and gave me the glad tidings that among my Ummah, the first to enter Paradise will be seventy thousand people, and with every thousand, there will be seventy thousand more, who will have no reckoning. Then my Lord sent me this message: Pray, your prayer will be accepted; ask, you will be granted. I asked the messenger: Will my Lord grant me upon my request? The messenger replied: He has sent me to you with the intention of giving. Then my Lord granted me, and I do not boast over it; He forgave my past and future sins while I am alive and well. He accepted my request that my Ummah will not be destroyed by famine, nor will anyone overpower them. He also granted me the Pond of Kawthar, which is a river of Paradise and flows into my pond. He granted me honor, help, and awe, which runs ahead of my Ummah at a distance of one month's journey. He also granted me the honor that I will be the first Prophet to enter Paradise. For me and my Ummah, the spoils of war were made lawful, and many of the strict commands that were upon the people before us were made lawful for us, and no hardship was placed upon us.

He will have with him two flowing rivers, one of which will appear to be white water and the other will appear to be blazing fire. If any of you encounters that time, he should enter the river which appears to him as fire, and immerse himself in it, then lower his head and drink its water, for it will be cool water.

Shaqiq says that once we went to Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) and asked him to tell us of a person who was closest to the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) in manners and character, so that we could learn these ways from him and listen to his words. He replied that in manners and character, the one who was closest to the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) was Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him), to the extent that he would sit in his house hiding from me, even though the trusted companions of the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) knew that Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) was the closest to the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) among all of them.

Zirr bin Hubaish says that once I was present in the company of Hudhaifah bin Yaman (may Allah be pleased with him). While narrating the incident of the Night of Ascension (Mi'raj), he began to mention this saying of the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ): "Then we set out from there and reached Bayt al-Maqdis, but we did not enter Bayt al-Maqdis." I said, "On that night, the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) did enter Bayt al-Maqdis and also offered prayer there." Upon hearing this, Hudhaifah (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "O bald one! What is your name? I recognize you by face but do not remember your name." I replied, "My name is Zirr bin Hubaish." He said, "How do you know that on that night the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) offered prayer in Bayt al-Maqdis?" I said, "The Qur'an tells us." He said, "The one who speaks according to the Qur'an is successful. Recite that verse to me." So when I recited 'Subhanalladhi asra bi'abdihi...' I did not find anywhere in it that the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) offered prayer in Bayt al-Maqdis that night. Hudhaifah (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "O bald one! Do you find any mention of prayer in it?" I said, "No." He said, "By Allah! The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) did not offer prayer in Bayt al-Maqdis that night. If the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) had offered prayer in Bayt al-Maqdis that night, then it would have become obligatory for you to pray there as it happened with Baytullah. By Allah! Both of them did not part from Buraq until the gates of the heavens were opened for them. Then both of them saw Paradise and Hell and all the promises of the Hereafter. Then both of them returned in the same way as they had gone. Then he began to laugh until I saw his blessed teeth. Hudhaifah (may Allah be pleased with him) further said, "People say that the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) tied Buraq so that it would not run away, whereas Allah Almighty had made the entire world of the unseen and the seen subservient to him."

Abu Thawr says that Uthman Ghani (may Allah be pleased with him) sent Saeed bin Aas (may Allah be pleased with him) towards a smooth sandy area. The people of that area came out and sent Saeed (may Allah be pleased with him) back. He says that I was sitting with Abu Masood (may Allah be pleased with him) and Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) when Abu Masood (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "I do not think that this man will return in such a way that there will be no bloodshed." Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "But I know that when you return, not even as much blood as fills a cupping glass will have been shed. I knew this at the very time when the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) was still alive. However, a time will come when a person will be a believer in the morning and by evening he will have no faith left, or he will be a believer in the evening and by morning he will have nothing left. Today his group will fight, and tomorrow Allah Almighty will have him killed. His heart will be turned upside down, his buttocks will be raised." The narrator asked, "Is this word the lower part?" So he replied, "This word is indeed 'buttocks'."

He asked the people, “Who among you has performed the Salat al-Khawf (prayer of fear) with the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ)?” Hudhaifah (may Allah be pleased with him) replied, “I have, and it was like this: the people formed two rows behind the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ). One row stood facing the enemy, and one row stood behind the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) for prayer. The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) led them in one rak’ah, then these people walked backwards to the place of those who were standing facing the enemy, and those people came and stood behind the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) in their place. The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) then led them in the second rak’ah, and then the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) said the salam (ending the prayer). In this way, the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) completed two rak’ahs, and each group behind him performed one rak’ah.”

Rabi’ says that once Uqbah bin Amr said to Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him), “Why do you not narrate to us any hadith you heard from the Prophet (ﷺ)?” He replied, “I heard the Prophet (ﷺ) say: When the Dajjal appears, he will have with him water and fire. What people will see as fire will actually be cool water, and what they will see as water will actually be burning fire. Whoever among you encounters him should plunge into what appears to be fire, for it will be sweet and cool water.” Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) says, “I heard the Prophet (ﷺ) say: In earlier times, the Angel of Death came to a man to seize his soul and asked him, ‘Have you ever done any good deed?’ He replied, ‘I do not know.’ The angel said, ‘Think about it.’ He said, ‘I do not know of any good deed except that I used to trade with people and would give respite to the one in difficulty and overlook (his debt).’ Allah Almighty admitted him to Paradise.” And I heard the Prophet (ﷺ) say: “When the time of death approached a man, he said to his family, ‘When I die, burn me in fire, then crush my ashes, and on a windy day scatter my ashes in the air.’ When he died, his family did as he had asked. Allah gathered him in His power and asked, ‘What made you do this?’ He replied, ‘Your fear.’ Allah said, ‘I have forgiven you.’”

It is narrated from Hudhaifah bin Yaman (may Allah be pleased with him) that nothing prevented me from participating in the Battle of Badr. In fact, I set out with my father Husail, but on the way, the disbelievers of Quraysh captured us and said, "Are you going to Muhammad (peace be upon him)?" We said, "Our intention is only to go to Madinah Munawwarah." They took a promise and a strong oath from us that after reaching Madinah, we would not support him in battle. We reached the service of the Noble Prophet (peace be upon him) and informed him of the entire matter. The Noble Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "Both of you return; we will fulfill their promise and seek help from Allah against them."

Abdur Rahman bin Abi Laila says that once I went out towards a village with Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him). He asked for water, so a farmer brought water in a silver vessel. Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) struck the vessel on his face. We signaled to each other to remain silent, because if we had asked him, he would never have told us about it. So we remained silent. After a while, he himself said, "Do you know why I struck that vessel on his face?" We replied, "No." He said, "I had forbidden him before as well (but he did not refrain)." Then he told us that the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Do not drink from gold and silver vessels, and do not wear silk and brocade, for these things are for the disbelievers in this world and for you in the Hereafter."

Zirr bin Hubaish says that once I ate suhoor and set out towards the mosque. On the way, I passed by the house of Hudhaifa bin Yaman (may Allah be pleased with him), so I went there. He gave an order, so a goat was milked and the pot was boiled. Then he said, "Come close and start eating." I said, "I have already made the intention to fast." He said, "I also intend to fast." So we ate and drank, and when we reached the mosque, the prayer had already started. Then Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "Once the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) did the same with me." I asked, "After the true dawn?" He replied, "Yes! The morning had come, but the sun had not yet risen."

Then the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) sent Abu Ubaidah (may Allah be pleased with him) with them.

It is narrated from Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I prayed with the Noble Prophet (ﷺ). The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) began Surah Al-Baqarah. When he reached one hundred verses, I thought that the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) would now bow (ruku‘), but the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) continued reciting until he reached two hundred verses. I thought that perhaps now he would bow, but the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) continued reciting until he completed it. Then the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) began Surah An-Nisa’ and, after reciting it, performed ruku‘. In his ruku‘, the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) kept saying "Subhana Rabbiyal ‘Azim" and in his prostration "Subhana Rabbiyal A‘la". Whenever he passed by a verse of mercy, he would pause and supplicate, and whenever he passed by a verse of punishment, he would pause and seek refuge from it.

Abdur Rahman bin Abi Laila says that once I went out towards a village with Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him). He asked for water, so a farmer brought water in a silver vessel. Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) struck the vessel on his face. We signaled to each other to remain silent, because if we asked him, he would never have told us about it. So we remained silent. After a while, he himself said, "Do you know why I struck this vessel on his face?" We replied, "No." He said, "I had forbidden him before as well (but he did not refrain)." Then he told us that the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Do not drink anything in gold or silver vessels, and do not wear silk or brocade, because these things are for the disbelievers in this world and for you in the Hereafter."

I said, "The trials that befall a person regarding his family, wealth, children, and neighbors are expiated by prayer, zakat, enjoining good, and forbidding evil." Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "I am not asking about that. I am asking about the tribulation which will spread like the waves of the sea." I said, "O Commander of the Faithful! You do not need to worry about it. Between you and it, there is a closed door." Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) asked, "Will the door be broken or opened?" I said, "It will be broken." Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "Then it will never be closed again." We asked, "Did Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) know who the door was?" Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "Yes! Just as he knew that night comes after day. I narrated the hadith to him, not a riddle."

Sabi’ says that once the people sent me to buy an animal. We reached a gathering where many people were assembled around a man. My companion went towards the animals, while I went towards that man. Upon reaching there, I found out that he was Hudhaifah (may Allah be pleased with him). I went close to him and heard him saying: People used to ask the Prophet (ﷺ) about good, and I used to ask about evil, because I knew that good could not go ahead leaving me behind. One day I submitted in the presence of the Messenger (ﷺ): O Messenger of Allah! Will there be evil after this good? The Prophet (ﷺ) said: Hudhaifah! Learn the Book of Allah and follow its commands (he said this three times). I repeated my question. The Prophet (ﷺ) said: There will be tribulation and evil. I asked: O Messenger of Allah! Will there be evil after this good? The Prophet (ﷺ) said three times: Hudhaifah! Learn the Book of Allah and follow its commands. I asked: O Messenger of Allah! Will there be evil after this good? The Prophet (ﷺ) said: There will be a truce established upon smoke, and there will be unity upon filth. I submitted: O Messenger of Allah! What is meant by a truce established upon smoke? The Prophet (ﷺ) said: People will not be pleased with this truce in their hearts. Then the same questions and answers occurred between me and the Prophet (ﷺ), and the Prophet (ﷺ) said: There will come a tribulation that will make one blind and deaf. Upon it, there will be people appointed who will call towards the doors of Hell. O Hudhaifah! If you die in such a state that you are biting the trunk of a tree with your teeth, that is better than following any one of them. I asked: Then what will happen? He said: Then the Dajjal will emerge. I asked: What will be with him? He said: With him will be a river or water and fire. Whoever enters his river, his reward will be lost and his punishment will be certain, and whoever enters his fire, his reward will be certain and his sins will be forgiven. I asked: Then what will happen? He said: If your horse gives birth, you will not get the chance to ride its offspring before the Hour is established.

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ نَصْرِ بْنِ عَاصِمٍ اللَّيْثِيِّ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ الْيَشْكُرِيِّ قَالَ: خَرَجْتُ زَمَانَ فُتِحَتْ تُسْتَرُ حَتَّى قَدِمْتُ الْكُوفَةَ، فَدَخَلْتُ الْمَسْجِدَ فَإِذَا أَنَا بِحَلْقَةٍ فِيهَا رَجُلٌ صَدَعٌ مِنَ الرِّجَالِ، حَسَنُ الثَّغْرِ، يُعْرَفُ فِيهِ أَنَّهُ مِنْ رِجَالِ أَهْلِ الْحِجَازِ، قَالَ: فَقُلْتُ: مَنِ الرَّجُلُ؟ فَقَالَ الْقَوْمُ: أَوَ مَا تَعْرِفُهُ؟ فَقُلْتُ: لَا، فَقَالُوا: هَذَا حُذَيْفَةُ بْنُ الْيَمَانِ صَاحِبُ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: فَقَعَدْتُ وَحَدَّثَ الْقَوْمَ، فَقَالَ: إِنَّ النَّاسَ كَانُوا يَسْأَلُونَ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنِ الْخَيْرِ، وَكُنْتُ أَسْأَلُهُ عَنِ الشَّرِّ، فَأَنْكَرَ ذَلِكَ الْقَوْمُ عَلَيْهِ، فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: إِنِّي سَأُخْبِرُكُمْ بِمَا أَنْكَرْتُمْ مِنْ ذَلِكَ، جَاءَ الْإِسْلَامُ حِينَ جَاءَ، فَجَاءَ أَمْرٌ لَيْسَ كَأَمْرِ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ، وَكُنْتُ قَدْ أُعْطِيتُ فِي الْقُرْآنِ فَهْمًا، فَكَانَ رِجَالٌ يَجِيئُونَ فَيَسْأَلُونَ عَنِ الْخَيْرِ، فَكُنْتُ أَسْأَلُهُ عَنِ الشَّرِّ، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَيَكُونُ بَعْدَ هَذَا الْخَيْرِ شَرٌّ كَمَا كَانَ قَبْلَهُ شَرٌّ؟ فَقَالَ: " نَعَمْ "، قَالَ: قُلْتُ: فَمَا الْعِصْمَةُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ: " السَّيْفُ "، قَالَ: قُلْتُ: وَهَلْ بَعْدَ هَذَا السَّيْفِ بَقِيَّةٌ؟ قَالَ: " نَعَمْ، تَكُونَ إِمَارَةٌ عَلَى أَقْذَاءٍ وَهُدْنَةٌ عَلَى دَخَنٍ "، قَالَ: قُلْتُ: ثُمَّ مَاذَا؟ قَالَ: " ثُمَّ تَنْشَأُ دُعَاةُ الضَّلَالَةِ، فَإِنْ كَانَ لِلَّهِ يَوْمَئِذٍ فِي الْأَرْضِ خَلِيفَةٌ جَلَدَ ظَهْرَكَ، وَأَخَذَ مَالَكَ فَالْزَمْهُ، وَإِلَّا فَمُتْ وَأَنْتَ عَاضٌّ عَلَى جِذْلِ شَجَرَةٍ "، قَالَ: قُلْتُ: ثُمَّ مَاذَا؟ قَالَ: " يَخْرُجُ الدَّجَّالُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ مَعَهُ نَهَرٌ وَنَارٌ، مَنْ وَقَعَ فِي نَارِهِ وَجَبَ أَجْرُهُ وَحُطَّ وِزْرُهُ، وَمَنْ وَقَعَ فِي نَهَرِهِ وَجَبَ وِزْرُهُ وَحُطَّ أَجْرُهُ "، قَالَ: قُلْتُ: ثُمَّ، مَاذَا؟ قَالَ: " ثُمَّ يُنْتَجُ الْمُهْرُ، فَلَا يُرْكَبُ حَتَّى تَقُومَ السَّاعَةُ " (١) ، الصَّدْعُ مِنَ الرِّجَالِ (٢) : الضَّرْبُ (٣) ، وَقَوْلُهُ: فَمَا الْعِصْمَةُ مِنْهُ؟ قَالَ: السَّيْفُ، كَانَ قَتَادَةُ يَضَعُهُ عَلَى الرِّدَّةِ الَّتِي كَانَتْ فِي زَمَنِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، وَقَوْلُهُ: إِمَارَةٌ عَلَى أَقْذَاءٍ يَقُولُ: عَلَى قَذًى (٤) وَهُدْنَةٍ، يَقُولُ: صُلْحٌ، وَقَوْلُهُ: عَلَى دَخَنٍ، يَقُولُ: عَلَى ضَغَائِنَ، قِيلَ لِعَبْدِ الرَّزَّاقِ: مِمَّنِ التَّفْسِيرُ؟ قَالَ: مِنْ قَتَادَةَ زَعَمَ.،
Khalid bin Khalid Yashkari says that when Tustar was conquered, I left from there and reached Kufa. I entered the mosque and there was a gathering; it seemed as if their heads had been cut off, they were listening to a man's hadith with great attention. I went and stood near them. Meanwhile, another man came and stood by my side. I asked him, "Who is this person?" He asked me, "Are you from Basra?" I said, "Yes!" He said, "I already understood that if you were from Kufa, you would not have asked about this person. This is Hudhaifa bin Yaman (may Allah be pleased with him)." I went near him and heard him saying: "People used to ask the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) about good, and I used to ask about evil, because I knew that good could not go ahead leaving me behind. One day I submitted in the court of the Messenger, 'O Messenger of Allah! Will there be evil after this good?' The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, 'Hudhaifa! Learn the Book of Allah and follow its commands.' (He said this three times.) I repeated my question. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, 'There will be tribulation and evil.' I asked, 'O Messenger of Allah! Will there be evil after this good?' The Prophet (peace be upon him) said three times, 'Hudhaifa! Learn the Book of Allah and follow its commands.' I asked, 'O Messenger of Allah! Will there be evil after this good?' The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, 'There will be reconciliation upon smoke and agreement upon filth.' I submitted, 'O Messenger of Allah! What is meant by reconciliation upon smoke?' The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, 'People will not be pleased with this reconciliation in their hearts.' Then the same questions and answers occurred between me and the Prophet (peace be upon him), and the Prophet (peace be upon him) said, 'A tribulation will come that will make one blind and deaf. There will be people appointed who will call towards the doors of Hell. O Hudhaifa! If you die in such a state that you are biting the trunk of a tree with your teeth, that is better than following any of them.' I asked, 'Then what will happen?' He said, 'Then the Dajjal will emerge.' I asked, 'What will be with him?' He said, 'With him will be a river or water and fire. Whoever enters his river, his reward will be lost and his punishment will be certain, and whoever enters his fire, his reward will be certain and his sins will be forgiven.' I asked, 'Then what will happen?' He said, 'If your horse gives birth, you will not get the chance to ride its offspring before the Hour is established.'"

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، حَدَّثَنَا (٣) بَكَّارٌ، حَدَّثَنِي خَلَّادُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا الطُّفَيْلِ يُحَدِّثُ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ حُذَيْفَةَ بْنَ الْيَمَانِ يَقُولُ: " يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ أَلَا تَسْأَلُونِي؟ فَإِنَّ النَّاسَ كَانُوا يَسْأَلُونَ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنِ الْخَيْرِ، وَكُنْتُ أَسْأَلُهُ عَنِ الشَّرِّ، إِنَّ اللهَ بَعَثَ نَبِيَّهُ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَدَعَا النَّاسَ مِنَ الْكُفْرِ إِلَى الْإِيمَانِ، وَمِنَ الضَّلَالَةِ إِلَى الْهُدَى، فَاسْتَجَابَ لَهُ مَنْ اسْتَجَابَ، فَحَيِيَ مِنَ الْحَقِّ مَا كَانَ مَيْتًا، وَمَاتَ مِنَ الْبَاطِلِ مَا كَانَ حَيًّا، ثُمَّ ذَهَبَتِ النُّبُوَّةُ فَكَانَتِ الْخِلَافَةُ عَلَى مِنْهَاجِ النُّبُوَّةِ " (٤)، ،
It is narrated from Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) that one day he said, "O people! Why do you not ask me questions? People used to ask the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) about good, and I used to ask about evil. Indeed, Allah Almighty sent His Holy Prophet (ﷺ), and he invited people from disbelief to faith, called them from misguidance to guidance. Whoever was to accept his words, accepted this invitation, and by the blessing of truth, dead things became alive, and by the misfortune of falsehood, even living things became dead. Then the era of Prophethood ended, and the Caliphate upon the way of Prophethood was established."

Tha’labah bin Zahdam says that once we were in Tabaristan with Sa’id bin ‘As (may Allah be pleased with him). He asked the people, “Who among you has performed the Salat al-Khawf (prayer of fear) with the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ)?” Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) replied, “I have.” Then he ordered the people, so they put on their weapons. Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) then said, “If the enemy suddenly attacks you, it is permissible for you to fight.” Then he led one group in one rak’ah (unit of prayer). One row stood facing the enemy. Then these people (who prayed) retreated backwards to the place of those who were standing in front of the enemy, and those people came and stood behind the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ), and the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) led them in the second rak’ah. Then the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) concluded the prayer with salam.

It is narrated from Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) that the tribe of Mudar will not leave on earth any righteous servant of Allah without putting him into trial and destroying him, until Allah will impose upon them an army of His that will humiliate them, and not even the side of a mound will be able to save them. A man said to him, "Servant of Allah! You are saying this even though you yourself belong to the tribe of Mudar?" He replied, "I am only saying what the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) has said."

It is narrated from Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) that once my mother asked me, "Since when have you been associated with the Noble Prophet (ﷺ)?" I told her an estimate of the time. She began to scold and reproach me harshly. I said to her, "Step aside, I am going to the Noble Prophet (ﷺ); I will perform the Maghrib prayer with him and will not leave him until he seeks forgiveness for both you and me." So I presented myself before the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) and performed the Maghrib prayer with him. After that, the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) led the 'Isha prayer and then returned.

It is narrated from Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said: I know more about what will happen with the Dajjal than even he does. He will have with him two flowing rivers, one of which will appear to have white water and the other will appear to be blazing. If any of you encounters that time, he should enter the river which appears to him as fire, immerse himself in it, then lower his head and drink its water, for it will be cool water. And the Dajjal’s left eye will be wiped out, over it will be a thick piece of skin, and between his two eyes will be written "Kafir" (disbeliever), which every Muslim, whether literate or illiterate, will be able to read.

It is narrated from Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) that once he came from Umar (may Allah be pleased with him). He says: Yesterday, when we were sitting with him, he asked the noble companions (may Allah be pleased with them), "Who among you has heard the saying of the Prophet (ﷺ) regarding tribulations (fitan)?" The companions (may Allah be pleased with them) said, "We have all heard it." Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "Perhaps you are thinking of the tribulation which concerns a man's family and wealth?" The companions (may Allah be pleased with them) replied, "Yes!" Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "I am not asking you about that. Its expiation is prayer, fasting, and charity. Has anyone among you heard the saying of the Prophet (ﷺ) regarding those tribulations which will spread like the waves of the sea?" At this, the people fell silent, and I realized that they wanted to get the answer from me. So I said, "I have heard that saying." Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said to me, "Surely, you must have heard it." I said, "Tribulations will be presented before the hearts just as a mat is woven, straw by straw. Any heart that absorbs them will have a black dot placed upon it, and any heart that rejects them will have a white dot placed upon it, until the hearts become of two kinds: one white like a pure stone, which no tribulation will harm as long as the heavens and the earth remain; and the other black and dark, like an overturned vessel, not recognizing good as good nor evil as evil, except what its desires incline towards."

The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said, "There will be tribulation and evil." I asked, "O Messenger of Allah! Will there be evil after this good?" The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said three times, "Hudhaifa! Learn the Book of Allah and follow its commands." I asked, "O Messenger of Allah! Will there be evil after this good?"

Salim says that once we were with Sa'id bin al-'As in Tabaristan, and some companions of the Prophet (ﷺ) were also with him. They said, "Who among you remembers the method of performing the prayer of fear (Salat al-Khawf) with the Prophet (ﷺ)?" Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "I remember. Order your companions to stand in two groups, one of which should stand behind you and the other facing the enemy. Then you say the takbir and they all say the takbir as well. Then you bow (ruku') and they all bow. Then you rise and they all rise. Then you prostrate and the row closest to you should prostrate, while those facing the enemy should remain standing. When you raise your head from prostration, then they should also prostrate. Then the first row should move to the back and the back row should come forward and take their place. Then perform the second rak'ah as you did the first, and all should finish with salam. And tell your companions that if the enemy attacks during the prayer, then fighting and speaking become permissible for them."

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ عُمَرَ مَوْلَى غُفْرَةَ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ، عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " إِنَّ لِكُلِّ أُمَّةٍ مَجُوسًا، وَمَجُوسُ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ الَّذِينَ يَقُولُونَ لَا قَدَرَ، فَمَنْ مَرِضَ مِنْهُمْ فَلَا تَعُودُوهُ، وَمَنْ مَاتَ مِنْهُمْ فَلَا تَشْهَدُوهُ، وَهُمْ شِيعَةُ الدَّجَّالِ، حَقًّا عَلَى اللهِ أَنْ يُلْحِقَهُمْ بِهِ " (٢)، ،
It is narrated from Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) said: Every nation has its Magians, and the Magians of this nation will be those who say that there is no such thing as destiny. If anyone among such people falls ill, do not visit him in his illness; if anyone dies, do not participate in his funeral. And this is the group of Dajjal; it is incumbent upon Allah to join them with Dajjal.

It is narrated from Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) that once we were with the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) at a funeral. When we reached near the grave, the Prophet (ﷺ) sat at its edge and kept looking into it repeatedly. Then he said that a Muslim is squeezed in the grave once, by which all his burdens are removed, and for the disbeliever, the grave is filled with fire. Then he said, "Shall I not tell you who is the worst servant of Allah? Every harsh and arrogant person." "Shall I not tell you about the best servants of Allah? Every weak person who is oppressed, who wears old sheets, but is such that if he swears by Allah's name for something, Allah surely fulfills his oath."

It is narrated from Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) would come to his bed at night, he would say: "O Allah! In Your name we live and die."

It is narrated from Hudhaifah bin Yaman (may Allah be pleased with him) that, by Allah! I know more than all people about all the tribulations that will occur from now until the Day of Judgment. It was not that the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) told me something exclusively that he did not tell anyone else, but rather, I was present in the gathering in which the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) mentioned these matters. Questions were being asked to the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) regarding tribulations, and the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) was counting them. Among them, there are three tribulations that will leave nothing untouched; some of them will be like the winds of summer, some will be small, and some will be great. Hudhaifah (may Allah be pleased with him) says that, except for me, all the participants of that gathering have departed from this world.

It is narrated from Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) presented before us examples of one, three, five, seven, nine, and eleven, some of which the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) explained at that time and left the rest, and said: There was a nation whose people were weak and poor; a powerful and numerous nation fought against them, so Allah granted dominance to the weak ones. They advanced towards their enemy, appointed their rulers over them, established authority over them, and became a cause of Allah’s displeasure upon them until they met Allah.

Rabi’ bin Hirash says that once I was sitting with Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) and Abu Mas’ud Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him), when one of them said to the other, “Tell us the ahadith you have heard from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him).” So one of them narrated this hadith and the other confirmed it, that I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say: On the Day of Resurrection, a man will be brought forth. Allah Almighty will say, “Look at his deeds.” He will say, “O Lord! I did not do any good deeds, except that I had wealth and I used to trade with people. If someone was well-off, I would make things easy for him, and if someone was in difficulty, I would give him respite until he was at ease.” Allah Almighty will say, “I am more entitled to ease than you.” Thus, he will be forgiven. The other companion confirmed him, saying, “I also heard the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say this.” Then he said, “I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say: On the Day of Resurrection, a man will be brought forth who, at the time of his death, said to his family, ‘When I die, burn me in fire, then crush my ashes, then on a day when a strong wind is blowing, scatter my ashes in the air.’ When he died, his family did as he had said. Allah gathered him in His power and asked him, ‘What made you do this?’ He said, ‘Your fear.’ Allah said, ‘I have forgiven you.’ The other companion also confirmed him in this.”

Abdur Rahman bin Abi Laila says that once I went out towards a village with Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him). He asked for water, so a farmer brought water in a silver vessel. Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) struck the vessel on his face. We signaled to each other to remain silent, because if we asked him, he would never have told us about it. So we remained silent. After a while, he himself said, "Do you know why I struck this vessel on his face?" We replied, "No." He said, "I had forbidden him before as well (but he did not refrain)." Then he told us that the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Do not drink anything in gold or silver vessels, and do not wear silk or brocade, because these things are for the disbelievers in this world and for you in the Hereafter."
