Kitab al-Fitan · Nu'aym ibn Hammad

No one is saved from its evil except the one who prays, such as the supplication of drowning. The happiest of its people is every secret pious person, who if he appears is not known, and if he sits down he is not missed, and the most miserable of its people is every preacher who is praying, or who is riding in a place.

It will be a trial from which only those who are not afflicted by her wealth will be saved, and whoever is afflicted by her wealth is like one who is afflicted by her blood

The happiest people in it are everything that is hidden. If it appears, it is not known, and if it sits, it is not missed

You will turn to disbelief, for the believer on that day is the one who sits in his house, and the unbeliever is the one who draws his sword and sheds the blood of his brother and the blood of his neighbor.

Whoever dies and does not associate anything with Allah, and does not shed any forbidden blood, will enter through any gates of Paradise he wishes

Ibn Al-Mubarak told us, on the authority of Hisham, on the authority of Al-Hasan, who said: Abu Musa Al-Ash’ari, (may Allah be pleased with him), said: “There is no opponent more hateful to me when I meet him on the Day of Resurrection than a man who comes with his veins dripping with blood, and detains me at the scales of justice, and says: O Lord, ask your servant why he killed me, and I say: he lied, so I cannot say: he was an infidel, and he says: you know my servant more than me.”

Ibn Al-Mubarak told us, on the authority of Suleiman bin Al-Mughirah, on the authority of Humaid bin Hilal, on the authority of Jundub bin Abdullah, who said: “None of you shall meet Allah on the Day of Resurrection with a palm full of the blood of a man who says: There is no god but Allah, for whoever prays the dawn prayer is under Allah’s protection. So let none of you dig Allah with his hoof, lest Allah Almighty cast him down when he gathers the first and the last into Hell.”

Yes yes

Let any one of you fear Allah, and let nothing come between him and Paradise after he looks at its gates with a handful of Muslim blood spilled by him.

Nothing will come between any of you and Paradise after he has looked at its gates, filled with a handful of Muslim blood that he has spilled

If a calamity befalls, and your money is given instead of your debt, then the ruined is the one whose religion is ruined, and the robbed is the one whose religion is robbed, and know that there is no wealth after Hell, and no poverty after Paradise. Indeed, its captive will not be freed from Hell, and its poor will not be freed from it.

Oh Allah, hold the killers of Uthman to their throats today

The one in the Levant, meaning Marwan, by Allah, fights only for the sake of this world, and the one in Mecca, meaning Ibn al-Zubayr, by Allah, fights only for the sake of this world, and those whom you call your readers, by Allah, fights only for the sake of this world. I do not see the best of people except a cluttered gang, empty stomachs from people’s money, thin in appearance from their blood.

Imams will rise up against you that you know about and you deny. Whoever denies is saved, and whoever hates it is saved. But whoever is satisfied and follows it, as for what they prayed, there is no

As for as long as they perform prayer, no

The worst of your imams are those whom you hate and they hate you, and you curse them and they curse you, as long as they establish prayer among you, no. Except for the one who is appointed over him and sees him committing any act of disobedience to Allah, let him hate what comes of disobedience to Allah, and not withdraw his hand from obedience.

Get used to being patient before calamity befalls you, for it will not befall you more severely than what befell us with the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ.

O Abu Dhar, how do you do if people are hungry so that you cannot get from your bed to your mosque, and from your mosque to your bed? You come from whomever you are. You enter your house if you fear that the beam of the sword will dazzle you. Then throw the band of your cloak over your face. He will bear your sin and his sin if you associate him with it.

O my nephew, come back and sit in your house until Allah brings His command, for I have no need to shed blood

My princes began to give me the choice of staying on what my nose forced me to do, and making my face ugly, or taking my sword and fighting and killing, then entering the Fire. So I chose to stick to what my nose forced me to do, and making my face ugly, and not taking my sword and fighting and killing, then entering the Fire.

Do not be deceived by what you see and people returning to the mosque, for these people are about to abandon their religion, just as a woman abandons her kiss. If they do that, then you should be as you are today.

Enjoining good and forbidding evil is good, and it is not Sunnah to raise weapons against your imam

Ibn Al-Mubarak told us, on the authority of Muhammad bin Talha Al-Yami, on the authority of Ibrahim bin Abdul-Ala, on the authority of Suwayd bin Ghafla, he said: Omar, (may Allah be pleased with him), said to me: “Perhaps you will remain until you realize the temptation, so listen and obey, and if there is an Abyssinian slave against you, if he hits you, be patient, or deprives you, or oppresses you, then be patient, and if he wants you to do something that will diminish you in your religion, then say: listen and obey, my blood is not my religion.”

O people, do not kill Othman, for by the One in whose hand is my soul, no nation has ever killed its prophet so that Allah would rectify their affairs until they shed the blood of seventy thousand of them, and no nation has ever killed its successor so Allah would rectify their affairs until they shed the blood of forty thousand of them.

When you put your sword down, I decided against you, because what you want is my soul, so I will protect the believers today with myself
