وَعَنْ زَهْدَمٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عِمْرَانَ بْنَ حُصَيْنٍ يُحَدِّثُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ ”إِنَّ خَيْرَكُمْ قَرْنِي ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ“ قَالَ عِمْرَانُ فَلَا أَدْرِي قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَعْدَ قَرْنِهِ مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثًا ثُمَّ يَكُونُ بَعْدَهُمْ قَوْمٌ يَشْهَدُونَ وَلَا يُسْتَشْهَدُونَ وَيَخُونُونَ وَلَا يُؤْتَمَنُونَ وَيَنْذُرُونَ وَلَا يُوفُونَ وَيَظْهَرُ فِيهِمُ السِّمَنُ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Imran bin Husain, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "The best time for you is my era, then the era of those who will come after that, then the era of those who will come after them, and then the era of those who will come after them will be better. Then after them, there will come people from whom testimony will not be sought, but they will still give testimony; they will commit betrayals, will not safeguard trusts, they will make vows but will not fulfill them, and obesity will become common among them." Sayyiduna Imran, may Allah be pleased with him, says: "I do not remember whether the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, mentioned two eras after his own or three."
