Hadith 12798
۔ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ اَنَّ اَخًا لِاَبِیْ مُوْسٰی الْاَشْعَرِیِّ رضی اللہ عنہ کَانَ یَتَسَرَّعُ فِیْ الْفِتْنَۃِ فَجَعَلَ یَنْہَاہُ وَلَا یَنْتَہِیْ فَقَالَ: اِنْ کُنْتُ اَرٰی اِنَّہُ سَیَکْفِیْکَ مِنِّیْ الْیَسِیْرُ اَوْ قَالَ مِنَ الْمَوْعِظَۃِ دُوْنَ مَا اَرٰی‘ وَاِنَّ رَسُوْلَ اللّٰہِ صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم قَالَ:(( اِذَا تَوَاجَہَ الْمُسْلِمَانِ بِسَیْفَیْہِمَا فَقَتَلَ اَحَدُھُمَا الآخَرَ، فَالْقَاتِلُ وَالْمَقْتُوْلُ فِی النَّارِ۔)) قَالُوْا: یَارَسُوْلَ اللّٰہِ! ہٰذَا الْقَاتِلُ، فَمَا بَالُ الْمَقْتُوْلِ؟ قَالَ :((اِنَّہٗاَرَادَ قَتْلَ صَاحِبِہٖ۔)) (مسنداحمد: 19819)
Hasan narrates that Sayyiduna Abu Musa Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him) had a brother who used to take an active part in the tribulations. He would forbid him, but he would not desist. One day, Sayyiduna Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) said to him: I used to think that a little admonition and advice from me would be sufficient for you, but the situation is that I am seeing the opposite. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When two Muslims come out against each other with their swords and one of them kills the other, then both the killer and the killed will be in Hell. The Companions asked: O Messenger of Allah! The killer is in Hell, but what is the reason for the killed being in Hell? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: He had intended to kill his opponent.
Hadith 12799
۔ وَعَنْ اَبِیْ بَکْرَۃَ رضی اللہ عنہ عَنِ النَّبِیِّ صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم اَنَّہٗقَالَ: ((اِذَاالْمُسْلِمَانِ حَمَلَاَحَدُھُمَاعَلٰی صَاحِبِہ ٖالسِّلَاحَ فَہُمَاعَلٰی طَرَفِ جَہَنَّمَ، فَاِذَا قَتَلَ اَحَدُھُمَا صَاحِبَہٗ،دَخَلَاھَاجَمِیْعًا۔))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Bakrah (may Allah be pleased with him), the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) said: When two Muslims raise weapons against each other, both of them are on the edge of Hell, and when one of them kills the other, both enter Hell.
Hadith 12800
۔ وَعَنْ اَبِیْ مُوْسٰی الْاَشْعَرِیِّ رضی اللہ عنہ اَنَّ رَسُوْلَ اللّٰہِ صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم قَالَ: ((اِنَّ بَیْنَیَدَیِ السَّاعَۃِ اَلْھَرْجَ۔))قَالُوْا:وَمَا الْھَرْجُ؟ قَالَ: ((اَلْقَتْلُ۔)) قَالُوْا :اَکْثَرُ مِمَّا نَقْتُلُ اِنَّا لَنَقْتُلُ کُلَّ َعامٍ اَکْثَرَ مِنْ سَبْعِیْنَ اَلْفًا قَالَ: ((اِنَّہٗلَیْسَ بِقَتْلِکُمُ الْمُشْرِکِیْنَ وَلٰکِنْ قَتْلُ بَعْضِکُمْ بَعْضًا۔)) قَالُوْا: وَمَعَنَا عَقُوْلُنَا یَوْمَئِذٍ قَالَ :((اِنَّہٗلَتُنْزَعُعُقُوْلُاَھْلِذٰلِکَالزَّمَانِوَیُخَلَّفُ لَہٗھَبَائٌمِّنَالنَّاسِیَحْسِبُ اَکْثَرُھُمْ اَنَّہُمْ عَلٰی شَیْ ئٍ وَلَیْسُوْا عَلٰی شَیْ ئٍ۔)) قَالَ عَفَّانُ فِیْ حَدِیْثِہٖ: قَالَ اَبُوْ مُوْسٰی: وَالَّذِیْ نَفْسِیْ بِیَدِہٖ مَا اَجِدُ لِیْ وَلَکُمْ مِنْہَا مَخْرَجًا اِنْ اَدْرَکْتْنِیْ وَاِیَّاکُمْ اِلَّا اَنْ نَّخْرُجَ مِنْہَا کَمَا دَخَلْنَا فِیْہَا لَمْ نُصِبْ مِنْہَا دَمًا وَلَا مَالًا۔
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Musa Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Before the Day of Judgment, there will be "Harj." The companions asked: What is meant by "Harj"? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: It means widespread killing. The companions asked: Will there be more killing than what we are doing now? These days, we kill more than seventy thousand people every year. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: This killing does not refer to killing the polytheists, rather it means that you Muslims will kill each other. The companions asked: When this situation arises, where will our intellects go in those days? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The intellects of the people of that era will be taken away from them, and ignorant people will dominate the government, and the majority of them will consider themselves to be on the right, while they will not be upon anything of the religion. The narrator of the hadith, Affan, said: Sayyiduna Abu Musa Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him) said: By Him in Whose hand is my soul! If I and you face such a situation, then I see only one way of salvation for myself and for you, and that is that just as we enter the tribulation empty-handed, we should leave it without taking or giving anything, neither shedding blood nor taking wealth.
Hadith 12801
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي ثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ قَيْسًا يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ الصُّنَابِحِيَّ الْأَحْمَسِيَّ يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: ((أَلَا إِنِّي فَرَطُكُمْ عَلَى الْحَوْضِ وَإِنِّي مُكَاثِرٌ بِكُمُ الْأُمَمَ، فَلَا تَقْتَتِلَنَّ بَعْدِي))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Sanabhi Ahmasi, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: I will be present at the Pond of Kawthar before you, and I will take pride over other nations because of your great numbers, so do not fight among yourselves after me.
Hadith 12802
(وَمِنْ طَرِيقٍ آخَرَ عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ أَبِي حَازِمٍ أَيْضًا) عَنِ الصُّنَابِحِيِّ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((إِنِّي مُكَاثِرٌ بِكُمُ الْأُمَمَ فَلَا تَرْجِعُنَّ بَعْدِي كُفَّارًا يَضْرِبُ بَعْضُكُمْ رِقَابَ بَعْضٍ))
(Second chain) The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: I will take pride over other communities because of your great numbers, so do not let it happen that after me you turn into disbelievers and start striking each other's necks.
Hadith 12803
وَعَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ قَالَ خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ وَنَحْنُ نَرْجُو أَنْ يُحَدِّثَنَا حَدِيثًا أَوْ حَدِيثًا حَسَنًا فَبَدَرَنَا رَجُلٌ مِنَّا يُقَالُ لَهُ الْحَكَمُ، فَقَالَ: يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ! مَا تَقُولُ فِي الْقِتَالِ فِي الْفِتْنَةِ؟ قَالَ: ثَكِلَتْكَ أُمُّكَ وَهَلْ تَدْرِي مَا الْفِتْنَةُ، إِنَّ مُحَمَّدًا صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يُقَاتِلُ الْمُشْرِكِينَ، فَكَانَ الدُّخُولُ فِيهِمْ أَوْ فِي دِينِهِمْ فِتْنَةً وَلَيْسَ كَقِتَالِكُمْ عَلَى الْمُلْكِ
Saeed bin Jubair says: Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) came to us. We expected that he would narrate to us a hadith of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) or tell us something good. One of us, a man named Hakam, hastened and said: O Abu Abdur Rahman! What do you say about fighting during the days of tribulation (fitnah)? He said: May your mother lose you! Do you know what fitnah is? Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) used to fight against the polytheists; at that time, joining the group of the polytheists or entering their religion was fitnah. That fighting was not like your fighting, which is fought for the sake of gaining power.
