Hadith 1895

حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، حَدَّثَنَا جَامِعٌ ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ ، عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ عُمَرُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ : مَنْ يَحْفَظُ حَدِيثًا عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الْفِتْنَةِ ، قَالَ حُذَيْفَةُ : أَنَا سَمِعْتُهُ ، يَقُولُ : " فِتْنَةُ الرَّجُلِ فِي أَهْلِهِ ، وَمَالِهِ ، وَجَارِهِ تُكَفِّرُهَا الصَّلَاةُ ، وَالصِّيَامُ ، وَالصَّدَقَةُ " ، قَالَ : لَيْسَ أَسْأَلُ عَنْ ذِهِ ، إِنَّمَا أَسْأَلُ عَنِ الَّتِي تَمُوجُ كَمَا يَمُوجُ الْبَحْرُ ، قَالَ : وَإِنَّ دُونَ ذَلِكَ بَابًا مُغْلَقًا ، قَالَ : فَيُفْتَحُ أَوْ يُكْسَرُ ، قَالَ : يُكْسَرُ ، قَالَ : ذَاكَ أَجْدَرُ أَنْ لَا يُغْلَقَ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ ، فَقُلْنَا لِمَسْرُوقٍ سَلْهُ : أَكَانَ عُمَرُ يَعْلَمُ مَنِ الْبَابُ ، فَسَأَلَهُ ، فَقَالَ : نَعَمْ ، كَمَا يَعْلَمُ أَنَّ دُونَ غَدٍ اللَّيْلَةَ .
Narrated Abu Wail from Hudhaifa: `Umar asked the people, "Who remembers the narration of the Prophet about the affliction?" Hudhaifa said, "I heard the Prophet saying, 'The affliction of a person in his property, family and neighbors is expiated by his prayers, fasting, and giving in charity." `Umar said, "I do not ask about that, but I ask about those afflictions which will spread like the waves of the sea." Hudhaifa replied, "There is a closed gate in front of those afflictions." `Umar asked, "Will that gate be opened or broken?" He replied, "It will be broken." `Umar said, "Then the gate will not be closed again till the Day of Resurrection." We said to Masruq, "Would you ask Hudhaifa whether `Umar knew what that gate symbolized?" He asked him and he replied "He (`Umar) knew it as one knows that there will be night before tomorrow, morning.
