Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 12351

وَعَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " تَزْعُمُونَ أَنِّي مِنْ آخِرِكُمْ وَفَاةً ، أَلَا وَأَنِّي مِنْ أَوَّلِكُمْ وَفَاةً ، وَلَتَتَّبِعُنِّي أَفْنَادًا يَضْرِبُ بَعْضُكُمْ رِقَابَ بَعْضٍ " .
رَوَاهُ أَبُو يَعْلَى وَالطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْأَوْسَطِ وَالْكَبِيرِ ، وَلَفْظُهُ فِيهِ : عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ قَالَ : كُنَّا جُلُوسًا فِي الْمَسْجِدِ إِذْ خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَقَالَ : " إِنَّكُمْ تَتَحَدَّثُونَ أَنِّي مِنْ آخِرِكُمْ وَفَاةً ، أَلَا وَإِنِّي مِنْ أَوَّلِكُمْ وَفَاةً ، وَتَتَّبِعُنِّي أَفْنَادًا يُفْنِي بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا " . ثُمَّ نَزَعَ بِهَذِهِ الْآيَةِ : قُلْ هُوَ الْقَادِرُ عَلَى أَنْ يَبْعَثَ عَلَيْكُمْ عَذَابًا مِنْ فَوْقِكُمْ أَوْ مِنْ تَحْتِ أَرْجُلِكُمْ حَتَّى بَلَغَ لِكُلِّ نَبَإٍ مُسْتَقَرٌّ وَسَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ "
ثُمَّ قَالَ : " لَا تَبْرَحُ عِصَابَةٌ مِنْ أُمَّتِي يُقَاتِلُونَ عَلَى الْحَقِّ ظَاهِرِينَ ، لَا يُبَالُونَ خِذْلَانَ مَنْ خَذَلَهُمْ وَلَا مَنْ خَالَفَهُمْ ، حَتَّى يَأْتِيَ أَمْرُ اللَّهِ عَلَى ذَلِكَ " . ثُمَّ نَزَعَ بِهَذِهِ الْآيَةِ : يَا عِيسَى إِنِّي مُتَوَفِّيكَ وَرَافِعُكَ إِلَيَّ وَمُطَهِّرُكَ مِنَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا وَجَاعِلُ الَّذِينَ اتَّبَعُوكَ فَوْقَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ . وَرِجَالُهُمْ ثِقَاتٌ .
Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "You think that I will pass away after all of you, whereas I will pass away before all of you, and after me you will be divided into different factions and will strike off one another's necks."
Abu Ya'la and al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir, and their wording there is: Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah bin Abi Sufyan (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: Once we were sitting in the mosque when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came out among us and said: You are talking about how I will pass away after all of you? Beware! I will pass away before all of you, and after me you will be divided into factions and will annihilate one another. Then he recited this verse: "Say: He is able to send upon you a punishment from above you or from beneath your feet." The verse continues up to: "For every news there is an appointed time (of occurrence), and soon you will come to know." Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: A group of my Ummah will always fight upon the truth and will remain dominant; whoever tries to forsake them will not be able to harm them, and whoever opposes them will not be able to harm them either, until the command of Allah (that is, the Hour) comes while they are in that state. Then he recited this verse: "O Isa! I will take you, raise you to Myself, purify you from those who disbelieved, and place those who follow you above those who disbelieved until the Day of Resurrection." The narrators of this report are thiqat (trustworthy).
