Sayyiduna Abu al-Darda' (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I said: "O Messenger of Allah! This report has reached me that you (peace and blessings be upon him) say: 'There will be some people in my Ummah who will soon disbelieve after having believed.'" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Yes, O Abu al-Darda' (that is, this will happen), but you are not one of them."
Al-Tabarani recorded it, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih, except for Abu Abdullah al-Ash'ari, who is thiqah (trustworthy).
