عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَوَلَةَ قَالَ : بَيْنَا أَنَا أَسِيرُ بِالْأَهْوَازِ إِذْ أَنَا بِرَجُلٍ يَسِيرُ بَيْنَ يَدِيَّ عَلَى بَغْلٍ أَوْ بَغْلَةٍ ، وَهُوَ يَقُولُ : اللَّهُمَّ ذَهَبَ قَرْنِي مِنْ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ فَأَلْحِقْنِي بِهِمْ ، فَقُلْتُ : وَأَنَا أَدْخُلُ فِي دَعْوَتِكَ ؟ قَالَ : وَصَاحِبِي هَذَا إِنْ أَرَادَ ذَلِكَ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " خَيْرُ أُمَّتِي قَرْنِي مِنْهُمْ ، ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ " . فَلَا أَدْرِي ذَكَرَ الثَّالِثَ أَمْ لَا ؟ " ثُمَّ يَخْلُفُ قَوْمٌ يَظْهَرُ فِيهِمُ السِّمَنُ ، يُهَرِيقُونَ الشَّهَادَةَ ، وَلَا يُسْأَلُونَهَا " . وَإِذَا هُوَ بُرَيْدَةُ الْأَسْلَمِيُّ .
Abdullah bin Mawalah said: Once I was travelling in "al-Ahwaz", and a man was going ahead of me, riding a mule. He was saying: "O Allah, my generation of this ummah is departing, so join me with them." I said: "I too wish to be included in your supplication." He said: "And this companion of mine too, if he wishes it, then do so." Then he said that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The best of my ummah are the people of my generation, then those who come after them." The narrator said: I do not know whether he mentioned a third time or not. (The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:) "Then people will come among whom obesity will appear; they will give testimony although testimony will not have been asked of them." The narrator said: That man was Sayyiduna Buraydah al-Aslami (may Allah be pleased with him).
