Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 964

وَعَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ : كَانَ أَجْرَأُ النَّاسِ عَلَى مَسْأَلَةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - الْأَعْرَابُ ، وَأَتَاهُ أَعْرَابِيٌّ فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، مَتَى السَّاعَةُ ؟ فَلَمْ يُجِبْهُ بِشَيْءٍ حَتَّى أَتَى الْمَسْجِدَ ، فَصَلَّى فَأَخَفَّ الصَّلَاةَ ، ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ الْأَعْرَابِيُّ ، وَقَالَ : أَيْنَ السَّائِلُ عَنِ السَّاعَةِ ؟ وَمَرَّ بِهِ سَعْدٌ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " إِنَّ هَذَا عُمِّرَ حَتَّى يَأْكُلَ عُمْرَهُ ، لَمْ يَبْقَ مِنْكُمْ عَيْنٌ تَطْرِفُ " .
رَوَاهُ أَبُو يَعْلَى .
قُلْتُ : لِأَنَسٍ فِي الصَّحِيحِ : " إِنْ يَعِشْ هَذَا حَتَّى يَسْتَكْمِلَ عُمْرَهُ لَمْ يَمُتْ حَتَّى تَقُومَ السَّاعَةُ " ، وَهَذَا الْحَدِيثُ أَبْيَنُ ، وَإِنْ كَانَ فِيهِ سُفْيَانُ بْنُ وَكِيعٍ ، وَهُوَ ضَعِيفٌ .
Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Bedouins were the boldest of people in asking the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) questions. Once a Bedouin came to him and asked: "O Messenger of Allah! When will the Hour come?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave him no answer. He (peace and blessings be upon him) came to the mosque and offered a brief prayer, then he turned towards the Bedouin and said: "Where is the one who asked about the Hour?" Sayyiduna Sa'd (may Allah be pleased with him) passed by him, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If this man lives out his natural lifespan, not one of you will remain alive (by that time)." Abu Ya'la recorded it. (Allamah al-Haythami says:) I say: In the "Sahih" this narration is reported from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him): "If this one lives until he completes his natural lifespan, the Hour will be established before he dies."
This narration is clearer, even though its chain contains a narrator, Sufyan bin Waki', and he is da'if (weak).
