Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 988

وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " تَكْثُرُ الْفِتَنُ ، وَيَكْثُرُ الْهَرْجُ ، وَيُرْفَعُ الْعِلْمُ " ، فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ عُمَرُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يَقُولُ : " يُرْفَعُ الْعِلْمُ " - قَالَ عُمَرُ : أَمَا إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ يُنْزَعُ مِنْ صُدُورِ الرِّجَالِ ، وَلَكِنْ تَذْهَبُ الْعُلَمَاءُ .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ وَالْبَزَّارُ - وَهُوَ فِي الصَّحِيحِ خَلَا قَوْلَ عُمَرَ - وَرِجَالُهُ رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ .
Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Trials (fitan) will become widespread, killing (harj) will become widespread, and knowledge will be lifted." When Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) heard Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) saying that knowledge will be lifted, Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "It will not be removed from the breasts of men; rather, the scholars will depart."
Ahmad and al-Bazzar recorded it; it is also reported in the "Sahih", but without the statement of Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him). Its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih.
