اُردوEn
وَعَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ - يَعْنِي ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ - قَالَ : تَدْرُونَ كَيْفَ يَنْقُصُ الْإِسْلَامُ ؟ قَالُوا : كَمَا يَنْقُصُ صَبْغُ الثَّوْبِ ، وَكَمَا يَنْقُصُ سِمَنُ الدَّابَّةِ ، وَكَمَا يَنْقُصُ الدِّرْهَمُ مِنْ طُولِ الْخِبَاءِ . قَالَ : إِنَّ ذَلِكَ لَمِنْهُ ، وَأَكْبَرُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ مَوْتُ أَوْ ذَهَابُ الْعُلَمَاءِ .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْكَبِيرِ ، وَرِجَالُهُ مُوَثَّقُونَ .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْكَبِيرِ ، وَرِجَالُهُ مُوَثَّقُونَ .
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Do you know how Islam will diminish?" The people replied: "Just as the dye of a garment fades, or as the fatness of an animal diminishes, or as a dirham wears down after long use." Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "That is also part of it, but greater than all of these is the death of the scholars (the narrator is in doubt, or perhaps the words are:) the departure of the scholars."
