عَنْ عَلِيٍّ - يَعْنِي ابْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ - قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " لَا تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ حَتَّى يَلْتَمِسَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِي كَمَا تُلْتَمَسُ - أَوْ تُبْتَغَى - الضَّالَّةُ فَلَا تُوجَدُ " .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ وَالْبَزَّارُ ، وَفِيهِ الْحَارِثُ الْأَعْوَرُ ، وَهُوَ ضَعِيفٌ ، وَقَدْ وُثِّقَ عَلَى ضَعْفِهِ .
Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The Hour will not be established until a man from among my Companions is searched for just as a lost thing is searched for, and then he is not found." (The narrator is in doubt about one word here.)
Imam Ahmad and Imam al-Bazzar recorded it. Its chain contains a narrator, al-Harith al-A'war, and he is da'if (weak), and despite his weakness he has been declared trustworthy.

وَعَنْ جَابِرٍ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : " لَيَأْتِينَّ عَلَى النَّاسِ زَمَانٌ يَخْرُجُ الْجَيْشُ مِنْ جُيُوشِهِمْ فَيُقَالُ : هَلْ فِيكُمْ مَنْ صَحِبَ مُحَمَّدًا - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ؟ فَيَسْتَنْصِرُونَ بِهِ فَيُنْصَرُوا ، ثُمَّ يُقَالُ : هَلْ فِيكُمْ مَنْ صَحِبَ مُحَمَّدًا - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ؟ فَيُقَالُ : لَا ، فَمَنْ صَحِبَ أَصْحَابَهُ ؟ فَيُقَالُ : مَنْ رَأَى مَنْ صَحِبَ أَصْحَابَهُ ، فَلَوْ سَمِعُوا بِهِ مِنْ وَرَاءِ الْبَحْرِ لَأَتَوْهُ " .
Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) said that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "A time will surely come upon the people when their army will set out and it will be asked: 'Is there anyone among you who was a Companion of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)?' Then the people will seek help through that person, and they will be helped. Then a time will come when it will be said: 'Is there anyone who was a Companion of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)?' It will be answered: 'No.' Then it will be asked: 'Is there anyone who kept company with his Companions?' Then it will be said: 'Who is there who saw someone who kept company with his Companions?' And if the people were to learn of such a person being beyond the sea, they would still go to him."

In one narration the wording is: "Then people will remain who will recite the Qur'an, but they will not understand what it means."
