(الصَّالِحُونَ وَالنِّيَابُ يَرْحَلُونَ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا)
(The righteous and virtuous will depart from the world)
Hadith 5362
وَعَن مرداس الْأَسْلَمِيّ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «يَذْهَبُ الصَّالِحُونَ الْأَوَّلُ فَالْأَوَّلُ وَتَبْقَى حُفَالَةٌ كَحُفَالَةِ الشَّعِيرِ أَوِ التَّمْرِ لَا يُبَالِيهِمُ اللَّهُ بالةً» . رَوَاهُ البُخَارِيّ
Mirdas Aslami (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "The righteous people will depart one by one, and only useless people will remain, like the husk of barley or the refuse of dates, who will have no value in the sight of Allah." Narrated by al-Bukhari.
