(مَا هِيَ أَخْبَارُ الأَرْضِ؟)
(What are the tidings of the earth?)
Hadith 5544
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: قَرَأَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ: (يَوْمَئِذٍ تُحدِّثُ أخبارَها) قَالَ: أَتَدْرُونَ مَا أَخْبَارُهَا؟ قَالُوا: اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ. قَالَ: فَإِنَّ أَخْبَارَهَا أَنْ تَشْهَدَ عَلَى كلِّ عَبْدٍ وَأَمَةٍ بِمَا عَمِلَ عَلَى ظَهْرِهَا أَنْ تَقول: عمِلَ عَليَّ كَذَا وَكَذَا يومَ كَذَا وَكَذَا . قَالَ: «فَهَذِهِ أَخْبَارُهَا» . رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ وَالتِّرْمِذِيُّ وَقَالَ: هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ غَرِيبٌ
Aba Huraira-told that God's messenger recited this verse, "On that day it will, tell its news," [*] and asked whether they knew what its news would be. On their replying that God and His messenger knew best he said, " Its news will be that it will tell what every man and woman did when they were on it, saying they did such and such a thing on such and such a day. This will be its news." *Quran; 99:4, the reference being to the earth. Ahmad and Tirmidhi transmitted it, Tirmidhi saying this is a hasan sahih gharib tradition.
