Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 4861 — Utay al-Sa'di (may Allah have mercy on him)

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ : نَا سَيْفُ بْنُ مِسْكِينٍ قَالَ : نَا مُبَارَكُ بْنُ فَضَالَةَ ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ ، عَنْ عُتَيٍّ السَّعْدِيِّ ، قَالَ عُتَيٌّ : خَرَجْتُ فِي طَلَبِ الْعِلْمِ حَتَّى قَدِمْتُ الْكُوفَةَ ، فَإِذَا أَنَا بِعَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ ، بَيْنَ ظَهْرَانَيْ أَهْلِ الْكُوفَةِ ، فَسَأَلْتُ عَنْهُ ، فَأُرْشِدْتُ إِلَيْهِ ، فَإِذَا هُوَ فِي مَسْجِدِهَا الْأَعْظَمِ فَأَتَيْتُهُ ، فَقُلْتُ : يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ إِنِّي جِئْتُ أَضْرِبُ إِلَيْكَ أَلْتَمِسُ مِنْكَ عِلْمًا ، لَعَلَّ اللهَ أَنْ يَنْفَعَنَا بِهِ بَعْدَكَ ، فَقَالَ لِي : مِمَّنِ الرَّجُلُ ؟ قُلْتُ : رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْبَصْرَةِ ، قَالَ : مِمَّنْ ؟ قُلْتُ : مِنْ هَذَا الْحَيِّ مِنْ بَنِي سَعْدٍ ، فَقَالَ لِي : يَا سَعْدِيُّ ، لَأُحَدِّثَنَّ فِيكُمْ بِحَدِيثٍ سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَأَتَاهُ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، أَلَا أَدُلُّكَ عَلَى قَوْمٍ : كَثِيرَةٌ أَمْوَالُهُمْ ، كَثِيرَةٌ شَوْكَتُهُمْ ، تُصِيبُ مِنْهُمْ مَالًا دَبْرًا ، أَوْ قَالَ : كَثِيرًا ؟ قَالَ : I " مَنْ هُمْ ؟ I " قَالَ : هَذَا الْحَيُّ مِنْ بَنِي سَعْدٍ ، مِنْ أَهْلِ الرِّمَالِ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ : مَهْ ، فَإِنَّ بَنِي سَعْدٍ عِنْدَ اللهِ ذُو حَظٍّ عَظِيمٍ .
سَلْ يَا سَعْدِيُّ ، قُلْتُ : أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، هَلْ لِلسَّاعَةِ مِنْ عِلْمٍ تُعْرَفُ بِهِ السَّاعَةُ ؟ قَالَ : وَكَانَ مُتَّكِئًا فَاسْتَوَى جَالِسًا ، فَقَالَ : يَا سَعْدِيُّ ، سَأَلْتَنِي عَمَّا سَأَلْتُ عَنْهُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، هَلْ لِلسَّاعَةِ مِنْ عِلْمٍ تُعْرَفُ بِهِ السَّاعَةُ ؟ فَقَالَ : نَعَمْ ، يَا ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ ، إِنَّ لِلسَّاعَةِ أَعْلَامًا ، وَإِنَّ لِلسَّاعَةِ أَشْرَاطًا ، أَلَا ، وَإِنَّ مِنْ أَعْلَامِ السَّاعَةِ وَأَشْرَاطِهَا أَنْ يَكُونَ الْوَلَدُ غَيْظًا ، وَأَنْ يَكُونَ الْمَطَرُ قَيْظًا ، وَأَنْ يَفِيضَ الْأَشْرَافُ فَيْضًا .
يَا ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ ، إِنَّ مِنْ أَعْلَامِ السَّاعَةِ وَأَشْرَاطِهَا أَنْ يُؤْتَمَنَ الْخَائِنُ ، وَأَنْ يُخَوَّنَ الْأَمِينُ ، يَا ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ ، إِنَّ مِنْ أَعْلَامِ السَّاعَةِ وَأَشْرَاطِهَا أَنْ تَوَاصَلَ الْأَطْبَاقُ ، وَأَنْ تَقَاطَعَ الْأَرْحَامُ ، يَا ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ ، إِنَّ مِنْ أَعْلَامِ السَّاعَةِ وَأَشْرَاطِهَا أَنْ يَسُودَ كُلَّ قَبِيلَةٍ مُنَافِقُوهَا ، وَكُلَّ سُوقٍ فُجَّارُهَا ، يَا ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ ، إِنَّ مِنْ أَعْلَامِ السَّاعَةِ وَأَشْرَاطِهَا أَنْ تُحَرَّفَ الْمَحَارِيبُ ، وَأَنْ تُخَرَّبَ الْقُلُوبُ ، يَا ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ إِنَّ مِنْ أَعْلَامِ السَّاعَةِ وَأَشْرَاطِهَا أَنْ يَكُونَ الْمُؤْمِنُ فِي الْقَبِيلَةِ أَذَلَّ مِنَ النَّقَدِ .
يَا ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ ، إِنَّ مِنْ أَعْلَامِ السَّاعَةِ وَأَشْرَاطِهَا أَنْ يَكْتَفِيَ الرِّجَالُ بِالرِّجَالِ ، وَالنِّسَاءُ بِالنِّسَاءِ ، يَا ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ ، إِنَّ مِنْ أَعْلَامِ السَّاعَةِ وَأَشْرَاطِهَا مُلْكُ الصِّبْيَانِ ، وَمُؤَامَرَةُ النِّسَاءِ ، يَا ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ ، إِنَّ مِنْ أَعْلَامِ السَّاعَةِ وَأَشْرَاطِهَا أَنْ تَكْثُفَ الْمَسَاجِدُ ، وَأَنْ تَعْلُوَ الْمَنَابِرُ ، يَا ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ ، إِنَّ مِنْ أَعْلَامِ السَّاعَةِ وَأَشْرَاطِهَا أَنْ يُعَمَّرَ خَرَابُ الدُّنْيَا ، وَيُخَرَّبَ عُمْرَانُهَا ، يَا ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ ، إِنَّ مِنْ أَعْلَامِ السَّاعَةِ وَأَشْرَاطِهَا أَنْ تَظْهَرَ الْمَعَازِفُ وَالْكِبْرُ ، وَشُرْبُ الْخُمُورِ ، يَا ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ ، إِنَّ مِنْ أَعْلَامِ السَّاعَةِ وَأَشْرَاطِهَا أَنْ يَكْثُرَ أَوْلَادُ الزِّنَا I " ، قُلْتُ : أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، وَهُمْ مُسْلِمُونَ ؟ قَالَ : نَعَمْ ، قُلْتُ : أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، وَالْقُرْآنُ بَيْنَ ظَهْرَانَيْهِمْ ؟ قَالَ : نَعَمْ ، قُلْتُ : أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، وَأَنَّى ذَلِكَ ؟ قَالَ : يَأْتِي عَلَى النَّاسِ زَمَانٌ يُطَلِّقُ الرَّجُلُ الْمَرْأَةَ ، ثُمَّ يَجْحَدُهَا طَلَاقَهَا ، فَيُقِيمُ عَلَى فَرْجِهَا ، فَهُمَا زَانِيَانِ مَا أَقَامَا .
لَمْ يَرْوِ هَذَيْنِ الْحَدِيثَيْنِ عَنْ مُبَارَكِ بْنِ فَضَالَةَ إِلَّا سَيْفُ بْنُ مِسْكِينٍ I " .
Utay al-Sa'di (may Allah have mercy on him) relates: I set out in search of knowledge until I reached Kufah, and there I found Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) (present) among the people of Kufah. I asked about him and was directed to him; he was at that time sitting in its grand mosque. I came to him and said: "O Abu Abd al-Rahman! I have come to you for the purpose of acquiring knowledge from you; perhaps Allah Almighty will benefit us by it after you." He asked me: "Which tribe are you from?" I said: "I am a man from the people of Basrah." He asked: "From whom in Basrah?" I said: "From this clan of Banu Sa'd." He said to me: "O Sa'di! I will tell you, concerning your people, a hadith that I heard from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) when a man came to him (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah! Shall I not point you to a people whose wealth is abundant and whose strength and might are great, from whom you will obtain a great deal of spoils? He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: 'Who are they?' The man said: This tribe of Banu Sa'd, who live in the sandy desert region. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Stop! For Banu Sa'd have a very great standing with Allah.'"
Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said: O Sa'di! Now ask (whatever you wish). I said: "O Abu Abd al-Rahman! Is there any sign of the Hour by which the Hour can be recognised?" The narrator says: He was reclining, and (on hearing this) he sat up straight and said: "O Sa'di! You have asked me the very question I asked the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). I said: O Messenger of Allah! Is there any sign of the Hour by which it can be recognised? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Yes, O Ibn Mas'ud! The Hour has certain signs and certain portents. Listen! Among the signs and portents of the Hour are that children will become (through disobedience) a cause of grief and anger to their parents, that rain will come in the hot season (out of its time), and that the nobles (ashraf) will spread out in great numbers.
O Ibn Mas'ud! Among the signs and portents of the Hour are that the treacherous will be trusted and the trustworthy will be deemed treacherous. O Ibn Mas'ud! Among the signs and portents of the Hour are that ties will be formed with strangers of other classes and ties of kinship will be severed. O Ibn Mas'ud! Among the signs and portents of the Hour are that the hypocrites of every tribe will become its leaders and the wicked of every market will lead it. O Ibn Mas'ud! Among the signs and portents of the Hour are that the prayer niches (mihrabs) will be altered (for show) and hearts will become desolate. O Ibn Mas'ud! Among the signs and portents of the Hour is that the believer among his people will be held more contemptible than a lowly, despised sheep.
O Ibn Mas'ud! Among the signs and portents of the Hour is that men will suffice themselves with men and women with women. O Ibn Mas'ud! Among the signs and portents of the Hour are the rule of children and the consultation of women. O Ibn Mas'ud! Among the signs and portents of the Hour are that mosques will be built in great numbers and pulpits will be raised high. O Ibn Mas'ud! Among the signs and portents of the Hour are that the desolate places of the world will be populated and its populated places made desolate. O Ibn Mas'ud! Among the signs and portents of the Hour is that musical instruments, arrogance and the drinking of wine will become widespread. O Ibn Mas'ud! Among the signs and portents of the Hour is that children of fornication will become many.'" I said: "O Abu Abd al-Rahman! Will they (who do this) be Muslims?" He said: "Yes." I said: "O Abu Abd al-Rahman! Will the Qur'an be present among them?" He said: "Yes." I said: "O Abu Abd al-Rahman! Then how will all this happen?" He said: "A time will come upon people when a man will divorce his wife, then deny his divorce and continue relations with her; so as long as the two remain in that state, they will be fornicators."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "These two hadiths were narrated from Mubarak bin Fadalah only by Sayf bin Miskin."
