Who is this gentleman? He said: It seems you are a stranger? I said: Yes. He said: Had you been one of the people of this place, you would certainly have recognised him; this is Sayyiduna Hudhayfah bin al-Yaman (may Allah be pleased with him)."
Then he began speaking to the people and said: "People used to ask the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) about good, and I used to ask him (peace and blessings be upon him) about evil, so that I could guard against it, knowing that good would never escape me." He said: I said: "O Messenger of Allah! After this good in which we now are, will there be any evil?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Hudhayfah! Learn the Book of Allah and act upon what is in it." Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Yes, tribulation and discord." I said: "Will there then be any good after that?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Yes, a community that is (outwardly) united despite the grudges within it, and a truce in which corruption lies hidden." I said: "O Messenger of Allah! After that good, will there be any evil?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Hudhayfah! Learn the Book of Allah and act upon what is in it." This went on until I had repeated the same question to him (peace and blessings be upon him) three times, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) kept saying the same; then he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Yes, there will be a tribulation at whose gates will stand callers to the Fire.
