٤٠١٣٢ - حدثنا عبيد اللَّه بن موسى عن شيبان عن الأعمش عن عمرو بن مرة عن زاذان (قال) (١): سمعت حذيفة يقول: ليأتين عليكم زمان خيركم فيه من لا يأمر بمعروف ولا ينهى عن منكر، فقال رجل من القوم: أيأتي علينا زمان نرى ⦗٢٧٧⦘ المنكر فيه فلا نغيره؟ قال: واللَّه (لتفعلُنَّ) (٢)، قال: فجعل حذيفة يقول بإصبعه في عينه: كذبت واللَّه -ثلاثًا قال الرجل: فكذبتُ و (صدق) (٣) (٤).
It is narrated from Hazrat Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) that surely a time will come upon you in which the best among you will be the one who does not enjoin good. One of the people said, "Will such a time come upon us in which we will see evil and not stop it? No, by Allah, we will surely do so." The narrator says that Hazrat Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) was pointing towards his eye with his finger and saying, "By Allah, you have lied." He said this three times. That man said, "I have lied and he has spoken the truth."
