مُسْنَدُ سَعْدِ بْنِ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ
Musnad of Sa'd bin Abi Waqqas
Musnad Abi Ya'la 756 — he heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: Indeed
حَدَّثَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ مَعْرُوفٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو صَخْرٍ ، أَنَّ أَبَا حَازِمٍ حَدَّثَهُ عَنِ ابْنِ سَعْدٍ قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ أَبِي يَقُولُ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يَقُولُ : « إِنَّ الْإِيمَانَ بَدَأَ غَرِيبًا وَسَيَعُودُ كَمَا بَدَأَ ، فَطُوبَى لِلْغُرَبَاءِ يَوْمَئِذٍ ، إِذَا فَسَدَ النَّاسُ ، وَالَّذِي نَفْسُ أَبِي الْقَاسِمِ بِيَدِهِ لَيَأْرِزَنَّ الْإِسْلَامُ بَيْنَ هَذَيْنِ الْمَسْجِدَيْنِ كَمَا تَأْرِزُ الْحَيَّةُ فِي جُحْرِهَا » .
Sayyiduna Sa'd (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that he heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "Indeed, faith began as something strange and it will soon return as it began. So glad tidings on that day for the strangers, when the people have become corrupt. By the One in whose Hand is the soul of Abu al-Qasim! Islam will retreat between these two mosques just as a snake retreats into its hole."
