اُردوEn
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا أَزْهَرُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ عَوْنٍ ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، عَنْ عُبَيْدَةَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " خَيْرُ النَّاسِ أقَرانِي الَّذِينَ يَلُونِي ، ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ ، ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ قَالَ : وَلاَ أَدْرِي أَقَالَ فِي الثَّالِثَةِ ، أَوْ فِي الرَّابِعَةِ ، ثُمَّ يَخْلُفُ بَعْدَهُمْ خَلْفٌ تَسْبِقُ شَهَادَةُ أَحَدِهِمْ يَمِينَهُ ، وَيَمِينُهُ شَهَادَتَهُ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The best of people are those of my generation, then those who come after them, then those who come after them, then those who come after them. After that, there will come a people whose testimony will precede their oath, and whose oath will precede their testimony."
