Hadith 6173

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ عُمَرَ ، حَدَّثَنِي كَثِيرٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ زَيْدٍ ، عَنِ الْمُطَّلِبِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ , أَنَّهُ كَانَ وَاقِفًا بِعَرَفَاتٍ ، فَنَظَرَ إِلَى الشَّمْسِ حِينَ تَدَلَّتْ مِثْلَ التُّرْسِ لِلْغُرُوبِ ، فَبَكَى ، وَاشْتَدَّ بُكَاؤُهُ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ رَجُلٌ عِنْدَهُ : يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، قَدْ وَقَفْتَ مَعِي مِرَارًا لِمَ تَصْنَعُ هَذَا ! فَقَالَ : ذَكَرْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ وَاقِفٌ بِمَكَانِي هَذَا ، فَقَالَ : " أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ ، إِنَّهُ لَمْ يَبْقَ مِنْ دُنْيَاكُمْ فِيمَا مَضَى مِنْهَا إِلَّا كَمَا بَقِيَ مِنْ يَوْمِكُمْ هَذَا فِيمَا مَضَى مِنْهُ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that he was once standing in the plain of Arafat. He saw the sun, which was hanging like a shield about to set. Seeing this, he began to weep and wept profusely. A man asked, "O Abu Abdur Rahman, I have had the opportunity to stand with you several times, but you have never done this before?" He replied, "The memory of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came to me. He too stood at this very place. He said: 'O people! The proportion of what remains of the life of this world compared to what has passed is only as much as the remaining part of this day compared to the part of the day that has already passed.'"
