Hadith 8308

حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ , قَال : " لَا تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ حَتَّى يَأْخُذَ أُمَّتِي مَا أَخَذَ الْأُمَمَ وَالْقُرُونَ قَبْلَهَا ، شِبْرًا بِشِبْرٍ ، وَذِرَاعًا بِذِرَاعٍ " ، قَالُوا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، كَمَا فَعَلَتْ فَارِسُ وَالرُّومُ ؟ قَالَ : " وَهَلْ النَّاسُ إِلَّا أُولَئِك ؟ ! " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The Day of Judgment will not be established until my Ummah indulges in the deeds of the previous nations, span by span and cubit by cubit. The companions (may Allah be pleased with them) asked: O Messenger of Allah, like the people of Persia and Rome did? The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Then who else besides them were among the previous people?
