أَخْبَرَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أَبِي خَالِدٍ، عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، قَالَ: كُنْتُ جَالِسًا عِنْدَ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ: إِنَّ هَؤُلَاءِ أَقْرِبَائِي يُسَلِّمُونَ عَلَيْكَ وَيَسْأَلُونَكَ أَنْ تُحَدِّثَهُمْ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: صَحِبْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ثَلَاثَ سِنِينَ وَلَمْ أَكُنْ سَنَوَاتٍ أَعْقَلَ مِنِّي فِيهِنَّ وَلَا أَجْدَرَ أَنْ أَعِيَ مَا سَمِعْتُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنِّي فِيهِنَّ، سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: ((تُقَاتِلُونَ قَوْمًا قُرَيْبَ السَّاعَةِ نِعَالُهُمُ الشَّعْرُ وَتُقَاتِلُونَ قَوْمًا خُلُسَ الْوُجُوهِ صِغَارَ الْأَعْيُنِ، كَأَنَّ وَجُوهَهُمُ الْمَجَانُّ الْمُطْرَقَةُ، وَالَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ لَأَنْ يَحْتَطِبَ أَحَدُكُمْ عَلَى ظَهْرِهِ فَيَبِيعَهُ فَيَسْتَغْنِي بِهِ وَيَتَصَدَّقَ مِنْهُ وَيَأْكُلَ خَيْرٌ لَهُ مِنْ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ رَجُلًا فَيَسَأَلَهُ لَعَلَّهُ أَنْ يُؤْتِيَهُ أَوْ يَمْنَعَهُ ذَلِكَ فَإِنَّ الْيَدَ الْعُلْيَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ الْيَدِ السُّفْلَى، وَابْدَأْ بِمَنْ تَعُولُ، وَلَخُلُوفُ فَمِ الصَّائِمِ أَطْيَبُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ مِنْ رِيحِ الْمِسْكَ)) .
Sayyiduna Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "Near the Day of Judgment, you will fight against a people whose shoes will be made of hair; you will fight against a people whose faces will be flat, their eyes small, as if their faces are like folded shields. By the One in whose hand is the life of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)! If any one of you were to carry a bundle of wood on his back, sell it, become self-sufficient through it, give charity from it, and eat from it, that would be better for him than going to someone and asking him, whether he gives or withholds. The upper hand is better than the lower hand, and begin spending on those under your care. The smell from the mouth of a fasting person is better with Allah than the fragrance of musk."
