The various classes of the children of Adam

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) led us in the Asr prayer, then after Asr he (peace and blessings be upon him) stood up to deliver a sermon until the sun set. Whoever remembered it remembered it, and whoever forgot it forgot it. In this sermon he (peace and blessings be upon him) informed us of what would happen until the Day of Resurrection. He (peace and blessings be upon him) praised and extolled Allah Almighty and said: "To proceed: this world is indeed sweet and green, and Allah Almighty is going to make you successors in it and see how you act. Beware! Guard yourselves against (the trials of) the world and women. Listen! The children of Adam have been created in different classes. Among them is one who is born a believer, lives a believer and dies a believer; one who is born a disbeliever, lives a disbeliever and dies a disbeliever; one who is born a believer and lives a believer but whose death is upon disbelief; and one who is born a disbeliever and lives a disbeliever but whose death is upon faith. Listen! Anger is a blazing ember in the interior (the breast) of the son of Adam. Have you not seen the redness of the eyes of an angry person and the swelling of his veins? So when any of you feels something of that state, let him cling to the ground. Listen! The best of men is the one who is slow to anger and quick to be pleased again, and the worst of men is the one who is quick to anger and slow to be pleased again. So if a person is quick to anger and quick to be pleased again, then these two traits offset each other; likewise, if someone is slow to anger and slow to be pleased again, this too is even. Listen! The best of merchants is the one who is good in repaying and gentle in demanding, and the worst of merchants is the one who is bad in repaying and harsh in demanding. So if someone is bad in repaying and bad in demanding, this is even; and if someone is bad in repaying but good in demanding, this too offsets the other. Listen! Let not awe of people prevent a man from speaking the truth when he knows it. Listen! On the Day of Resurrection every covenant-breaker (traitor) will have a banner according to the extent of his treachery, and know that the greatest treachery is the treachery of the leader (ruler) of the general public, and the traitor's banner will be planted by his lower back. Listen! The best jihad is to speak a word of truth before a tyrannical ruler." Then, when the sun was about to set, he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Compared to the time that has passed, as much of the world's lifespan remains as remains of this day of yours after what has passed of it."
In narrating this hadith with this wording, Ali bin Zayd bin Jud'an al-Qurashi is alone in narrating it from Abu Nadrah, and the two Shaykhs did not use Ali bin Zayd as evidence.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that a night will come upon the Book of Allah Almighty when it will be taken up (from the earth) to the heaven. So in the morning not a single verse of the Qur'an will remain on the earth, nor will any verse of the Torah, the Injil or the Zabur survive. And it will also be pulled out of people's hearts, so they will reach the morning not knowing at all what this (Qur'an) was.
This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of Imam Muslim, but the two Shaykhs did not record it.
