Era of the Companions after the Prophet was the best
Hadith 3313
- " خير أمتي القرن الذين بعثت فيهم، ثم الذين يلونهم، ثم الذين يلونهم - والله أعلم أذكر الثالث أم لا - ثم يظهر قوم يشهدون ولا يستشهدون وينذرون ولا يوفون ويخونون ولا يؤتمنون، ويفشو فيهم السمن ".
Sayyiduna Imran bin Husain (may Allah be pleased with both of them) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "The best individuals of my Ummah are those among whom I was sent, then those who will come after them, then those who will come after them." Allah Almighty knows best whether he mentioned the third time or not. "Then there will come people who will give testimony though it will not be sought from them, they will make vows but will not fulfill them, they will be treacherous and will not be trustworthy, and among them (due to inclination towards worldly pleasures) obesity will become common."
