Hadith 2250

حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادٌ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " مَا عَلَى الْأَرْضِ نَفْسٌ مَنْفُوسَةٌ ، يَعْنِي الْيَوْمَ تَأْتِي عَلَيْهَا مِائَةُ سَنَةٍ " ، قَالَ : وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ، وَأَبِي سَعِيدٍ ، وَبُرَيْدَةَ ، قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى : هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ .
´It was narrated from Jabir, that the Prophet(s.a.w) said:` "There is no soul born upon the earth – meaning today – upon whom will come one hundred years." (Sahih)

Hadith Commentary: Benefits and Issues: The meaning of "after the return from the Battle of Tabuk" is not that this question was asked immediately afterwards; rather, it simply means that the question was asked sometime after that event. From the narration of Jabir radi Allahu anhu, it is understood that this occurred in the last days of the Prophet's sallallahu alayhi wa sallam life. In response, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam did not inform about the time of the Day of Judgment for the entire world; rather, he mentioned the "Day of Judgment" (death) for those present at that time, indicating that one should be concerned about one's own end.
