أهلكه الشح، وبئست البطانة، أو بطانة السوء ، قال: قلنا له: ألا تخرج فنخرج معك؟ فقال: لأن أزاول جبلا راسيا أهون علي من أن أزاول ملكا مؤجلا

Scarcity has destroyed him, and I am miserable with a bad environment, because it is easier for me to pursue an upright mountain than to pursue a deferred kingdom.

تكون فتنة النائم فيها خير من المضطجع، والمضطجع فيها خير من القاعد، والقاعد فيها خير من القائم، والقائم خير من الماشي، والماشي خير من الراكب، والراكب خير من المجري، قتلاها كلها في النار قال: قلت: يا رسول الله، ومتى ذلك؟ قال: أيام الهرج قال: قلت: ومتى أيام الهرج؟ قال: حين لا يأمن الرجل جليسه قال: قلت: فبم تأمرني إن أدركت ذلك؟ قال: اكفف نفسك ويدك، وادخل دارك قال: قلت: يا رسول الله، أرأيت إن دخل علي داري؟ قال: فادخل بيتك قال: قلت: إن دخل علي بيتي؟ قال: فادخل مسجدك، ثم اصنع هكذا ثم قبض بيمينه على الكوع، " وقل: ربي الله، حتى تقتل على ذلك

The tribulation of the sleeper will be better than the one who is lying down, and the one who is lying down will be better than the one who is sitting, and the one who is sitting will be better than the one who is standing, and the one who is standing will be better than the one who is walking, and the one who is walking is better than the one who is riding, and the one who is riding is better than the one who is running. They will all be killed in Hell. He said: I said: O Messenger of Allah, and when will that be? He said: The days of Harj. He said: I said: When are the days of Harj? He said: When a man does not trust his companion. He said: I said: What do you order me to do if I realize that? He said: Restrain yourself and your hand, and enter your house. He said: I said: O Messenger of Allah, what do you think if he enters my house? He said: Then enter your house. He said: I said: If he enters my house? He said: Then enter your mosque, then do like this, then he held the elbow with his right hand, and say: My Lord is Allah, until you are killed for that.

إياكم والفتن، لا يشخص لها أحد، فوالله ما شخص لها أحد إلا نسفته كما ينسف السيل، إنها تشتبه مقبلة حتى يقول الجاهل: هذا يشبه، وتبين مدبرة، فإذا رأيتموها فاجتمعوا في بيوتكم، وكسروا سيوفكم، وقطعوا أوتاركم

Beware of temptations, no one detects them, for by Allah, no one detects them except that they destroy him as a flood destroys them. They are suspected of coming until the ignorant person says: This is similar, and they appear to be approaching, so if you see them, gather in your homes, break your swords, and cut your bowstrings.

إني لأعلم فتنة يوشك أن تكون التي قبلها معها كنفجة أرنب، وإني لأعلم المخرج منها ، قالوا: وما المخرج منها؟ قال: أن أمسك يدي حتى يجيء من يقتلني

إن الفتنة إذا أقبلت شبهت، وإذا أدبرت أسفرت، وإن الفتنة تلقح بالنجوى، وتنتج بالشكوى، فلا تثيروا الفتنة إذا حميت، ولا تعرضوا لها إذا عرضت، إن الفتنة راتعة في بلاد الله، تطأ في خطامها، لا يحل لأحد من البرية أن يوقظها حتى يأذن الله تعالى لها، الويل لمن أخذ بخطامها، ثم الويل له

When temptation approaches, it becomes suspicious, and when it returns, it spreads. And temptation is fertilized by contentions and produced by complaints, so do not stir up temptation when it is heated, and do not expose yourself to it when it appears. Indeed, temptation is lurking in Allah’s lands. It sets in its snouts. It is not permissible for anyone from the wilderness to awaken it until Allah Almighty permits it. Woe to whoever takes its snouts, then woe to him.

وكلت الفتنة بثلاث: بالجاد النحرير الذي لا يريد أن يرتفع له منها شيء إلا قمعه بالسيف، وبالخطيب الذي يدعو إليه الأمور، وبالشريف المذكور، فأما الجاد النحرير فتصرعه، وأما هذان الخطيب والشريف فتحثهما حتى تبلو ما عندهما

Narrated Hudhaifa bin Al-Yaman:The people used to ask Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) about the good but I used to ask him about the evil lest I should be overtaken by them. So I said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! We were living in ignorance and in an (extremely) worst atmosphere, then Allah brought to us this good (i.e., Islam); will there be any evil after this good?" He said, "Yes." I said, 'Will there be any good after that evil?" He replied, "Yes, but it will be tainted (not pure.)'' I asked, "What will be its taint?" He replied, "(There will be) some people who will guide others not according to my tradition? You will approve of some of their deeds and disapprove of some others." I asked, "Will there be any evil after that good?" He replied, "Yes, (there will be) some people calling at the gates of the (Hell) Fire, and whoever will respond to their call, will be thrown by them into the (Hell) Fire." I said, "O Allah's Apostle! Will you describe them to us?" He said, "They will be from our own people and will speak our language." I said, "What do you order me to do if such a state should take place in my life?" He said, "Stick to the group of Muslims and their Imam (ruler)." I said, "If there is neither a group of Muslims nor an Imam (ruler)?" He said, "Then turn away from all those sects even if you were to bite (eat) the roots of a tree till death overtakes you while you are in that state
