Hadith 476
۞
476. Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Al-Nowfaly, from Al-Sakuny, who has narrated the following
Abu Abdullah (asws) has said that the Rasool Allah (saww) said: ‘There will come a time upon my (saww) community when they will be ugly in their inner selves and beautiful in their appearances. They will be greedy for what is in the world and will not be intending what is in the Presence of Allah (azwj), their Lord (azwj). Their Religion would have become a (matter of) show-off. Fear will not have entered into them. Allah (azwj) would Prevail over them with Punishment. So they would be supplicating by the supplication of the Drowning One (Du’a Al-Ghareek), so He (azwj) will not Answer to them’.
عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ النَّوْفَلِيِّ عَنِ السَّكُونِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلام) قَالَ
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ (صلى الله عليه وآله) سَيَأْتِي عَلَى أُمَّتِي زَمَانٌ تَخْبُثُ فِيهِ سَرَائِرُهُمْ وَ تَحْسُنُ فِيهِ عَلَانِيَتُهُمْ طَمَعاً فِي الدُّنْيَا وَ لَا يُرِيدُونَ بِهِ مَا عِنْدَ اللَّهِ رَبِّهِمْ يَكُونُ دِينُهُمْ رِيَاءً لَا يُخَالِطُهُمْ خَوْفٌ يَعُمُّهُمُ اللَّهُ مِنْهُ بِعِقَابٍ فَيَدْعُونَهُ دُعَاءَ الْغَرِيقِ فَلَا يَسْتَجِيبُ لَهُمْ.
