"One day, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ led us in Salat Al-Asr while it was still daytime. Then he stood to give us a Khutbah. He did not leave anything that would happen until the Hour of Judgement except that he informed us about it. Whoever remembered it remembered it, and whoever forgot it forgot it. Among what he said was: 'Indeed the world is green and sweet, and indeed Allah has left you to remain to see how you behave. So beware of the world, and beware of the women.' And among what he said was: 'The awe(status) of people should not prevent a man from saying the truth when he knows it."'He(one of the narrators) said: "Abu Sa'eed wept, then he said: 'By Allah! We have seen things and we feared."' "And among what he said in it, was : 'Indeed, for every treacherous person there shall be a banner erected on The Day Of Resurrection in proportion to his treachery. And there is no treachery greater than the treachery of a leader to the masses' whose banner shall be positioned at his buttocks.' And among what we remember from that day is: 'Behold! Indeed the children of Adam were created in various classes. Among them is he who was born a believer, lives as a believer, and dies a believer. Among them, is he who was born a disbeliever, lives as a disbeliever, and dies a disbeliever. Among them, is he who was born a believer, lives as a believer, and dies a disbeliever. Among them, is he who was born a disbeliever, lives as a disbeliever, and dies a believer. Behold! Among them is the slow to get angry, the quick to calm. Among them is the quick anger and the quick to calm, so this is with that. Behold! Among them is the quick get angry and the slow to calm, and indeed the best of them is the slow to get angry and the quick to calm, and the worst of them is the quick get angry and the slow to calm. Behold! Among them is he who pays back well and collects well. Among them is he who is bad with paying back and good when collecting. Among them is he who pays back well and is bad with collecting, so this is with that. Behold! Among them is he who is bad with paying back and bad with collecting. Indeed the best of them is the one who is good in paying back and good in collecting. And the worst of them is the one who is bad with paying back and bad with collecting. Behold! Anger is an ember in the heart of the son of Adam, as you see it in the redness of his eyes and the bulge of his jugular veins. So whoever senses something from that, then let him cling to the ground."' He said: "So we began turning towards the sun to see if anything of it remained(meaning whether it has set or not). So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Behold! The world, in relation to what has passed of it, shall not remain except as what remains of this day of yours, in relation to what has passed of it."'

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed Asr prayer with us one day while the sun was still up, then he stood up and delivered a sermon until the sun set. He did not leave out anything that will occur until the Day of Judgment; he informed those who remembered and those who forgot, saying, "O people, indeed this world is green and sweet, and indeed Allah will replace you in it, so look at how you will act. So fear this world and fear women. Surely, every betrayer will have a banner on the Day of Judgment according to the extent of his betrayal. It will be raised at his side and with it, he will be judged. And there is no betrayer greater than a public ruler." Then he mentioned good manners and said, "A man can be quick-tempered and hasty in decisions, so this is his character. And a man can be patient in decision-making, so this is his character. The best of them are those who are patient in temperament and quick in decision-making, and the worst of them are those who are quick-tempered and slow in decision-making." He then said, "Indeed, anger is a fire in the heart of the son of Adam, have you not seen the reddening of his eyes and the trembling of his veins? So when one of you finds that, then let him sit down or, he said, let him lie down on the ground." He then mentioned desires and said, "A man can have good desires but poor judgment, so this is his character. And a man can have good judgment but poor desires, so this is his character. The best of them are those with good desires and good judgment, and the worst of them are those with poor desires and poor judgment." He then said in his narration, "And there is nothing better than a word of justice that is spoken in the presence of an oppressive ruler, so do not let the fear of people prevent any of you from speaking the truth when he sees it or witnesses it." Abu Sa'eed then wept and said, "By Allah, we were prevented from doing that." He said, "And indeed, you will complete seventy nations, you are the best and most honorable of them in the sight of Allah." Then the sun began to decline towards its setting, and he said, "Indeed, whatever is left from this world is equivalent to what has passed of your day."

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, prayed the Asr prayer with us, then he stood up as a preacher after Asr, until Maghrib (sunset) and explained to us what will happen until the Day of Judgment. He praised and glorified Allah, then he said, "After that, know that the world is sweet and green, and indeed Allah has made you successors in it. He watches how you act. So be cautious of the world and be cautious of women. Know that the children of Adam are created in various stages. Among them are those who are born as believers, live as believers, and die as believers. And among them are those who are born as disbelievers, live as disbelievers, and die as disbelievers. And among them are those who are born as believers, live as believers, and die as disbelievers. And among them are those who are born as disbelievers, live as disbelievers, and die as believers. Know that anger is a burning coal in the heart of Adam's son. Haven't you seen his eyes reddening and his veins swelling? So if any of you finds anything from that, let him restrain himself from taking revenge. The best of men are those who are slow to anger and quick to forgive, and the worst of men are those who are quick to anger and slow to forgive. When a man is good in judgment but poor in seeking, then let him rely on it. And when a man is poor in judgment but good in seeking, then let him rely on it. Know that no man's reputation should prevent him from speaking the truth when he knows it. Verily, every traitor will have a flag on the Day of Judgment according to the extent of his betrayal. And verily, the greatest betrayal is the betrayal of the general leader. Know that the traitor will have his flag at his place of betrayal. Verily, the best of jihad is a word of truth in the presence of an oppressive ruler." When it was close to Maghrib, he said, "Verily, what remains of the world is like what remains of this day of yours."  

صَلَّى بِنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ صَلَاةَ الْعَصْرِ ثُمَّ قَامَ خَطِيبًا بَعْدَ الْعَصْرِ إِلَى مَغْرِبَانِ الشَّمْسِ حَفِظَهَا مَنْ حَفِظَهَا وَنَسِيَهَا مَنْ نَسِيَهَا وَأَخْبَرَ فِيهَا بِمَا هُوَ كَائِنٌ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ فَحَمِدَ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ «أَمَا بَعْدُ فَإِنَّ الدُّنْيَا حُلْوَةٌ خَضِرَةٌ وَإِنَّ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى مُسْتَخْلِفُكُمْ فِيهَا فَنَاظِرٌ كَيْفَ تَعْمَلُونَ أَلَا فَاتَّقُوا الدُّنْيَا وَاتَّقُوا النِّسَاءَ أَلَا إِنَّ بَنِي آدَمَ خُلِقُوا عَلَى طَبَقَاتٍ شَتَّى فَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ يُولَدُ مُؤْمِنًا وَيَحْيَى مُؤْمِنًا وَيَمُوتُ مُؤْمِنًا وَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ يُولَدُ كَافِرًا وَيَحْيَى كَافِرًا وَيَمُوتُ كَافِرًا وَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ يُولَدُ مُؤْمِنًا وَيَحْيَى مُؤْمِنًا وَيَمُوتُ كَافِرًا وَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ يُولَدُ كَافِرًا وَيَحْيَى كَافِرًا وَيَمُوتُ مُؤْمِنًا أَلَا إِنَّ الْغَضَبَ جَمْرَةٌ تُوقَدُ فِي جَوْفِ ابْنِ آدَمَ أَلَمْ تَرَوْا إِلَى حُمْرَةِ عَيْنَيْهِ وَانْتِفَاخِ أَوْدَاجِهِ فَإِذَا وَجَدَ أَحَدُكُمْ مِنْ ذَلِكَ شَيْئًا فَلْيَلْزِقْ بِالْأَرْضِ أَلَا إِنَّ خَيْرَ الرِّجَالِ مَنْ كَانَ بَطِيءَ الْغَضَبِ سَرِيعَ الْفَيْءِ وَشَرَّ الرِّجَالِ مَنْ كَانَ سَرِيعَ الْغَضَبِ بَطِيءَ الْفَيْءِ فَإِذَا كَانَ الرَّجُلُ سَرِيعَ الْغَضَبِ سَرِيعَ الْفَيْءِ فَإِنَّهَا بِهَا وَإِذَا كَانَ الرَّجُلُ بَطِيءَ الْغَضَبِ بَطِيءَ الْفَيْءِ فَإِنَّهَا بِهَا أَلَا إِنَّ خَيْرَ التُّجَّارِ مَنْ كَانَ حَسَنَ الْقَضَاءِ حَسَنَ الطَّلَبِ وَشَرَّ التُّجَّارِ مَنْ كَانَ سَيِّءَ الْقَضَاءِ سَيِّءَ الطَّلَبِ فَإِذَا كَانَ الرَّجُلُ حَسَنَ الْقَضَاءِ سَيِّءَ الطَّلَبِ فَإِنَّهَا بِهَا وَإِذَا كَانَ الرَّجُلُ سَيِّءَ الْقَضَاءِ حَسَنَ الطَّلَبِ فَإِنَّهَا بِهَا أَلَا لَا يَمْنَعَنَّ رَجُلًا مَهَابَةُ النَّاسِ أَنْ يَقُولَ بِالْحَقِّ إِذَا عَلِمَهُ أَلَا إِنَّ لِكُلِّ غَادِرٍ لِوَاءٌ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ بِقَدْرِ غَدْرَتِهِ أَلَا وَإِنَّ أَكْبَرَ الْغَدْرِ غَدَرُ إِمَامِ عَامَّةٍ أَلَا وَإِنَّ الْغَادِرَ لِوَاؤُهُ عِنْدَ اسْتِهِ أَلَا وَإِنَّ أَفْضَلَ الْجِهَادِ كَلِمَةُ حَقٍّ عِنْدَ سُلْطَانٍ جَائِرٍ» فَلَمَّا كَانَ عِنْدَ مَغْرِبَانِ الشَّمْسِ قَالَ «إِنَّ مَثَلَ مَا بَقِيَ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا فِيمَا مَضَى مِنْهَا كَمَثَلِ مَا بَقِيَ مِنْ يَوْمِكُمْ هَذَا فِيمَا مَضَى»
