[Machine] Hudhaifah, but I swear to Allah, I knew that we would return in defeat and we would not shed blood in it, and I did not know anything about it except what I knew. Muhammad ﷺ said, "A man may be a believer in the morning and a disbeliever in the evening, or he may be a believer in the evening and a disbeliever in the morning, and he may be fighting in the tribulation of the day and Allah Almighty will kill him tomorrow, his heart will change and he will be elevated." I said, "The lowest?" He said, "Yes, the lowest."  

حُذَيْفَةُ لَكِنِّي وَاللَّهِ عَلِمْتُ أَنَّا سَنَرْجِعُ عَلَى عَقِبِنَا وَلَمْ نُهْرِقْ فِيهَا مِحْجَمَةَ دَمٍ وَمَا عَلِمْتُ مِنْ ذَاكَ شَيْئًا إِلَّا شَيْءٌ عَلِمْتُهُ وَمُحَمَّدٌ ﷺ حَيٌّ «أَنَّ الرَّجُلَ يُصْبِحُ مُؤْمِنًا وَيُمْسِي كَافِرًا مَا مَعَهُ مِنْ دِينِهِ شَيْءٌ وَيُمْسِي مُؤْمِنًا وَيُصْبِحُ كَافِرًا وَمَا مَعَهُ مِنْ دِينِهِ شَيْءٌ يُقَاتِلُ فِي فِتْنَةِ الْيَوْمِ وَيَقْتُلُهُ اللَّهُ ﷻ غَدًا يَنْكُسُ قَلْبُهُ وَتَعْلُوهُ اسْتُهُ» قُلْتُ أَسْفَلُهُ؟ قَالَ اسْتُهُ  

[Machine] "That these people return and no bloodshed occurs in it, and I did not know anything about it except for what I have informed and Muhammad, peace be upon him, is alive. He said, 'A person may become a believer in the morning and turn into a disbeliever in the evening, or he may become a disbeliever in the evening and turn into a believer in the morning. He may fight in the morning while having nothing with him, but in the evening, Allah will cause him to be killed. His heart will turn upside down and he will raise his voice.' I said, 'The lowest of it?' He replied, 'Rather, the highest of it.'"  

أَنْ يَرْجِعَ هَؤُلَاءِ وَلَمْ يُهْرَقْ فِيهَا مِحْجَمَةٌ مِنْ دَمٍ وَمَا عَلِمْتُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ شَيْئًا إِلَّا شَيْئًا عَلِمْتُهُ وَمُحَمَّدٌ ﷺ حَيٌّ «أَنَّ الرَّجُلَ يُصْبِحُ مُؤْمِنًا وَيُمْسِي وَمَا مَعَهُ شَيْءٌ وَيُمْسِي مُؤْمِنًا وَيُصْبِحُ وَمَا مَعَهُ شَيْءٌ يُقَاتِلُ فِي الْفِتْنَةِ الْيَوْمَ وَيَقْتُلُهُ اللَّهُ غَدًا يَنْكُسُ قَلْبُهُ وَتَعْلُوهُ اسْتُهُ» قُلْتُ أَسْفَلُهُ قَالَ بَلْ اسْتُهُ  

[Machine] I went with Hudhayfah and Abu Mas'ud to the mosque and Abu Mas'ud said, "By Allah, I did not see any shoes greater than these that had not been worn with gore, nor had blood been shed upon them." Hudhayfah said: "But I knew that the shoes would increase, yet no gore would be shed upon them. Indeed, a person may wake up as a believer and by nightfall be a disbeliever, or he may be a disbeliever in the morning and become a believer by evening. Sometimes his heart turns upside down due to this. He battles against tribulations today, but tomorrow Allah kills him." Then Abu Mas'ud said, "This is what the Messenger of Allah ﷺ informed us about tribulations."  

دُفِعْتُ إِلَى حُذَيْفَةَ وَأَبِي مَسْعُودٍ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ وَأَبُو مَسْعُودٍ يَقُولُ وَاللهِ مَا كُنْتُ أَرَى أنْ تَزِيدَ عَلَى عَقِبَيْهَا وَلَمْ تُهْرَقْ فِيهَا مِحْجَمَةٌ مِنْ دَمٍ فَقَالَ حُذَيْفَةُ «وَلَكِنْ قَدْ عَلِمْتُ أَنَّهَا سَتَزِيدُ عَلَى عَقِبَيْهَا وَلَمْ تُهْرَقْ فِيهَا مِحْجَمَةٌ إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَيُصْبِحُ مُؤْمِنًا وَيُمْسِي كَافِرًا وَيُمْسِي مُؤْمِنًا وَيُصْبِحُ كَافِرًا فَيُنَكَّسُ قَلْبُهُ فَتَعْلُوهُ اسْتُهُ يُقَاتِلُ الْفِتْنَةَ الْيَوْمَ وَيَقْتُلُهُ اللهُ غَدًا» فَقَالَ أَبُو مَسْعُودٍ «هَكَذَا حَدَّثَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَنِ الْفِتْنَةِ»
