We said to 'Ammar: Was your fighting (on the side of 'Ali in the Battle of Siffin) a matter of your own choice or you got its hints from Messenger of Allah ( ﷺ) for it, is likely for one to err in one's own discretion or was it because of any covenant that Messenger of Allah ( ﷺ) got from you? He said: It was not because of any covenant that Messenger of Allah ( ﷺ) got from us which he did get from other people, and he further said that Messenger of Allah ( ﷺ) said:" In my Ummah." And I think that Hudhaifa reported to me and according to Ghundar (the words are) that he said: In my Ummah, there would be twelve hypocrites and they would not be admitted to Paradise and they would not smell its odour, until the camel would pass through a needle's hole. Dubaila (ulcer) would be enough to (torment them) -a kind of flame of Fire which would appear in their shoulders and it would protrude from their chest.

قُلْنَا لِعَمَّارٍ أَرَأَيْتَ قِتَالَكُمْ أَرَأْيًا رَأَيْتُمُوهُ فَإِنَّ الرَّأْىَ يُخْطِئُ وَيُصِيبُ أَوْ عَهْدًا عَهِدَهُ إِلَيْكُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ مَا عَهِدَ إِلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ شَيْئًا لَمْ يَعْهَدْهُ إِلَى النَّاسِ كَافَّةً وَقَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ فِي أُمَّتِي قَالَ شُعْبَةُ وَأَحْسِبُهُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي حُذَيْفَةُ وَقَالَ غُنْدَرٌ أُرَاهُ قَالَ فِي أُمَّتِي اثْنَا عَشَرَ مُنَافِقًا لاَ يَدْخُلُونَ الْجَنَّةَ وَلاَ يَجِدُونَ رِيحَهَا حَتَّى يَلِجَ الْجَمَلُ فِي سَمِّ الْخِيَاطِ ثَمَانِيَةٌ مِنْهُمْ تَكْفِيكَهُمُ الدُّبَيْلَةُ سِرَاجٌ مِنَ النَّارِ يَظْهَرُ فِي أَكْتَافِهِمْ حَتَّى يَنْجُمَ مِنْ صُدُورِهِمْ

[AI] He said: I said to Ammar, "Do you think your fighting was an opinion you formed?" Hajjaj said: "Do you think this matter" meaning their fighting "was an opinion you formed? For opinion can be mistaken and can be correct. Or was it a covenant that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ made with you?" He said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not make any special covenant with us that he did not make with all people." And he said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Indeed, in my nation..."" Shu'bah said, "And I think he said: Hudhayfah narrated to me:" "Indeed, in my nation are twelve hypocrites. They will not enter Paradise, nor will they smell its fragrance, until a camel passes through the eye of a needle. Eight of them, the dubaylah will suffice against them: a lamp of fire that appears in their shoulders until it emerges in their chests."

قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِعَمَّارٍ: أَرَأَيْتَ قِتَالَكُمْ، رَأْيًا رَأَيْتُمُوهُ؟ قَالَ حَجَّاجٌ: أَرَأَيْتَ هَذَا الْأَمْرَ، يَعْنِي قِتَالَهُمْ، رَأْيًا رَأَيْتُمُوهُ؟ فَإِنَّ الرَّأْيَ يُخْطِئُ وَيُصِيبُ، أَوْ عَهْدًا عَهِدَهُ إِلَيْكُمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ؟ فَقَالَ: مَا عَهِدَإِلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ شَيْئًا لَمْ يَعْهَدْهُ إِلَى النَّاسِ كَافَّةً. وَقَالَ: إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ: «إِنَّ فِي أُمَّتِي». قَالَ شُعْبَةُ: وَأَحْسِبُهُ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي حُذَيْفَةُ: «إِنَّ فِي أُمَّتِي اثْنَيْ عَشَرَ مُنَافِقًا، لَا يَدْخُلُونَ الْجَنَّةَ، وَلَا يَجِدُونَ رِيحَهَا، حَتَّى ﴿يَلِجَ الْجَمَلُ فِي سَمِّ الْخِيَاطِ﴾، ثَمَانِيَةٌ مِنْهُمْ تَكْفِيكَهُمُ الدُّبَيْلَةُ، سِرَاجٌ مِنْ نَارٍ يَظْهَرُ فِي أَكْتَافِهِمْ حَتَّى يَنْجُمَ فِي صُدُورِهِمْ».

[Machine] I said to 'Ammaar, "Have you seen what you have done in the matter of 'Ali? Did you see any trust that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ entrusted to you or something he mentioned concerning you?" He said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not entrust us with anything that he did not entrust to all the people. However, Hudhayfah told me about the Prophet ﷺ saying, 'There are twelve hypocrites among my companions, eight of whom will not enter Paradise until a camel passes through the eye of a needle. Eight of them will be saved by the dung, and four I do not remember what Shu'bah said about them."

قُلْتُ لِعَمَّارٍ أَرَأَيْتُمْ صُنْعَكُمْ هَذَا الَّذِي صَنَعْتُمْ فِي أَمْرِ عَلِيٍّ أَرَأْيًا رَأَيْتُمُوهُ أَوْ شَيْئًا عَهِدَهُ إِلَيْكُمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ؟ فَقَالَ مَا عَهِدَ إِلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ شَيْئًا لَمْ يَعْهَدْهُ إِلَى النَّاسِ كَافَّةً وَلَكِنَّ حُذَيْفَةَ أَخْبَرَنِي عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فِي أَصْحَابِي اثْنَا عَشَرَ مُنَافِقًا مِنْهُمْ ثَمَانِيَةٌ لَا يَدْخُلُونَ الْجَنَّةَ حَتَّى يَلِجَ الْجَمَلُ فِي سَمِّ الْخِيَاطِ ثَمَانِيَةٌ مِنْهُمْ تَكْفِيهُمُ الدُّبَيْلَةُ وَأَرْبَعَةٌ لَمْ أَحْفَظْ مَا قَالَ شُعْبَةُ فِيهِمْ
