[Machine] I heard the messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, recite this verse: "Then there succeeded them a posterity who neglected prayers and followed after lusts. Soon, they will face ruin." (Al-A'raf 169). He, peace be upon him, then said, "After sixty years, there will be a generation who neglect prayer and indulge in desires. They will face misguidance. Then, there will be a generation who will recite the Quran, but their recitation will not go beyond their throats. There will be three types of individuals who recite the Quran: a believer, a hypocrite, and a wicked person." Bashir asked, "What are these three types?" The messenger of Allah replied, "The hypocrite is a disbeliever, the wicked person uses it for his own benefit, and the believer lives by it."
سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَتَلَا هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ {فَخَلَفَ مِنْ بَعْدِهِمْ خَلْفٌ} [الأعراف 169] فَقَالَ ﷺ «يَكُونُ خَلْفٌ مِنْ بَعْدِ سِتِّينَ سَنَةً أَضَاعُوا الصَّلَاةَ وَاتَّبَعُوا الشَّهَوَاتِ فَسَوْفَ يَلْقَوْنَ غَيًّا ثُمَّ يَكُونُ خَلْفٌ يَقْرَءُونَ الْقُرْآنَ لَا يَعْدُو تَرَاقِيَهُمْ وَيَقْرَأُ الْقُرْآنَ ثَلَاثَةٌ مُؤْمِنٌ وَمُنَافِقٌ وَفَاجِرٌ» قَالَ بَشِيرٌ فَقُلْتُ لِلْوَلِيدِ مَا هَؤُلَاءِ الثَّلَاثَةُ؟ فَقَالَ الْمُنَافِقُ كَافِرٌ وَالْفَاجِرُ يَتَأَكَّلُ بِهِ وَالْمُؤْمِنُ يُؤْمِنُ بِهِ
