[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "O Abu Dharr, what will you do when people are hungry to the point where you cannot make it from your mosque to your bed, or from your bed to your mosque?" Abu Dharr replied, "Allah and His Messenger know best." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Fast." Then he asked, "What will you do when people die, to the point where your house is full of guests?" Abu Dharr responded, "Allah and His Messenger know best." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Be patient." Then he asked, "What will you do when people come, to the point where the noble ones are covered in blood?" Abu Dharr answered, "Allah and His Messenger know best." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Join whoever you are with." Abu Dharr asked, "What if they come after me?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "If you fear that the rays of the sword will dazzle you, then throw a piece of your garment on your face. It will bear the sin of both you and him, and you will be among the people of Hellfire." Abu Dharr asked, "Should I not carry a weapon?" The Prophet ﷺ said, "Then you will be part of it."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «يَا أَبَا ذَرٍّ كَيْفَ تَصْنَعُ إِذَا جَاعَ النَّاسُ حَتَّى لَا تَسْتَطِيعَ أَنْ تَقُومَ مِنْ مَسْجِدِكَ إِلَى فِرَاشِكَ وَلَا مِنْ فِرَاشِكَ إِلَى مَسْجِدِكَ؟» قَالَ قُلْتُ اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ قَالَ «تَعِفُّ» ثُمَّ قَالَ «كَيْفَ تَصْنَعُ إِذَا مَاتَ النَّاسُ حَتَّى يَكُونَ الْبَيْتُ بِالْوَضِيفِ؟» قَالَ قُلْتُ اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ قَالَ «تَصْبِرُ» ثُمَّ قَالَ «كَيْفَ تَصْنَعُ إِذَا أَقْبَلَ النَّاسُ حَتَّى يَغْزُوَ أَصْحَابُ الرُّتَبِ بِالدِّمَاءِ؟» قَالَ قُلْتُ اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ قَالَ «تَأْتِي مَنْ أَنْتَ مِنْهُ» قُلْتُ فَإِنْ أُتِيَ عَلَيَّ؟ قَالَ «إِنْ خِفْتَ أَنْ يَبْهَرَكَ شُعَاعُ السَّيْفِ فَأَلْقِ طَائِفَةً مِنْ رِدَائِكَ عَلَى وَجْهِكَ يَبُوءُ بِإِثْمِكَ وَإِثْمِهِ فَيَكُونُ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّارِ» قُلْتُ أَفَلَا أَحْمِلُ السِّلَاحَ؟ قَالَ «إِذًا تُشَارِكُهُ»
