[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»
