" 'Umar delivered a Khutbah to us at Al-Jabiyah. He said: 'O you people! Indeed I have stood among you as the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood among us, and he said: "I order you (to stick to) my Companions, then those who come after them, then those who come after them. Then lying will spread until a man will take an oath when no oath was sought from him, and a witness will testify when his testimony was not sought. Behold! A man is not alone with a woman but the third of them is Ash-Shaitan. Adhere to the Jama'ah, beware of separation, for indeed Ash-Shaitan is with one, and he is further away from two. Whoever wants the best place in Paradise, then let him stick to the Jama'ah. Whoever rejoices with his good deeds and grieves over his evil deeds, then that is the believer among you.'"  

يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنِّي قُمْتُ فِيكُمْ كَمَقَامِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِينَا فَقَالَ أُوصِيكُمْ بِأَصْحَابِي ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ ثُمَّ يَفْشُو الْكَذِبُ حَتَّى يَحْلِفَ الرَّجُلُ وَلاَ يُسْتَحْلَفُ وَيَشْهَدَ الشَّاهِدُ وَلاَ يُسْتَشْهَدُ أَلاَ لاَ يَخْلُوَنَّ رَجُلٌ بِامْرَأَةٍ إِلاَّ كَانَ ثَالِثَهُمَا الشَّيْطَانُ عَلَيْكُمْ بِالْجَمَاعَةِ وَإِيَّاكُمْ وَالْفُرْقَةَ فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ مَعَ الْوَاحِدِ وَهُوَ مِنَ الاِثْنَيْنِ أَبْعَدُ مَنْ أَرَادَ بُحْبُوحَةَ الْجَنَّةِ فَلْيَلْزَمِ الْجَمَاعَةَ مَنْ سَرَّتْهُ حَسَنَتُهُ وَسَاءَتْهُ سَيِّئَتُهُ فَذَلِكَ الْمُؤْمِنُ  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood before us as I am standing before you, and said: ʿI urge you to show respect to my Companions, then those who come after them, then those who come after them, then lying will become so widespread that a man will start to give testimony before he is asked to do so.Whoever among you wants to attain a spacious abode in Paradise, let him adhere to the jama'ah (main body of Muslims), for the Shaitan is with the one who is alone, but he is further away from two. And no one of you should be alone with a woman for the Shaitan will be the third one present. The one who is pleased with his good deeds and upset by his bad deeds is a believer.ʿ

[Machine] He heard my article and paid attention to it. I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ standing among us as I am standing among you now. Then he said, "Preserve me among my companions, then among those who follow them, then among those who follow them." "Then there will be a lot of noise, falsehood will appear, a man will give testimony without being asked, and will swear without being asked to swear. Whoever loves someone for the sake of Paradise, let them stick to the congregation, as the devil is with the individual, but he is farther away from two. Beware! No man should be alone with a woman, as the devil will be the third of them. Whoever is pleased with his good deed and displeased with his evil deed, then he is a believer." This is the second Hadith in which scholars use it as evidence that consensus is a proof. It is a disputed Hadith different from Ma'tamir ibn Sulayman in seven aspects. The first aspect is this, and it is authentic.

Then falsehood will appear until a person bears witness without being asked to bear witness, and a person swears an oath without being asked to swear an oath. So whoever among you loves to be granted a home in Paradise, let him adhere to the congregation, for indeed Satan is with the individual, and he is farther away from two. And a man should not be alone with a woman, for indeed their third is Satan. And the one whose good deeds bring happiness to him and whose bad deeds bring him sadness is a believer."

And let no man be alone with a woman who is not lawful for him, for indeed, Satan is the third among them."

إِنِّي قُمْتُ فِيكُمْ كَمَقَامِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِينَا فَقَالَ «أُوصِيكُمْ بِأَصْحَابِي ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ ثُمَّ يَفْشُو الْكَذِبُ حَتَّى يَحْلِفَ الرَّجُلُ وَلَا يُسْتَحْلَفُ وَحَتَّى يَشْهَدَ وَلَا يُسْتَشْهَدُ عَلَيْكُمْ بِالْجَمَاعَةِ وَإِيَّاكُمْ وَالْفُرْقَةَ فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ مَعَ الْوَاحِدِ وَهُوَ مِنَ الِاثْنَيْنِ أَبَعْدُ لَا يَخْلُوَنَّ رَجُلٌ بِامْرَأَةٍ ثَلَاثَ مِرَارٍ إِلَّا كَانَ ثَالِثَهُمَا شَيْطَانٌ مَنْ أَرَادَ بُحْبُوحَةَ الْجَنَّةِ فَلْيَلْزَمِ الْجَمَاعَةَ مَنْ سَرَّتَهُ حَسَنَتْهُ وَسَاءَتْهُ سَيِّئَتُهُ فَذَلِكَ الْمُؤْمِنُ»  

[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, "Protect me among my companions, then those who come after them three times, then a people will come who will testify without being asked to testify and swear without being asked to swear. So whoever loves Paradise, then let him adhere to the community, for indeed, Shaytan is closer to a person when he is alone, and farther away when there are two people. And no man should be alone with a woman, except with a Mahram. And whoever is pleased with his good deeds and displeased with his bad deeds, then he is a believer."  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «احْفَظُونِي فِي أَصْحَابِي ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ ثُمَّ يَأْتِي قَوْمٌ مِنْ بَعْدِ ذَلِكَ يَشْهَدُونَ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يُسْتَشْهَدُوا وَيَحْلِفُونَ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يُسْتَحْلَفُوا فَمَنْ أَحَبَّ الْجَنَّةَ فَعَلَيْهِ بِالْجَمَاعَةِ فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ مِنَ الْوَاحِدِ قَرِيبٌ وَمِنَ الِاثْنَيْنِ أَبَعْدُ وَلَا يَخْلُوَنَّ رَجُلٌ بِامْرَأَةٍ إِلَّا مَعَ ذِي مَحْرَمٍ وَمَنْ سَرَّتْهُ حَسَنَتُهُ وَسَاءَتْهُ سَيِّئَتُهُ فَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ»  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood before us as I am standing before you, and said: ʿI urge you to show respect to my Companions, then those who come after them, then those who come after them, then lying will become so widespread that a man will start to give testimony before he is asked to do so.Whoever among you wants to attain a spacious abode in Paradise, let him adhere to the jama'ah (main body of Muslims), for the Shaitan is with the one who is alone, but he is further away from two. And no one of you should be alone with a woman for the Shaitan will be the third one present. The one who is pleased with his good deeds and upset by his bad deeds is a believer.ʿ (Using translation from Aḥmad 114)   

فَقَامَ فِينَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَقَامِي فِيكُمْ فَقَالَ اسْتَوْصُوا بِأَصْحَابِي خَيْرًا ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ ثُمَّ يَفْشُو الْكَذِبُ حَتَّى إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَيَبْتَدِئُ بِالشَّهَادَةِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُسْأَلَهَا وَبِالْيَمِينِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُسْأَلَهَا فَمَنْ أَرَادَ مِنْكُمْ بَحْبَحَةَ الْجَنَّةِ فَلْيَلْزَمِ الْجَمَاعَةَ فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ مَعَ الْوَاحِدِ وَهُوَ مِنَ الِاثْنَيْنِ أَبْعَدُ وَلَا يَخْلُوَنَّ أَحَدُكُمْ بِامْرَأَةٍ فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ ثَالِثُهُمَا وَمَنْ سَرَّتْهُ حَسَنَتُهُ وَسَاءَتْهُ سَيِّئَتُهُ فَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ وَاللهُ سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى أَعْلَمُ  

"أُوصِيكُمْ بأصْحَابِى خَيْرًا، ثُمَّ الذِينَ يَلُونهم، ثُمَّ الذين يَلُونَهُم، ثُمَّ يَفْشُوا الكذِبُ، حتى يَحْلِفَ الرَّجُلُ وَلَا يُسْتَحَلَفُ، وَيَشْهَدُ الشاهد وَلَا يُسْتَشْهَدُ، ألَا لا يَخْلُوَنَّ رَجُلٌ بامْرَأة إِلَّا كانَ ثَالِثهما الشيْطَانُ، عَلَيْكمْ بالْجَمَاعة، وَإيَّاكُمْ والفُرْقَةَ، فَإِن الشَّيْطَان مَعَ الوَاحدِ، وَهُوَ مِنَ الاثْنِيْن أْبعَدُ، من أرَادَ بُحْبُوحةَ الجَنَّةِ فَليَلزَم الجَمَاعة، مَنْ سَرَّتْهُ حَسَنتُهُ وسَاءَتْهُ سيِّئُتُهُ فذلكم المؤمن ".  

"عَنْ زاذان قال: قدم علينا عمر بن الخطاب بالجابية على بعير مقتب عليه عباءة قطوانية وبيده عَنْزَةٌ فقال: (*) أيها الناس عليكم بأصحابى ثم الذين يلونهم، ثم

الذين يلونهم، ثلاثة قرون، ثم يجئ قوم لا خير فيهم؛ يشهدون ولا يتشهدون، ويحلفون ولا يستحلفون، من سره أن ينزل بحبوحة الجنة فعليه بالجماعة، ألا إن الواحد شيطان، وهو من الاثنين أبعد ألا ومن ساءته سيئته وسرته حسنته فهو مؤمن".
