"إِنَّكُمْ سَتَرونَ بَعْدِى أثَرَةً فاصْبِرُوا حَتَّى تَلقَوْنِى عَلَى الحَوْضِ".
Command to show patience when rights are taken away during the time of severe trials
A man from the Ansar said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! Will you appoint me as you have appointed so-and-so?" The Prophet ﷺ said, "After me, you will see others given preference over you; so be patient till you meet me at the Ḥawḍ (the Basin) ˹on the Day of Resurrection˺.
أَنَّ رَجُلاً مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، أَلاَ تَسْتَعْمِلُنِي كَمَا اسْتَعْمَلْتَ فُلاَنًا؟ قَالَ: «سَتَلْقَوْنَ بَعْدِي أَثَرَةً فَاصْبِرُوا حَتَّى تَلْقَوْنِي عَلَى الْحَوْضِ۔»
The Prophet ﷺ said to the Ansar, "After me you will see others given preference to you; so be patient till you meet me, and your promised place (of meeting) will be the Tank (i.e. Lake of Kauthar).
قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لِلأَنْصَارِ إِنَّكُمْ سَتَلْقَوْنَ بَعْدِي أَثَرَةً فَاصْبِرُوا حَتَّى تَلْقَوْنِي وَمَوْعِدُكُمُ الْحَوْضُ
"A man from Ansar said, 'O Messenger of Allah! You appointed so-and-so and did not appoint me. So, the Prophet ﷺ said, 'After me you will see preferential treatment, so be patient till you meet me at Al-Hawd."'
يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ اسْتَعْمَلْتَ فُلاَنًا وَلَمْ تَسْتَعْمِلْنِي فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِنَّكُمْ سَتَرَوْنَ بَعْدِي أَثَرَةً فَاصْبِرُوا حَتَّى تَلْقَوْنِي عَلَى الْحَوْضِ
The Prophet ﷺ said to the Ansar, "After me you will see others given preference to you; so be patient till you meet me, and your promised place (of meeting) will be the Tank (i.e. Lake of Kauthar). (Using translation from Bukhārī 3793)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لِلْأَنْصَارِ إِنَّكُمْ سَتَلْقَوْنَ بَعْدِي أَثَرَةً فَاصْبِرُوا حَتَّى تَلْقَوْنِي فَمَوْعِدُكُمُ الْحَوْضُ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Indeed, you will see divisions after me." They asked, "What do you command us to do?" He said, "Be patient until you meet me at the pool."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «إِنَّكُمْ سَتَرَوْنَ بَعْدِي أَثَرَةً» قَالُوا فَمَا تَأْمُرُنَا؟ قَالَ «اصْبِرُوا حَتَّى تَلْقَوْنِي عَلَى الْحَوْضِ»
"إِنَّكُمْ سَتَلقَونَ بَعْدِى أثرةً ، فاصبروا حتى تلقونِى غدًا عَلى الحَوْضِ".
