Hadith #283
Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ
عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَا فَرَطُكُمْ عَلَى الْحَوْضِ وَلَيُخْتَلَجَنَّ رِجَالٌ دُونِي فَأَقُولُ يَا رَبِّ أَصْحَابِي فَيُقَالُ إِنَّكَ لَا تَدْرِي مَا أَحْدَثُوا بَعْدَكَ
English Translation
It was narrated from 'Abdullah ibn Mas'ud (رضي الله عنه) — via 'Abdullah ibn al-Walid, from Sufyan, from al-A'mash, from Abu Wa'il — that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'I will be your forerunner at the Hawd [Pool]. Some men will be pulled away [from it] before reaching me, and I will say: O Lord, my companions! And it will be said: You do not know what they innovated after you.'
