Hadith #338
Arabic Text
قَالَ وَسَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ سَيَخْرُجُ أُنَاسٌ مِنْ أُمَّتِي مِنْ قِبَلِ الْمَشْرِقِ يَقْرَءُونَ الْقُرْآنَ لَا يُجَاوِزُ تَرَاقِيَهُمْ كُلَّمَا خَرَجَ مِنْهُمْ قَرْنٌ قُطِعَ كُلَّمَا خَرَجَ مِنْهُمْ قَرْنٌ قُطِعَ حَتَّى عَدَّهَا زِيَادَةً عَلَى عَشْرَةِ مَرَّاتٍ كُلَّمَا خَرَجَ مِنْهُمْ قَرْنٌ قُطِعَ حَتَّى يَخْرُجَ الدَّجَّالُ فِي بَقِيَّتِهِمْ
English Translation
It was narrated from 'Abdullah ibn 'Amr (رضي الله عنهما) that he said: 'And I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: "There will emerge from my ummah people from the direction of the east who recite the Quran but it does not pass beyond their collarbones. Every time a generation of them is cut off, another generation emerges" — and he counted this more than ten times — "every time a generation of them is cut off, another emerges — until the Dajjal emerges among their remnants."'
