Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ عَنْ سِمَاكٍ عَنْ ثَرْوَانَ بْنِ مِلْحَانَ قَالَ كُنَّا جُلُوسًا فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَمَرَّ عَلَيْنَا عَمَّارُ بْنُ يَاسِرٍ فَقُلْنَا لَهُ حَدِّثْنَا مَا سَمِعْتَ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ فِي الْفِتْنَةِ فَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ يَكُونُ بَعْدِي قَوْمٌ يَأْخُذُونَ الْمُلْكَ يَقْتُلُ عَلَيْهِ بَعْضُهُمْ بَعْضًا قَالَ قُلْنَا لَهُ لَوْ حَدَّثَنَا غَيْرُكَ مَا صَدَّقْنَاهُ قَالَ فَإِنَّهُ سَيَكُونُ.
English Translation
Muhammad ibn Abdullah ibn al-Zubayr narrated to us: Isra'il narrated to us, from Simak, from Tharwan ibn Milhan, who said: We were sitting in the mosque when Ammar ibn Yasir passed by us, and we said to him: Tell us what you heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say concerning tribulation. He said: I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say: After me there will come a people who will seize power, some of them killing others over it. We said to him: Had anyone other than you told us this, we would not have believed it. He said: But it will indeed happen.
