Arabic (Original)
و قَالَ أَبُو حَازِمٍ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ أَبُو ضَمْرَةَ لَا أَعْلَمُهُ إِلَّا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ قَالَ مَثَلِي وَمَثَلُ السَّاعَةِ كَهَاتَيْنِ وَفَرَّقَ بَيْنَ أُصْبُعَيْهِ الْوُسْطَى وَالَّتِي تَلِي الْإِبْهَامَ ثُمَّ قَالَ مَثَلِي وَمَثَلُ السَّاعَةِ كَمَثَلِ فَرَسَيْ رِهَانٍ ثُمَّ قَالَ مَثَلِي وَمَثَلُ السَّاعَةِ كَمَثَلِ رَجُلٍ بَعَثَهُ قَوْمُهُ طَلِيعَةً فَلَمَّا خَشِيَ أَنْ يُسْبَقَ أَلَاحَ بِثَوْبِهِ أُتِيتُمْ أُتِيتُمْ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَا ذَلِكَ.
English Translation
And Abu Hazim said: The Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him, said — Abu Damrah said: I do not know it except from Sahl ibn Sa'd — he said: My likeness and the likeness of the Hour are like these two, and he separated his middle finger and the one next to the thumb. Then he said: My likeness and the likeness of the Hour are like two race-horses. Then he said: My likeness and the likeness of the Hour are like a man sent by his people as a scout; when he feared he would be overtaken, he waved his garment, crying: You have been reached, you have been reached! Then the Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him, would say: I am that one.
