Arabic hadith text
حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ دُكَيْنٍ، حَدَّثَنَا فِطْرٌ، عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ أَبِي بَزَّةَ، عَنْ أَبِي الطُّفَيْلِ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ، - رضى الله تعالى عنه - عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " لَوْ لَمْ يَبْقَ مِنَ الدَّهْرِ إِلاَّ يَوْمٌ لَبَعَثَ اللَّهُ رَجُلاً مِنْ أَهْلِ بَيْتِي يَمْلأُهَا عَدْلاً كَمَا مُلِئَتْ جَوْرًا " .
Translation
Uthman ibn Abi Shaybah narrated to us: al-Fadl ibn Dukayn narrated to us: Fitr narrated to us, from al-Qasim ibn Abi Bazzah, from Abu al-Tufayl, from Ali, may God be pleased with him, from the Prophet ﷺ, who said: “If only one day of time remained, God would raise a man from my household who would fill it with justice as it was filled with oppression.”
