Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْمُنْذِرِ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ فُضَيْلٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَالِكٍ الأَشْجَعِيُّ، عَنْ رِبْعِيِّ بْنِ حِرَاشٍ، عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ، وَعَنْ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ ‏ "‏ أَضَلَّ اللَّهُ عَنِ الْجُمُعَةِ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَنَا. كَانَ لِلْيَهُودِ يَوْمُ السَّبْتِ. وَالأَحَدُ لِلنَّصَارَى. فَهُمْ لَنَا تَبَعٌ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ. نَحْنُ الآخِرُونَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الدُّنْيَا، وَالأَوَّلُونَ الْمَقْضِيُّ لَهُمْ قَبْلَ الْخَلاَئِقِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Translation

Ali ibn al-Mundhir narrated to us: Ibn Fudayl narrated to us: Abu Malik al-Ashjai narrated to us, from Ribi ibn Hirash, from Hudhayfah; and from Abu Hazim, from Abu Hurayrah, who said: The Messenger of Allah said: “Allah turned those who came before us away from Friday. The Jews had Saturday, and the Christians had Sunday. Then they followed us, until the Day of Resurrection. We are the last of the people of this world, and the first for whom judgment will be passed before all creatures.”
