Arabic hadith text

وَعَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا خَطَبَ احْمَرَّتْ عَيْنَاهُ وَعَلَا صَوْتُهُ وَاشْتَدَّ غَضَبُهُ حَتَّى كَأَنَّهُ مُنْذِرُ جَيش يقولك: «صَبَّحَكُمْ وَمَسَّاكُمْ» وَيَقُولُ: «بُعِثْتُ أَنَا وَالسَّاعَةُ كَهَاتَيْنِ» . وَيَقْرُنُ بَيْنَ إِصْبَعَيْهِ السَّبَابَةِ وَالْوُسْطَى. رَوَاهُ مُسْلِمٌ

Jabir reported that when the Messenger of God delivered a sermon, his eyes reddened, his voice rose, and his anger intensified, as though he were warning an army: The enemy will attack you in the morning and in the evening. He would say: My being sent and the Hour are like these two, and he joined his index and middle fingers. Muslim transmitted it.
