وَحَدَّثَنِيهِ زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، وَيَعْقُوبُ الدَّوْرَقِيُّ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، وَهُوَ ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ ‏"‏ لاَ يَزَالُ النَّاسُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ بِمِثْلِ حَدِيثِ عَبْدِ الْوَارِثِ غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَذْكُرِ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي الإِسْنَادِ وَلَكِنْ قَدْ قَالَ فِي آخِرِ الْحَدِيثِ صَدَقَ اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ ‏.‏

Translation

Zuhayr ibn Harb and Ya'qub al-Dawraqi narrated this to me. They said: Isma'il—meaning Ibn 'Ulayya—narrated to us, from Ayyub, from Muhammad, who said Abu Hurayra said: People will keep asking … [the rest is] like the hadith of 'Abd al-Warith, except that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is not mentioned in the chain; at the end of the hadith, however, he said: Allah and His Messenger have spoken the truth.

Translation notes

  • The source itself abbreviates the repeated report after “People will keep asking”; the ellipsis marks that omission.
