Will there be evil after this good?” He said, “Yes.” I asked, “Will there be good after that evil?” He said, “Yes.” I asked, “Will there be evil after that good?” He said, “Yes.” I asked, “How?” He said: “After me there will be leaders who do not follow my guidance or adopt my way. Among them will arise men with the hearts of devils in human bodies.” I asked, “What should I do, Messenger of Allah, if I live to see that?” He replied: “Listen to the commander and obey, even if your back is beaten and your property is taken. Listen and obey.”
