Hadith text · Matn
مَا مِنْ نَفْسٍ مَنْفُوسَةٍ الْيَوْمَ تَأْتِي عَلَيْهَا مِائَةُ سَنَةٍ وَهْىَ حَيَّةٌ يَوْمَئِذٍ
. وَعَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، صَاحِبِ السِّقَايَةِ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِمِثْلِ ذَلِكَ وَفَسَّرَهَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ نَقْصُ الْعُمُرِ .
English translation
Jabir b. 'Abdullah reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying one mouth before his death (or something like it):
None amongst the created beings who had been living by that time (during the lifetime of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) ).... 'Abd al-Rahman has interpreted these words of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as: The ages (of the people) would be diminished.
