Hadith text

Narrated Abu Wail from Hudhaifa:`Umar asked the people, "Who remembers the narration of the Prophet (ﷺ) about the affliction?" Hudhaifa said, "I heard the Prophet (ﷺ) saying, 'The affliction of a person in his property, family and neighbors is expiated by his prayers, fasting, and giving in charity." `Umar said, "I do not ask about that, but I ask about those afflictions which will spread like the waves of the sea." Hudhaifa replied, "There is a closed gate in front of those afflictions." `Umar asked, "Will that gate be opened or broken?" He replied, "It will be broken." `Umar said, "Then the gate will not be closed again till the Day of Resurrection." We said to Masruq, "Would you ask Hudhaifa whether `Umar knew what that gate symbolized?" He asked him and he replied "He (`Umar) knew it as one knows that there will be night before tomorrow, morning

Abu Wail, Hudhaifa ke hawale se: Umar ne logon se pucha: "Fitno ke baare mein Nabi ki kahi baat kise yaad hai?" Hudhaifa ne kaha: "Maine Nabi ko farmate suna: 'Aadmi ki apni maal, pariwara aur padosi mein aazmaish uski namaz, roze, aur sadqa dene se maaf ho jaati hai.'" Umar ne kaha: "Main iske baare mein nahi poochta, balki main un fitno ke baare mein poochta hoon jo samundar ki lehron ki tarah phailenge." Hudhaifa ne jawab diya: "In fitno ke saamne ek band darwaza hai." Umar ne pucha: "Kya woh darwaza khola jaayega ya toda jaayega?" Unhone jawab diya: "Toda jaayega." Umar ne kaha: "Phir woh darwaza Qiyamat tak dobara band nahi hoga." Humne Masruq se kaha: "Kya aap Hudhaifa se poochenge kya Umar jaante the woh darwaza kya sanket karta hai?" Unhone poocha aur jawab diya "Woh (Umar) isse aise jaante the jaise koi jaanta hai ke kal se pehle raat aayegi, subah."
