English

[5977] 31 – (. 4 It was narrated that 'Uqbah bin 'Amir said: "The Messenger of Allah prayed for those who had been slain at Uhud, then he ascended the Virtues And Merits of Prophets 152 J4Ji Minbar like one who was bidding farewell to the living and the dead. He said: 'I will reach the Cistern ahead of you, and its width is like the distance between Aylah and Al-JuIfah. I do not fear that you will associate others with Allah after I am gone, but I fear that you will compete with one another for worldly gains and you will fight one another and be destroyed as those who came before you were destroyed." 'Uqbah said: "That was the last thing I heard the Messenger of Allah say on the Minbar."
