Hadith 132

and the one who argued with Ibrahim-as regarding his-as Lord-azwj, and two men from the children of Israel who replaced their Book and changed their ways. As for one of them, he Judaised the Jews, and the other one Christianised the Christians, and Iblees-la is their sixth. And Al-Dajjal-la among the latter ones, and these five, companions of the agreement which they had vowed and agreed upon being inimical to you-asws. O my-saww brother! And they will be backing each other against you-asws after me-saww, this one, and this one’ – until he-saww had named them and counted them to us’. Salman-ra said, ‘We-ra said, ‘You-asws speak the truth! We-ra testify that we-asws have heard that from Rasool-Allah-saww’. Usman said, ‘O Abu Al-Hassan-asws! Is there any Hadeeth with these companions of yours-asws regarding me? ’ Ali-asws said to him: ‘But, I-asws heard Rasool-Allah-saww cursing you, then he-saww did not seek Forgiveness for you after having cursed you’. Usman was angered, then said. ‘What is it to me, and what is the matter with you-asws? You-asws did not leave me to be upon my state in the era of the Prophet-saww, nor after him-saww’. Al-Zubeyr said, ‘Yes, may Allah-azwj Rub your nose’. Usman said, ‘By Allah-azwj! I heard Rasool-Allah-saww saying: ‘Al-Zubeyr would be killed as an apostate from ’. Salman-ra said, ‘Ali-asws said to me-ra in what is between me-ra and him-asws: ‘Usman spoke the truth. Al-Zubeyr will pledge allegiance to me-asws after the killing of Usman, and he would break my-asws allegiance and will be killed as an apostate’. Suleym said, ‘Then Ali-asws turned towards Salman-ra and said: ‘The people all of them became apostates after Rasool-Allah-saww apart from four. After Rasool-Allah-saww, the people committed to what was done in the era of Haroun-as and the ones who followed him-as and at the status of the calf and the ones following it’. Thus, Ali-asws is in Sunnah of Haroun-as, and Ateeq (Abu Bakr) in the sunnah of the calf, and Umar in the sunnah of Al-Samiri-la. And I heard Rasool-Allah-saww saying: ‘There will come a group from my-saww companions from the people held in high regard and position from me-saww to pass over the Bridge. When I-saww see them and they see me-saww, and I-saww recognise them and they recognise me-saww, they would be taken away from me-saww. I-saww shall say: ‘O Lord-azwj! My-saww companions! My-saww companions! ’ He-azwj will Say: “Don’t you-saww know what they innovated after you-saww. They turned upon their heels when you-saww separated from them’. So, I-saww shall say: ‘Be distant and crushed! ’
And I heard Rasool-Allah-saww saying: ‘My-saww community will be adopting the ways of the children of Israel, step of the slipper with the slipper, and step of the arrow with the arrow (in a quiver), palm’s width by palm’s width, and cubit by cubit, and inch by inch, when the Torah and the Quran are Written by One Hand, and in a Parchment with one pen, and the Sunnahs and the examples flow in the same manner’’.
