Hadith 352

(The book) ‘Al-Ghayba’ of Al-Numani – Ibn Uqdah, from Ali Bin Al Hassan Al Taymuli, from Muhammad Bin Umar Bin Yazeed, and Muhammad Bin Al Waleed Bin Khalid, altogether from Hammad Bin Usman, from Abdullah Bin Sinan, from Muhammad Bin Ibrahim Bin Abu Al Bilad, from his father, from Ibn Nubata who said, ‘I heard Ali-asws saying: ‘In front of Al-Qaim-ajfj there would be years of deception. The truthful will be belied during it and the liar would be ratified, and ‘Al-Mahil’ would be drawn near in it’. And in a Hadeeth: ‘Al-Ruweyza would speak in it’. I said, ‘And what is ‘Al-Ruweyza’ and what is ‘Al-Mahil’? ’
He-asws said: ‘Are you not reading the Quran? His-azwj Word: and He is Mighty in Strength [13: 13]’. He-asws said: ‘He-azwj Intends the planning’. I said, ‘and what is ‘Al-Mahil’? ’ He-asws said: ‘It intends the plotter’’. [133]
Explanation: Perhaps in the Hadeeth there is a dropped phrase. And Al-jazry said, ‘In a Hadeeth of conditions of the Hour, ‘And Al-Ruweyza’ would speak regarding the matters of the general public’. I was said, ‘And what is ‘Al-Ruweyza’, O Rasool-Allah-saww? ’ He-saww said: ‘The petty man speaking regarding the matters of the general public’.
