Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ يَا آدَمُ قُمْ فَابْعَثْ بَعْثَ النَّارِ فَيَقُولُ لَبَّيْكَ وَسَعْدَيْكَ وَالْخَيْرُ فِي يَدَيْكَ يَا رَبِّ وَمَا بَعْثُ النَّارِ قَالَ مِنْ كُلِّ أَلْفٍ تِسْعَ مِائَةٍ وَتِسْعَةً وَتِسْعِينَ قَالَ فَحِينَئِذٍ يَشِيبُ الْمَوْلُودُ وَتَضَعُ كُلُّ ذَاتِ حَمْلٍ حَمْلَهَا وَتَرَى النَّاسَ سُكَارَى وَمَا هُمْ بِسُكَارَى وَلَكِنَّ عَذَابَ اللَّهِ شَدِيدٌ قَالَ فَيَقُولُونَ فَأَيُّنَا ذَلِكَ الْوَاحِدُ قَالَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ تِسْعَ مِائَةٍ وَتِسْعَةً وَتِسْعِينَ مِنْ يَأْجُوجَ وَمَأْجُوجَ وَمِنْكُمْ وَاحِدٌ قَالَ فَقَالَ النَّاسُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَفَلَا تَرْضَوْنَ أَنْ تَكُونُوا رُبُعَ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ وَاللَّهِ إِنِّي لَأَرْجُو أَنْ تَكُونُوا رُبُعَ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ وَاللَّهِ إِنِّي لَأَرْجُو أَنْ تَكُونُوا ثُلُثَ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ وَاللَّهِ إِنِّي لَأَرْجُو أَنْ تَكُونُوا نِصْفَ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ قَالَ فَكَبَّرَ النَّاسُ قَالَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَا أَنْتُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ فِي النَّاسِ إِلَّا كَالشَّعْرَةِ الْبَيْضَاءِ فِي الثَّوْرِ الْأَسْوَدِ أَوْ كَالشَّعْرَةِ السَّوْدَاءِ فِي الثَّوْرِ الْأَبْيَضِ.
English Translation
Waki' told us, from al-A'mash, from Abu Salih, from Abu Sa'id al-Khudri, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Allah, Mighty and Sublime, will say on the Day of Resurrection, 'O Adam, rise and send forth the delegation of the Fire.' He will say, 'At Your service and at Your pleasure, and all good is in Your hands, O Lord; what is the delegation of the Fire?' He will say, 'From every thousand, nine hundred and ninety-nine.'" He said: "At that, the newborn child will turn grey-haired, every pregnant woman will drop her load, and you will see the people drunk, though they are not drunk, but the punishment of Allah is severe." They said, "Then which of us will be that one saved?" He said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Nine hundred and ninety-nine from Gog and Magog, and one from you." The people then said, "Allah is greatest." The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) then said, "Would you not be pleased to be a quarter of the people of Paradise? By Allah, I hope that you will be a quarter of the people of Paradise. By Allah, I hope that you will be a third of the people of Paradise. By Allah, I hope that you will be half of the people of Paradise." He said: The people then said, "Allah is greatest." He said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) then said, "You, on that day, among the other people, will be nothing but like a white hair on a black bull, or like a black hair on a white bull."
