479. Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Al-Nowfaly, from Al-Sakuny, who has narrated the following
Abu Abdullah (asws) has said that the Amir-ul- Momineen (asws) said: ‘The Rasool Allah (saww) said: ‘There will come upon the people a time when nothing will remain from the Quran except for its image, and nothing from Al-Islam except for its name. They will be named by it (as Muslims) but they would be far from it. Their Masjid will be well built but would be ruins in matters of guidance. The Jurists of that era would be the most evil jurists under the shadow of the sky. The strife (Fitna) would commence from them and end up to them’.
عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ النَّوْفَلِيِّ عَنِ السَّكُونِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلام) قَالَ
قَالَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ (عليه السلام) قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ (صلى الله عليه وآله) سَيَأْتِي عَلَى النَّاسِ زَمَانٌ لَا يَبْقَى مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ إِلَّا رَسْمُهُ وَ مِنَ الْإِسْلَامِ إِلَّا اسْمُهُ يُسَمَّوْنَ بِهِ وَ هُمْ أَبْعَدُ النَّاسِ مِنْهُ مَسَاجِدُهُمْ عَامِرَةٌ وَ هِيَ خَرَابٌ مِنَ الْهُدَى فُقَهَاءُ ذَلِكَ الزَّمَانِ شَرُّ فُقَهَاءَ تَحْتَ ظِلِّ السَّمَاءِ مِنْهُمْ خَرَجَتِ الْفِتْنَةُ وَ إِلَيْهِمْ تَعُودُ.
