Amr ibn al-As ha riportato: "Sarà stabilita l'ora ed i romani saranno in maggioranza tra il popolo"
Un importatore Quraish disse ad Amr ibn al-As di aver sentito il Messaggero di Allah, pace e benedizioni su di lui, dire "Sarà stabilita l'ora ed i romani saranno in maggioranza tra il popolo" Amr gli disse : "Fai attenzione a quello che dici" L'uomo rispose, "ho detto quello che ho sentito dire dal Messaggero di Allah.", ha detto Amr, "In effetti il Profeta ha detto che ci sono quattro qualità in loro: essi sono i più giudiziosi verso le persone quando vi è una tribolazione, sono i più veloci a recuperare dopo una calamità, sono i più veloci a tornare a combattere dopo un ritiro, e si comportano bene con i poveri dei deboli e degli orfani, e la loro quinta qualità è che sono i migliori ad impedire l'oppressione dei loro re ".

قال المستورد القرشي عند عمرو بن العاص سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول تقوم الساعة والروم أكثر الناس فقال له عمرو أبصر ما تقول قال أقول ما سمعت من رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال لئن قلت ذلك إن فيهم لخصالا أربعا إنهم لأحلم الناس عند فتنة وأسرعهم إفاقة بعد مصيبة وأوشكهم كرة بعد فرة وخيرهم لمسكين ويتيم وضعيف وخامسة حسنة جميلة وأمنعهم من ظلم الملوك

Question
Salam alaikum, I have read following hadith in
Signs of the Day of Judgment by Ibn Kathir: When Mustawrid al-Qurashee
was sitting with 'Amr ibn al-'Aas, he said, "I heard the Prophet
(sal-Allaahu 'alayhe wa sallam) say, 'The Hour will come when the Romans
will be in the majority.' 'Amr asked him, "What are you saying?" He
said, "I am repeating that which I heard from the Prophet (sal-Allaahu
'alayhe wa sallam)." 'Amr said, "If you say this, it is true, because
they have four good characteristics: they are the most able to cope with
tribulation, the quickest to recover after disaster and to return to
the fight after disaster, and are the best as far as treating the poor,
weak and orphans is concerned. They have a fifth characteristic which is
very good; they do not allow themselves to be oppressed by their
kings." [Muslim, Kitaab al-Fitaan, 8 - 176.] Could you pls explain me
this hadith? Salam alaikum, Nuha
Answer
All
perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that
there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad
, is His slave and Messenger.
This Hadeeth was reported by Imaam Muslim
in his Saheeh in Kitaab Al-Fitan (the Book of Tribulations), and it
mentions something about the signs of the Hour, which is the abundant
number of the Romans; this means that others will be little in number
compared to them, as stated by Al-Munaawi in his book entitled Faydh Al-Qadeer.
As regards the statement of ‘Amr Ibn Al’Aas
to Al-Mustawrid
“See what you are saying”, it implies a kind of confirmation and making sure if this statement was really from the Prophet
, so he confirmed to him that he had indeed heard it from the Prophet
. Of course, he was not accusing him [Al-Mustawrid] of lying because the Companions
used to trust each other.
Ibn ‘Adiyy reported in his book entitled Al-Kaamil, from Humayd At-Taweel that when Anas Ibn Maalik
narrated a Hadeeth, it might be that he was asked: “Did you yourself hear this from the Prophet
?” Thereupon, he would become angry and say: ''Not everything that we narrate to you, we have heard it from the Prophet
, and none of us used to tell a lie against the other.”
Besides, with the characteristics that ‘Amr Ibn Al-‘Aas,
may Allaah be pleased him, mentioned, he wanted to clarify the reasons
which led and helped the Romans to continue to exist, and hence their
being in the majority when the Hour takes place.
As
regards the meaning of ‘they are the most able to cope with
tribulation’; it means that they are the wisest and most aware in
dealing with tribulation in a careful manner so that they will come out
of it peacefully.
With regard to the meaning of ‘the quickest to recover after a disaster’,
it means that they are quick to restore themselves to sanity after a
disaster, so they neither surrender to it nor do they become weak
because of it.
As for the meaning of ‘the quickest to attack again after flight’,
it means that they are the fastest people to engage in war and attack
again if ever it happened that they fled from their enemy in some cases.
As regards the meaning of ‘the best as far as treating the poor, the orphans and the weak is concerned’’,
it means that they are the best people to treat the destitute, the
orphans and the weak people, and to protect their interests and care for
their own affairs.
Finally,
it should be mentioned that there are some universal laws (set by
Allaah for His creation), if one follows them, he will get their effects
[results], and this applies equally to Muslims and non-Muslims.
However, if a Muslim is characterized by them, he will find more support
from the Lord of the Worlds as an honor to him because of him being a
Muslim. So, it is good if the Muslims are characterized by such
qualities.
Allaah Knows best.
