Home Hadith Hadith 7176
The Prophet (ﷺ) stood before Musailama (the liar) who was sitting with his companions then, and said to
him, "If you ask me for this piece (of palm-leaf stalk), even then I would not give it to you. You
cannot avoid what Allah has ordained for you, and if you turn away from Islam, Allah will surely ruin
you! "
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 97, Hadith 87

I heard the Prophet (ﷺ) saying, "A group of my followers will keep on following Allah's Laws strictly and
they will not be harmed by those who will disbelieve them or stand against them till Allah's Order
(The Hour) will come while they will be in that state."

While I was walking in company with the Prophet (ﷺ) in one of the fields of Medina, the Prophet (ﷺ) was
reclining on a palm leave stalk which he carried with him. We passed by a group of Jews. Some of
them said to the others, "Ask him about the spirit." The others said, "Do not ask him, lest he would
say something that you hate." Some of them said, "We will ask him." So a man from among them
stood up and said, 'O Abal-Qasim! What is the spirit?" The Prophet (ﷺ) kept quiet and I knew that he was
being divinely inspired. Then he said: "They ask you concerning the Spirit, Say: The Spirit; its
knowledge is with my Lord. And of knowledge you (mankind) have been given only a little." (17.85)
