Hadith 2951

Shu'ba reported: I heard Qatada and Abu Tayyab narrating that both of them heard Anas as narrating that Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: I and the Last Hour have been sent like this, and Shu'ba drew his forefinger and middle finger near each other while narrating it.

وَحَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَبِيبٍ الْحَارِثِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ، - يَعْنِي ابْنَ الْحَارِثِ - حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ قَتَادَةَ، وَأَبَا التَّيَّاحِ، يُحَدِّثَانِ أَنَّهُمَا سَمِعَا أَنَسًا، يُحَدِّثُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏"‏ بُعِثْتُ أَنَا وَالسَّاعَةُ هَكَذَا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ وَقَرَنَ شُعْبَةُ بَيْنَ إِصْبَعَيْهِ الْمُسَبِّحَةِ وَالْوُسْطَى يَحْكِيهِ ‏.‏
