Chapter 41 To speak about (religious) knowledge at night
باب السَّمَرِ بِالْعِلْمِ
Sahih al-Bukhari 116

Narrated `Abdullah bin `Umar:

Once the Prophet (ﷺ) led us in the `Isha’ prayer during the last days of his life and after finishing it (the
prayer) (with Taslim) he said: “Do you realize (the importance of) this night?” Nobody present on the
surface of the earth tonight will be living after the completion of one hundred years from this night.”

حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عُفَيْرٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي اللَّيْثُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ سَالِمٍ، وَأَبِي، بَكْرِ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ أَبِي حَثْمَةَ أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ، قَالَ صَلَّى بِنَا النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم الْعِشَاءَ فِي آخِرِ حَيَاتِهِ، فَلَمَّا سَلَّمَ قَامَ فَقَالَ ‏”‏ أَرَأَيْتَكُمْ لَيْلَتَكُمْ هَذِهِ، فَإِنَّ رَأْسَ مِائَةِ سَنَةٍ مِنْهَا لاَ يَبْقَى مِمَّنْ هُوَ عَلَى ظَهْرِ الأَرْضِ أَحَدٌ ‏”‏‏.‏
