حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ عَبِيدَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏ "‏ خَيْرُ النَّاسِ قَرْنِي، ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ، ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ، ثُمَّ يَجِيءُ قَوْمٌ تَسْبِقُ شَهَادَةُ أَحَدِهِمْ يَمِينَهُ وَيَمِينُهُ شَهَادَتَهُ ‏"‏. قَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ وَكَانُوا يَضْرِبُونَا عَلَى الشَّهَادَةِ وَالْعَهْدِ وَنَحْنُ صِغَارٌ.

English translation
Narrated `Abdullah: The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "The best people are those living in my generation, and then those who will follow them, and then those who will follow the latter. Then there will come some people who will bear witness before taking oaths, and take oaths before bearing witness." (Ibrahim, a sub-narrator said, "They used to beat us for witnesses and covenants when we were still children)
বাংলা অনুবাদ
আবদুল্লাহ (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত যে, নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেন, আমার উম্মাতের সর্বোত্তম মানুষ আমার যুগের মানুষ (সাহাবীগণ)। অতঃপর তৎপরবর্তী যুগ। অতঃপর তৎপরবর্তী যুগ। অতঃপর এমন লোকদের আগমন হবে যাদের কেউ সাক্ষ্য দানের পূর্বে কসম এবং কসমের পূর্বে সাক্ষ্য দান করবে। ইব্রাহীম (নাখ্য়ী; রাবী) বলেন, ছোট বেলায় আমাদের মুরুববীগণ আল্লাহর নামে কসম করে সাক্ষ্য প্রদানের জন্য এবং ওয়াদা-অঙ্গীকার করার কারণে আমাদেরকে মারধর করতেন। (২৬৫২) (আধুনিক প্রকাশনীঃ ৩৩৭৯, ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশনঃ)
