حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا غُنْدَرٌ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا جَمْرَةَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي زَهْدَمُ بْنُ مُضَرِّبٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عِمْرَانَ بْنَ حُصَيْنٍ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏"‏ خَيْرُكُمْ قَرْنِي، ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ، ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ ‏"‏. قَالَ عِمْرَانُ فَمَا أَدْرِي قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم بَعْدَ قَوْلِهِ مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلاَثًا ‏"‏ ثُمَّ يَكُونُ بَعْدَهُمْ قَوْمٌ يَشْهَدُونَ وَلاَ يُسْتَشْهَدُونَ، وَيَخُونُونَ وَلاَ يُؤْتَمَنُونَ، وَيَنْذِرُونَ وَلاَ يَفُونَ وَيَظْهَرُ فِيهِمُ السِّمَنُ ‏"‏.

English translation
Narrated Zahdam bin Mudarrib: `Imran bin Husain said: The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "The best people are my contemporaries (i.e., the present (my) generation) and then those who come after them (i.e., the next generation)." `Imran added: I am not sure whether the Prophet (ﷺ) repeated the statement twice after his first saying. The Prophet (ﷺ) added, "And after them there will come people who will bear witness, though they will not be asked to give their witness; and they will be treacherous and nobody will trust them, and they will make vows, but will not fulfill them, and fatness will appear among them
বাংলা অনুবাদ
‘ইমরান ইবনু হুসায়ন (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত যে, নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেছেনঃ তোমাদের মধ্যে আমার যুগের লোকেরাই সর্বোত্তম। তারপর এর পরবর্তী যুগের লোকেরা। তারপর এর পরবর্তী যুগের লোকেরা। ‘ইমরান (রাঃ) বর্ণনা করেন, নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম এ কথাটি দু’বার কি তিনবার বললেন, তা আমার স্মরণ নেই- তারপর এমন লোকেরা আসবে যে, তারা সাক্ষ্য দিবে, অথচ তাদের সাক্ষ্য চাওয়া হবে না। তারা খিয়ানতকারী হবে। তাদের নিকট আমানত রাখা হবে না। তারা মানত করে তা পূরণ করবে না। তারা দেখতে মোটা তাজা হবে। [২৬৫১] (আধুনিক প্রকাশনী- ৫৯৭৯, ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশন)
