Shahih Muslim - 206

Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Abu Bakar bin Abu Syaibah] telah menceritakan kepada kami [Abu Mua'wiyah] dan [Waki']. (dalam riwayat lain disebutkan) Dan telah menceritakan kepada kami [Abu Kuraib] telah menceritakan kepada kami [Abu Muawiyah] dari [al-A'masy] dari [Zaid bin Wahab] dari [Hudzaifah] dia berkata, "Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam telah menceritakan kepada kami dua hadits, aku telah mengetahui salah satu darinya, dan aku masih menunggu Hadits yang kedua. Beliau menceritakan kepada kami bahwa Amanah ditempatkan pada pangkal hati seorang lelaki. Setelah al-Qur'an diturunkan, mereka mulai mempelajari dari al-Qur'an dan mereka mulai mengetahui dari Sunnah. Lalu beliau menceritakan kepada kami tentang hilangnya amanah dengan bersabda: "Seorang lelaki sedang tidur lalu amanah diambil dari hatinya sehingga nampaklah bekasnya. Kemudian dia tidur lagi lalu diambil pula amanah dari hatinya sehingga bekasnya bengkak seperti melepuh karena terkena bara yang jatuh ke kaki. Bekas tersebut terus membengkak, sedangkan tidak ada apa-apa di dalamnya, " lalu beliau mengambil batu kecil lalu menjatuhkannya ke kaki beliau. Orang-orang kembali meneruskan perdagangan masing-masing. Hampir tidak ada seorang pun yang menunaikan amanah, lantas dikatakan, 'Di kalangan Bani Fulan ada seorang lelaki yang sangat amanah. Sehingga dikatakan untuk laki-laki tersebut, 'Alangkah tabahnya! Alangkah cerdasnya! Alangkah pintarnya! ' Sedangkan di hatinya tidak ada iman walaupun sebesar biji sawi. Benar-benar telah datang kepadaku suatu zaman, dan aku tidak peduli kepada siapa di antara kalian yang mana aku berjual beli dengannya. Jika dia orang Islam maka agamanya akan mencegahnya mengkhianatiku. Seandainya dia seorang Nashrani atau Yahudi maka pemimpinnya akan mencegahnya dari mengkhianatiku. Adapun hari ini, aku hanya berjual beli dengan si Fulan dan si Fulan." Dan telah menceritakan kepada kami [Ibnu Numair] telah menceritakan kepada kami [bapakku] dan [Waki']. (dalam riwayat lain disebutkan) Dan telah menceritakan kepada kami [Ishaq bin Ibrahim] telah menceritakan kepada kami [Isa bin Yunus] semuanya dari [al-A'masy] dengan sanad ini semisalnya." (HR. Muslim: 206)

Hudhaifa reported: The Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) narrated to us two ahadith. I have seen one (crystallized into reality), and I am waiting for the other. He told us: Trustworthiness descended in the innermost (root) of the hearts of people. Then the Qur'an was revealed and they learnt from the Qur'an and they learnt from the Sunnah. Then he (the Holy Prophet) told us about the removal of trustworthiness. He said: The man would have a wink of sleep and trustworthiness would be taken away from his heart leaving the impression of a faint mark. He would again sleep and trustworthiness would be taken away from his heart leaving an impression of a blister, as if you rolled down an ember on your foot and it was vesicled. He would see a swelling having nothing in it. He (the Holy Prophet) then took up a pebble and rolled it down over his foot and (said): The people would enter into transactions amongst one another and hardly a person would be left who would return (things) entrusted to him. (And there would be so much paucity of honest persons) till it would be said: There in such a such tribe is a trustworthy man. And they would also say about a person: How prudent he is, how broad-minded he is and how intelligent he is, whereas in his heart there would not be faith even to the weight of a mustard seed. I have passed through a time in which I did not care with whom amongst you I entered into a transaction, for if he were a Muslim his faith would compel him to discharge his obligations to me and it he were a Christian or a Jew, the ruler would compel him to discharge his obligations to me. But today I would not enter into a transaction with you except so and so. This hadith has been transmitted by another chain of transmitters: Ibn Numair, Waki', Ishaq b. Ibrahim, 'Isa b. Yunus on the authority of A'mash. (Muslim: 206)
