Abu Ishaq reported from `Ikrimah from Ibn `Abbas that Abu Bakr said, "O Allah's Messenger! You are becoming gray'' The Messenger replied,

«شَيَّبَتْنِي هُودٌ وَالْوَاقِعَةُ وَالْمُرْسَلَاتُ وَعَمَّ يَتَسَاءَلُونَ وَإِذَا الشَّمْسُ كُوِّرَت»

(Hud (chapter 11), Al-Waqi`ah (56), Al-Mursalat (77), `Amma Yatasa'alun (78) and Idha Ash-Shamsu Kuwwirat (81) have made me gray.) At-Tirmidhi collected this Hadith and said, "Hasan Gharib.''

[بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَـنِ الرَّحِيمِ

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

[إِذَا وَقَعَتِ الْوَاقِعَةُ- لَيْسَ لِوَقْعَتِهَا كَاذِبَةٌ- خَافِضَةٌ رَّافِعَةٌ- إِذَا رُجَّتِ الاْرْضُ رَجّاً- وَبُسَّتِ الْجِبَالُ بَسّاً- فَكَانَتْ هَبَآء مُّنبَثّاً- وَكُنتُمْ أَزْوَاجاً ثَلَـثَةً- فَأَصْحَـبُ الْمَيْمَنَةِ مَآ أَصْحَـبُ الْمَيْمَنَةِ- وَأَصْحَـبُ الْمَشْـئَمَةِ مَآ أَصْحَـبُ الْمَشْـئَمَةِ- وَالسَّـبِقُونَ السَّـبِقُونَ- أُوْلَـئِكَ الْمُقَرَّبُونَ- فِى جَنَّـتِ النَّعِيمِ-]

(1. When the Waqi`ah occurs) (2. There is not, for its occurrence, Kadhibah.) (3. Bringing low (some), exalting (others).) (4. When the earth will be shaken with a terrible shake.) (5. And the mountains will be powdered to dust,) (6. So that they will become floating dust particles.) (7. And you (all) will be in three groups. ) (8. So those on the right -- how (fortunate) will be those on the right!) (9. And those on the left -- how (unfortunate) will be those on the left!) (10. And those foremost will be foremost.) (11. These will be the nearest (to Allah).) (12. In the Gardens of Delight.)
