Ibn Hudhaifah says that I learned a hadith from Hazrat ‘Adi bin Hatim (may Allah be pleased with him), so I thought that since he is in Kufa, I should go to him and listen to it directly from him. So I went to him and said,“I have learned a hadith attributed to you, but I want to hear it from you myself.”He said,“Very well. When I heard the news of the Prophet Muhammad’s (peace be upon him) declaration of prophethood, I was greatly displeased. I left my area and reached the border of Rome and went to Caesar, but upon reaching there, I felt even more displeasure than I had felt upon hearing the news of prophethood. I thought, ‘Let me go to this man and see for myself. If he is a liar, he cannot harm me, and if he is truthful, I will know.’ So I returned and went to the service of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). When I arrived, people began to say, ‘Adi bin Hatim, Adi bin Hatim.’ I reached the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), and he, may Allah have mercy on him, said to me, ‘O ‘Adi! Accept Islam and you will find peace.’ He repeated this three times. I said, ‘I am already following a religion.’ The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said, ‘I know your religion better than you do.’ I said, ‘You know my religion better than I do?’ The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said, ‘Yes! Are you not from the“Rukusiyyah”who consume a quarter of the spoils of your people?’ I said, ‘Why not?’ The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said, ‘Even though this is not lawful in your religion.’ What the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said after this, I submitted to it. Then the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said, ‘I know what is preventing you from accepting Islam. You think that the followers of this religion are weak and insignificant people whom the Arabs have rejected. Tell me, do you know the city of Hira?’ I said, ‘I have not seen it, but I have heard of it.’ The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said, ‘By the One in whose hand is my soul, Allah will complete this religion until a woman will leave Hira and perform tawaf of the House of Allah without any guard, and soon the treasures of Kisra bin Hurmuz will be conquered.’ I asked in amazement, ‘Kisra bin Hurmuz?’ The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said, ‘Yes! Kisra bin Hurmuz. And soon so much wealth will be spent that there will be no one left to accept it.’ Hazrat ‘Adi (may Allah be pleased with him) says, ‘Indeed, now a woman leaves Hira and performs tawaf of the House of Allah without any guard, and I myself was among those who conquered the treasures of Kisra bin Hurmuz. And by the One in whose hand is my soul, the third thing will also certainly occur, because the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) foretold it.’
