Abdullah bin Mula says that one day I was walking in "Ahwaz" when I saw a man ahead of me riding a mule and saying, "O Allah! My time has passed from among this Ummah, so include me among them." I said, "Please include me in your supplication as well." He said, "If my companion also wishes, then (include him)." Then he said that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said, "The best of my Ummah are those of my era, then those who come after them (I do not remember whether he mentioned the third time or not), then there will come people among whom obesity will prevail, they will be ready to give testimony without being asked." That companion was Hazrat Buraidah Aslami (may Allah be pleased with him).
