It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ka'b bin Ujrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came out to us; we were nine people, and there were cushions of red leather between us. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, after me there will soon be rulers. Whoever affirms their lies and helps them in their oppression, he is not from me and I am not from him, and he will never reach me at the Pool. And whoever does not affirm their lies and does not help them in their oppression, he is from me and I am from him, and he will soon reach me at the Pool."
