حدثنا ابو العباس محمد بن يعقوب، اخبرنا محمد بن عبد الله، اخبرنا ابن وهب، اخبرني ابو هانئ حميد بن هانئ الخولاني، حدثني ابو سعيد الغفاري، انه قال: سمعت ابا هريرة يقول: سمعت رسول الله ﷺ يقول:"سيصيب امتي داء الامم" فقالوا: يا رسول الله، وما داء الامم؟ قال:"الاشر، والبطر، والتكاثر، والتناجش (3) في الدنيا، والتباغض، والتحاسد حتى يكون البغي" (4).
هذا حديث صحيح الإسناد، ولم يخرجاه.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: "Soon my Ummah will be afflicted by the disease of the earlier nations." The Companions said: "O Messenger of Allah! What is the disease of the earlier nations?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Ingratitude, excessive exultation, greed for amassing wealth, deceiving one another in worldly matters, mutual hatred and envy, until transgression and oppression arise."
This hadith has a sahih (authentic) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

Hadith-science notes and terminology
Note / Clarification: In the manuscripts this word is like this, whereas in the source works it is "al-tanafus", and this appears to be the correct form.
(3) كذا في النسخ الخطية، وفي مصادر التخريج: التنافس، وهو الوجه.
Grading: Its chain can possibly be graded hasan.
Technical note / Defect ('illah): Abu Sa'id al-Ghifari - he is also called Abu Sa'd, and this is the preferred view, as stated in the sources for his biography - two narrators narrated from him and Ibn Hibban mentioned him in "al-Thiqat", so he may possibly be a narrator of hasan level. All the rest of its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).

(4) إسناده محتمل للتحسين، أبو سعيد الغفاري - ويقال: أبو سعد، وهو الراجح كما في مصادر ترجمته - روى عنه اثنان، وذكره ابن حبان في "الثقات"، فهو محتمل للتحسين، وباقي رجاله ثقات.
Technical note / Defect ('illah): And al-'Iraqi declared its chain "jayyid" (good) in his takhrij of "Ihya' 'Ulum al-Din" (3/ 187). Also see Ibn Abi Hatim's "al-'Ilal" (2543).
وجوَّد إسناده العراقي في تخريج "الإحياء" 3/ 187. وانظر "العلل" لابن أبي حاتم (2543).
Reference / Source: It was narrated by Ibn Abi al-Dunya in "Dhamm al-Baghy" (2) and "al-'Uqubat" (261), Ibn Waddah in "al-Bida'" (227), Ibn Abi Hatim in "al-'Ilal" (2543) and al-Tabarani in "al-Awsat" (9016), via various routes from 'Abdullah bin Wahb, with this same chain. All of them added at its end the words: "Then there will be al-harj (killing)."
Technical note / Defect ('illah): Al-Tabarani said: No one narrated it from Abu Sa'id al-Ghifari except Abu Hani'.
Technical note / Defect ('illah): Al-Tabarani said: No one narrated it from Abu Sa'id al-Ghifari except Abu Hani'.
وأخرجه ابن أبي الدنيا في "ذم البغي" (2)، وفي "العقوبات" (261)، وابن وضاح في "البدع" (227)، وابن أبي حاتم في "العلل" (2543)، والطبراني في "الأوسط" (9016) من طرق عن عبد الله بن وهب، بهذا الإسناد. وزادوا في آخره. ثم يكون الهَرْج. قال الطبرانيّ: لم يروه عن أبي سعيد الغفاري إلّا أبو هانئ.
Corroborating chains and supporting reports: On this topic there is a narration from Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) in al-Bukhari (6064) and Muslim (2563) with the wording: "Do not envy one another, do not turn your backs on one another, do not hate one another, and be, O servants of Allah, brothers."
وفي الباب عن أبي هريرة عند البخاريّ (6064)، ومسلم (2563)، بلفظ: "لا تحاسدوا ولا تدابروا ولا تباغضوا، وكونوا عباد الله إخوانًا".
Corroborating chains and supporting reports: And a similar narration is from Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) in al-Bukhari (6065) and Muslim (2558).
وبنحوه عن أنس بن مالك عند البخاريّ (6065)، ومسلم (2558).
Corroborating chains and supporting reports: And from al-Zubayr bin al-'Awwam (may Allah be pleased with him) there is a narration in Musnad Ahmad (3/ 1412) with the wording: "The disease of the nations before you has crept into you: envy and hatred, and hatred is the shaver", etc. Its chain has a break (inqita').
وعن الزبير بن العوام عند أحمد 3/ (1412)، بلفظ: "دبَّ إليكم داءُ الأمم قبلكم: الحسد والبغضاء، والبغضاء هي الحالقة … إلخ"، وفي سنده انقطاع.
Note / Clarification: The word "al-ashar" is like "al-batar" (exultant arrogance) in both pattern and meaning, and it is said that it is "intense batar". "Al-batar" means: transgressing (being ungrateful) upon receiving a blessing.
والأشر كالبَطَر وزنًا ومعنى، وقيل: أشدّ البطر، والبطر: هو الطغيان عند النعمة.
Note / Clarification: "Al-baghy": oppression and wrongdoing. In the source works there is the addition: "Then there will be al-harj", and al-harj means killing.
والبغيّ: الظلم، وزاد في مصادر التخريج: ثم يكون الهَرْج، وهو القتل.
