وَعَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ
قَالَ: كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَشَخَصَ بِبَصَرِهِ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ ثُمَّ قَالَ: «هَذَا أَوَانٌ يُخْتَلَسُ فِيهِ الْعِلْمُ مِنَ النَّاسِ حَتَّى لَا يَقْدِرُوا مِنْهُ على شَيْء»
Abu Darda told how God’s messenger, on an occasion when they were with him, turned his eyes to the sky and said, “This is a time when knowledge will be snatched away from men, so that they will be unable to acquire any.”
