Hadith 79

(The book) ‘Ikmal al Deen – My father, from Sa’ad and Al Himeyri, from Ayoub Bin Nuh, from Al Rabie Bin Muhammad Al Muslimy, from Abdullah Bin Suleyman Al Aamiry, ‘From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘The earth did not cease to be and there has always been for Allah-azwj, Exalted is His-azwj Mention, a Divine Authority in it, recognising the Permissibles and the Prohibitions, and calling to the Way of Allah-azwj. And the Divine Authority will not be cut off from the earth except for forty days before the Day of Qiyamah. So, when the Divine Authority is raised, the door of repentance would be locked, and a soul will not benefit from its Eman which had not believed from before [6: 158] the Divine Authority is raised up. They are the evilest of the creatures of Allah-azwj, and they are those upon whom the Qiyamah would be established’’. [78]
