The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "A man will be given allegiance between the Corner and the Station. None will violate the sanctity of the Sacred House except its own people. When they violate it, do not ask about the destruction of the Arabs. Then the Abyssinians will come and demolish it with a destruction after which it will never be rebuilt. They are the ones who will extract its treasure."
حدثنا يزيد أخبرنا ابن أبي ذئب عن سعيد بن سمعان قال سمعت أبا هريرة
أن رسول الله ﷺ قال يبايع لرجل ما بين الركن والمقام ولن يستحل البيت إلا أهله فإذا استحلوه فلا يسأل عن هلكة العرب ثم تأتي الحبشة فيخربونه خرابا لا يعمر بعده أبدا وهم الذين يستخرجون كنزه
Its chain of transmission is sahih. Saeed bin Saman - with a kasrah on the sin and a sakinah on the meem - the freedman of the Ansar, was a trustworthy successor. Nasai, Daraqutni, and others deemed him trustworthy. Bukhari mentioned him in al-Kabir 439/1/2, and Ibn Abu Hatim in 2/1/30, and neither of them mentioned any criticism of him. The hadith appears in Jami al-Masanid, 135, from this location, and will come again at 8099 from Zayd bin Hubab, from Ibn Abu Dhib. Abu Dawud Tayalisi related it in his Musnad, 2373, from Ibn Abu Dhib. Hakim related it in al-Mustadrak, 452/4-453, through Assad bin Musa and Ishaq bin Sulayman Razi, both from Ibn Abu Dhib, with this wording. Hakim said, "This is a sahih hadith meeting the criteria of the two Shaykhs, though they did not include it." Dhahabi responded to this, saying, "The two Shaykhs did not narrate anything from Ibn Saman, and no one narrated from him except Ibn Abu Dhib. And he has been criticized."As for the claim that the two Shaykhs did not narrate anything from Ibn Saman, this is correct. But as for the claim that no one narrated from him except Ibn Abu Dhib, al-Tahdhib mentions two other narrators who related from him. As for the claim that he was criticized, this carries no weight, because the only one who criticized him was al-Azdi alone, and he is known for weakening many narrators without evidence or a sound transmission to support it. What we have mentioned regarding those who deemed Ibn Saman trustworthy is sufficient, along with the fact that Bukhari and Ibn Abu Hatim did not mention any criticism of him.An important note, the printed abridgment of Dhahabi's work contains the phrase "Ibn Abu Dhib did not narrate from him," with the word "no one" (ghayr) omitted. This is an error by the printer or copyist, and the correct wording is preserved in the manuscript of Dhahabi's abridgment that I have. Al-Hafiz mentioned the hadith in al-Fath, 369/3, attributing it to Ahmad alone. Haythami also mentioned it in Majma al-Zawaid, 3/298, saying, "Ahmad related it, and its narrators are trustworthy."
