A wolf came upon a shepherd tending his flock and seized one of the sheep. The shepherd chased the wolf until he wrested the sheep back from it. The wolf then climbed up a hill, sat back on its haunches, and lashed its tail, saying, "You went after a provision that Allah had granted me and snatched it away from me."The shepherd said, "By Allah, I have never seen anything like this day, a wolf that speaks!"The wolf replied, "More astonishing than this is a man among the palm trees between the two lava fields who tells you of what has passed and what will come after you."The man was a Jew. He went to the Prophet ﷺ, embraced Islam, and informed him of what had happened. The Prophet ﷺ confirmed his account, then said, "This is one of the signs that precede the Hour. The time has drawn near when a man will leave his home and not return until his sandals and his whip tell him what his family did after him."
حدثنا عبد الرزاق أخبرنا معمر عن أشعث بن عبد الله عن شهر بن حوشب
جاء ذئب إلى راعي غنم فأخذ منها شاة فطلبه الراعي حتى انتزعها منه قال فصعد الذئب على تل فأقعى واستذفر فقال عمدت إلى رزق رزقنيه الله عز وجل انتزعته مني فقال الرجل تالله إن رأيت كاليوم ذئبا يتكلم قال الذئب أعجب من هذا رجل في النخلات بين الحرتين يخبركم بما مضى وبما هو كائن بعدكم وكان الرجل يهوديا فجاء الرجل إلى النبي ﷺ فأسلم وخبره فصدقه النبي ﷺ ثم قال النبي ﷺ إنها أمارة من أمارات بين يدي الساعة قد أوشك الرجل أن يخرج فلا يرجع حتى تحدثه نعلاه وسوطه ما أحدث أهله بعده
