Question

Is this narration authentic and what does it mean?

قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: لتقمصن بكم قماص البكر، يعني: الأرض

 

Answer

Imam Bazzar (rahimahullah) has recorded this narration on the authority of Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (radiyallahu ‘anhu).

(Musnad Bazzar; Al Bahruz Zakkhar, Hadith: 8479)

‘Allamah Haythami (rahimahullah) has declared the narrators reliable (rijaluhu thiqat).

(Majma’uz Zawaid, vol. 10, pg. 332)

This Hadith in question is explaining the earthquake of Qiyamah. The translation is follows:

Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said, “The [earth] will certainly quake just as a young camel gallops/kicks”

(Refer: An Nihayah Fi Gharibil Hadith, vol. 2, pg. 490)

 

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.

مسند البزار: البحر الزخار:
(٨٤٧٩) – حدثنا محمد بن إسحاق الصاغاني، قال: حدثنا معلى بن منصور، قال: حدثنا عبد الله بن جعفر، يعني المخرمي، عن عثمان بن محمد، عن المقبري، عن أبي هريرة، قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: «لتقمصن بكم قماص البكر، يعني: الأرض».
وهذا الحديث لا نعلمه يروى عن أبي هريرة إلا من هذا الوجه بهذ الإسناد.

مجمع الزوائد: (١٠/ ٣٣٢)
وعن أبي هريرة قال: قال رسول الله – صلى الله عليه وسلم -: «لتقمصن بكم قماص البكر». يعني الأرض.
رواه البزار، ورجاله ثقات.

النهاية في غريب الحديث: (٢/ ٤٩٠)
(س) وحديث أبي هريرة «لتقمصن بكم الأرض قماص البقر» يعني الزلزلة.
