Hadith on Ummah: Allah protects the Muslims from three disasters

Abu Malik al-Ash’ari reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Verily, Allah has protected you from three calamities: that your Prophet supplicate against you and thus you all perish, that the people of falsehood prevail over the people of truth, and that you would unite upon misguidance.”

عَنْ أَبِي مَالِكٍ يَعْنِي الْأَشْعَرِيَّ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ أَجَارَكُمْ مِنْ ثَلَاثِ خِلَالٍ أَنْ لَا يَدْعُوَ عَلَيْكُمْ نَبِيُّكُمْ فَتَهْلَكُوا جَمِيعًا وَأَنْ لَا يَظْهَرَ أَهْلُ الْبَاطِلِ عَلَى أَهْلِ الْحَقِّ وَأَنْ لَا تَجْتَمِعُوا عَلَى ضَلَالَةٍ
