46 – ʿAbd Allah narrated to us; he said: Azhar ibn Marwan al-Raqashi informed us; he said: Jaʿfar ibn Sulayman informed us; he said: Ibn Abi Shayban informed us, from ʿAtaʾ al-Khurasani—so I think—from Ibn ʿAbbas, from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, who said: “A time will come when the believer’s heart will melt away just as salt dissolves in water.” He was asked, “What will cause that?” ⦗48⦘ He replied, “Because of the rampant evil that he is unable to change.”
٤٦ - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا أَزْهَرُ بْنُ مَرْوَانَ الرَّقَاشِيُّ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَانَ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ الْخُرَاسَانِيِّ، أَحْسَبُهُ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ: «يَأْتِي زَمَانٌ يَذُوبُ فِيهِ قَلْبُ الْمُؤْمِنِ كَمَا يَذُوبُ الْمِلْحُ فِي الْمَاءِ» ، قَالَ: مِمَّ ذَاكَ؟ ⦗٤٨⦘ قَالَ: «مِنَ الْمُنْكَرِ لَا يَسْتَطِيعُ يُغَيِّرُهُ»
