#3012 Makhlad ibn Malik informed us, from Hajjaj ibn Muhammad, from Layth ibn Sa'd, from Mu'awiyah ibn Salih, from Abu al-Zahiriyyah, who attributed the tradition [to the Prophet], that Allah said: "I shall spread knowledge at the end of time until the man and the woman, the slave and the free, and the young and the old know it. So when I have done that with them, I shall hold them accountable for My right over them."
