It was narrated that Hudhaifah said: We were sitting with Umar and he said: Which of you has remembered a Hadith from the Messenger of Allah concerning Fitnah? Hudhaifah said: I said: I have. He said: You are very bold. He said: How? He said: I heard him say: The fitnah of a man with regard to his family; his children and his neigbors are expiated by his prayers; fasts; charity and enjoining what is good and forbidding what is evil. Umar said: This is not what I meant; rather I meant that which moves like the waves of the sea. Hudhaifah said: Dont worry about it; O Commander of the Believers! For there is a closed door between you and them. Umar said: Will that door be broken or opened? I said: No; it will be broken. Umar said: Then it will never be closed. We asked Hudhaifah: Did Umar know what that door meant? He said: Yes; just as he knows that there will be night before morning; because I narrated to him a Hadith in which there are no errors. We were afraid to ask him who the door was; so we said to Masruq: Ask him. He said: Umar.
