The ruling on the hadith: The best fortress is twenty milking cows
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is there a hadith in which the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said that the best fortress is twenty milking cows, and what is its deficiency if found?
Answer:
No, I have not heard this wording. It says: "The caliphate after me will be thirty years, then it will become a tyrannical kingship." The caliphate after me will be thirty years, the caliphate of the Rightly Guided Caliphs. They said, and they also completed it with the caliphate of al-Hasan ibn 'Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) for six months, and the caliphate of 'Umar ibn 'Abd al-'Aziz (may Allah have mercy on him). That is, the caliphate of 'Umar ibn 'Abd al-'Aziz completes the caliphate of the Rightly Guided Caliphs to thirty years. Allah knows best, and may Allah send prayers and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and his Companions.
