وُجُوهِهِمْ، قَالَ: اعْمَلُوا وَأَبْشِرُوا فَوَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ مَا أَنْتُمْ فِي النَّاسِ إِلَّا كَالرَّقْمَةِ فِي ذِرَاعِ الدَّابَّةِ، أَوْ كَالشَّامَةِ فِي جَنْبِ الْبَعِيرِ، وَإِنَّكُمْ مَعَ خَلِيقَتَيْنِ مَا كَانَتَا مَعَ شَيْءٍ قَطُّ إِلَّا كَثُرَتَاهُ: يَأْجُوجُ وَمَأْجُوجُ، وَمَنْ هَلَكَ يَعْنِي: وَمَنْ كَفَرَ مِنْ بَنِي إِبْلِيسَ، وَتُكْمَلُ الْعِدَّةُ مِنَ الْمُنَافِقِينَ ".
