\nNarrated Abu Huraira:\n \n\nThe Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Between the two blowing of the trumpet there will be forty." The people said, "O \nAbu Huraira! Forty days?" I refused to reply. They said, "Forty years?" I refused to reply and added: \nEverything of the human body will decay except the coccyx bone (of the tail) and from that bone \nAllah will reconstruct the whole body.\n

حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ حَفْصٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي قَالَ، حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا صَالِحٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏\n"‏ بَيْنَ النَّفْخَتَيْنِ أَرْبَعُونَ ‏"‏‏.‏ قَالُوا يَا أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ أَرْبَعُونَ يَوْمًا قَالَ أَبَيْتُ‏.‏ قَالَ أَرْبَعُونَ سَنَةً قَالَ أَبَيْتُ‏.‏ قَالَ أَرْبَعُونَ شَهْرًا‏.‏ قَالَ أَبَيْتُ، وَيَبْلَى كُلُّ شَىْءٍ مِنَ الإِنْسَانِ إِلاَّ عَجْبَ ذَنَبِهِ، فِيهِ يُرَكَّبُ الْخَلْقُ‏.‏
