وَعَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: يُنَادِي مُنَادٍ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ: أَيْنَ أَبْنَاءُ السِتِّينَ؟ وَهُوَ الْعُمُرُ الَّذِي قَالَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى [أَوَلَمْ نُعَمِّرْكُمْ مَا يَتَذَكَّرُ فِيهِ مَن تذكَّرَ وجاءكُم النذير] رَوَاهُ الْبَيْهَقِيّ فِي شعب الْإِيمَان
Ibn 'Abbas Narrated from:
Allah's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "The one who is deputed to announce will call out on the day of resurrection, "Where are the sixty-year olds?" (Let them step forward to give their reckoning.)It is the age of which Allah, the Glorious, says: أَوْلَمْ نَعَجِزْكُمْ مَا يَتَذَكَّرُ فِيهِ مَنْ تَذَكَّرَ وَجَاءَ كُمُ التَّنْذِيرُ [What, did We not grant you a long life enough for one to be admonished who would be admonished? And there came to you the warner...](35: 37) [1]
