Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith - Hadith 8.442
Narrated by Mirdas Al Aslami
The Prophet said, “The righteous (pious people will depart (die) in succession one after the other, and there will remain (on the earth) useless people like the useless husk of barley seeds or bad dates.”
“I put my trust in Allah, my Lord and your Lord! There is not a moving creature, but He has a grasp of its forelock. Verily, my Lord is on the straight path. (The truth)”

I’m sure there must be something else to it. I found part of the hadith on two diff. sites.
