Al-Lu'lu Wal-MarjanHadith Number 1711
حديث أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ، قَالَ: يَتَقَارَبُ الزَّمَان، وَيَنْقُصُ الْعَمَلُ، وَيُلْقَى الشُّحُّ، وَتَظْهَرُ الْفِتَنُ، وَيَكْثُرُ الْهَرْجُ قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَيُّمَ هُوَ قَالَ: القَتْلُ، الْقَتْلُ.
Abu Hurairah Narrated from:
The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said, “Time will pass rapidly [1], good deeds will decrease, miserliness will be thrown (in the hearts of the people), Al-Fitn (trials and afflictions etc.) will appear and there will be much Al-Harj.” They asked, “Allâh’s Messenger! What is Al-Harj ?” He said, “Killing! Killing!” ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 184, Vol 9 )
[1] Because of indulging in the pleasures of the world and forgetting their duties towards Allâh.
