وَعَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: " يَخْرُجُ فِي آخِرِ الزَّمَانِ رِجَالٌ يَخْتِلُونَ الدُّنْيَا بِالدِّينِ يَلْبَسُونَ لِلنَّاسِ جُلُودَ الضَّأْنِ مِنَ اللِّينِ أَلْسِنَتُهُمْ أَحْلَى مِنَ السُّكَّرِ ⦗١٤٦٤⦘ وَقُلُوبُهُمْ قُلُوبُ الذِّئَابِ يَقُولُ اللَّهُ: «أَبِي يَغْتَرُّونَ أَمْ عليَّ يجترؤون؟ فَبِي حَلَفْتُ لَأَبْعَثَنَّ عَلَى أُولَئِكَ مِنْهُمْ فِتْنَةً تدع الْحَلِيم فيهم حيران» . رَوَاهُ التِّرْمِذِيّ
AbuHurayrah Narrated from:
Allah's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "In the final times, there will appear men who would cheat in the garb of religion to further worldly ambitions. They will wear hides of sheep for people to see (them) as meek and their tongues will be sweeter than sugar, but their hearts will be like hearts of wolves. Allah will ask, 'Do they show arrogance to Me, or are they daring against Me? I swear by Myself that I shall send to them a trial that will leave the most forbearing among them non-pulsed.” [1] (Leaders will arise among them who will be cruel to them and create problems for them.)
