Sahih Muslim : 148b
Sahih MuslimHadith Number 148b
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " لاَ تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ عَلَى أَحَدٍ يَقُولُ اللَّهُ اللَّهُ " .
Anas Narrated from:
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "The Hour (Resurrection) will not occur as long as anyone says: 'Allah, Allah.'"

Summary of Sahih Muslim Hadith 148b
This narration gives another wording of the hadith about the Hour and saying Allah. Anas reports that the Messenger of Allah (صلى الله عليه وسلم) said the Hour will not occur as long as anyone says, “Allah, Allah.” Compared with the previous wording, this version states the matter positively: the Hour does not occur while that mention remains among anyone. The explanation should stay close to the text. It is about the presence of Allah’s mention and its connection to the timing of the Hour. For people searching for the Allah Allah hadith, this narration teaches that dhikr and recognition of Allah have a weight in the world. It is short, direct, and deeply serious.
What we learn from this hadith
- The Hour will not occur while anyone is saying Allah, Allah.
- The mention of Allah is presented as a meaningful sign before the Hour.
- The narration encourages respect for dhikr without adding details not stated.
- Both wording versions point to the loss of Allah’s mention near the end.
