People will lose their minds…

People will lose their minds…


حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُوسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى الله عَليْهِ وسَلَّمَ : إِنَّ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ السَّاعَةِ لَهَرْجًا ، قَالَ : قُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، مَا الْهَرْجُ ؟ قَالَ : الْقَتْلُ ، فَقَالَ بَعْضُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، إِنَّا نَقْتُلُ الآنَ فِي الْعَامِ الْوَاحِدِ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ كَذَا وَكَذَا ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى الله عَليْهِ وسَلَّمَ : لَيْسَ بِقَتْلِ الْمُشْرِكِينَ ، وَلَكِنْ يَقْتُلُ بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا ، حَتَّى يَقْتُلَ الرَّجُلُ جَارَهُ ، وَابْنَ عَمِّهِ وَذَا قَرَابَتِهِ ، فَقَالَ بَعْضُ الْقَوْمِ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، وَمَعَنَا عُقُولُنَا ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى الله عَليْهِ وسَلَّمَ : لاَ ، تُنْزَعُ عُقُولُ أَكْثَرِ ذَلِكَ الزَّمَانِ ، وَيَخْلُفُ لَهُ هَبَاءٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ لاَ عُقُولَ لَهُمْ.

Abu Musa (radi Allahu anhu) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (sallAllahu alayhi wa salam) said: Before the Hour comes there will be Harj,” I asked: “O Messenger of Allah what is Harj” He said: “Killing.” Some of the Muslims said: “O Messenger of Allah, currently we kill such and such number of pagans in a year.” The Messenger (sallAllahu alayhi wa salam) said: “That killing won’t be like killing the idolaters, instead you will kill one another, until a man will kill his neighbor, his cousin, and close relatives. Some people said: “O Messenger of Allah will we be in our right minds during that time.

The Messenger (sallAllahu alayhi wa salam) said: “No, reason and intellect will be taken away from most of the people at that time. The people living during that time would have no intellect and be insignificant.”

Collected by Ibn Majah (3959) graded as being authentic by Shaykh Al-Albani.

Benefits for this topic:
This hadeeth is among the hadeeth that prove Prophet Muhammad’s (sallAlahu alayhi wa salam) Prophet hood. He spoke about something during his lifetime, which is happening today.

This Hadeeth has only been collected by Ibn Majah, and isn’t narrated in the other 5 books.

As-Sindi said:”reason and intellect will be taken away from most of the people at that time…” This will occur due to the greed and the ignorance of insignificant people. People who are nobody, and not worth mentioning. Included in this are the dregs of a society. (exp Ibn Majah)
