23 - Some of the minor signs of the Last Hour

عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رضي الله عنه  قَالَ: قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: «لا تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ حَتَّى يُقْبَضَ العِلْمُ، وَتَكْثُرَ الزَّلازِلُ، وَيَتَقَارَبَ الزَّمَانُ، وَتَظْهَرَ الفِتَنُ، وَيَكْثُرَ الهَرْجُ - وَهُوَ القَتْلُ القَتْلُ - حَتَّى يَكْثُرَ فِيكُمُ المَالُ فَيَفِيضَ»

Abu Hurayrah narrated that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: 

The Last Hour shall not arrive until knowledge has been withdrawn; Earthquakes increase; Time draws closer;  Temptations will be prevalent;  Homicide – which is murder, murder – increases; And your wealth becomes plentiful, too plentiful.

If only, when the misfortune decreed by Us befell them, they humbled themselves! Rather, their hearts were hardened and Satan made their deeds seem goodly to them. (43) Then, when they had clean forgotten what they had been reminded of, We threw open to them the gates of all good things, until just when they were rejoicing in what they had been granted, We suddenly took them to task; and they were plunged into utter despair.

(6: 43-44)

We never send signs for any purpose other than to give warning.

(17: 59)
