In a Hadeeth: “Indeed the old man will say, ‘We were around when people in the past would say: None has the right to be worshipped but Allah.’ Then the matter will intensify, and the situation will worsen, until Allah’s mention will no longer be made on earth: it will be entirely forgotten, and it will not be known on earth. Those (who are around at that time) are the worst of people, and upon them, the Hour will arrive.”
They will be the most evil of people. Doing all possible bad things after already forget that this is someone who will judge them for their action.
And in another narration, the Prophet (PBUH) said, “The Hour will not arrive except upon the most wicked of people.” It is also expressed in another narration: “The most evil of people are those who will be alive when the Hour overtakes them.”
Anas,(may he be blessed) reported that the Prophet (PBUH) said, “People will not increase except in miserliness (along with covetousness); and time does not increase, except in severity (i.e. as time goes by, the situation becomes more and more severe). And the Hour will not arrive except upon the most wicked of people.” This Hadeeth is related by ‘Abdul-‘Azeez ibn Suhaib.
‘Aaisha (may Allah blessed her) said, “The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) entered and said, ‘0 ‘Aaisha, your people are the quickest of my nation to catch up with me.’ When he sat down, I said, ‘0 Messenger of Allah, may Allah make me your sacrifice. Indeed you entered and said words that frightened me’ He (PBUH) said, ‘And what was that?”Aishah (may Allah bless her) said, “You maintain that my people will be the fastest of your nation to catch up with you.”
He (PBUH) said, “Yes.” She said, “And why is
that?” He (PBUH) said, “Death will be attracted to them.” She (may Allah bless her) said, “And how will people be after that?” He (PBUH), said, “Dubban (a kind of locust, whose wings have not grown), the strong will eat the weak until the Hour arrives upon them.”
– By Ibn Khateeb
With the Hadiths explained above, it’s no douth that the most evil of people are alive when the hour comes. Without any doubt, it is believable that this is already happening. In this era, where kidnappers are sucking the blood out of human-like vampires, bandits not relying on stealing money but people’s heads.
Truly, the words of the Prophet (PBUH) are revelations from Allah. May Allah guide us through the dangerous time.
And Allah knows best.
