حدثنا عبيدة، حدثني منصور، عن مجاهد، عن طاوس، عن ابن عباس، قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، يوم فتح مكة: " إن هذا البلد حرام، حرمه الله يوم خلق السماوات والأرض، فهو حرام، حرمه الله إلى يوم القيامة، ما أحل لأحد فيه القتل غيري، ولا يحل لأحد بعدي فيه حتى تقوم الساعة، وما أحل لي فيه إلا ساعة من النهار، فهو حرام حرمه الله عز وجل إلى أن تقوم الساعة، ولا يعضد شوكه، ولا يختلى خلاه، ولا ينفر صيده، ولا تلتقط لقطته إلا لمعرف "، قال: فقال العباس: - وكان من أهل البلد، قد علم الذي لا بد لهم منه - إلا الإذخر يا رسول الله، فإنه لا بد لهم منه، فإنه للقبور والبيوت، قال: فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: " إلا الإذخر "

[Collection & Reference]: Narration #2353 in Musnad Ahmad.

[Core Subject]: The Hour (al-Sa'ah) is the moment this world ends. Everything alive dies, the universe is undone, and then comes the resurrection. The Quran mentions it again and again, and the Prophet ﷺ spoke of the signs that come before it.

[Described Characteristics]: It comes suddenly, while people are busy with their lives: one man is selling cloth, another is fixing his water trough, another is lifting food to his mouth, and none of them finishes. Before it come signs, small ones that spread slowly and ten great ones that come close together.

[Timeline & Context]: Only Allah knows. The Quran says its knowledge is with Him alone, and when Jibril asked the Prophet ﷺ, he answered: the one asked knows no more than the one asking. Any date or countdown contradicts this.

[Prophetic Practice]: A man asked, 'When is the Hour?' The Prophet ﷺ asked back, 'What have you prepared for it?' The real question is our own preparation, not the date.

[Core Subject]: Yawm al-Qiyamah, the Day of Resurrection, is the Day when all people stand before Allah to be judged. It has many names in the Quran: the Day of Recompense, the Day of Reckoning, the Overwhelming, the Inevitable.

[Described Characteristics]: A nursing mother forgets her baby, a pregnant woman miscarries, and people look drunk though they are not. A person flees from his brother, mother, father, wife and children; each has enough worry of his own. Allah speaks to each person directly with no interpreter between them.

[Timeline & Context]: It begins with the second blow of the Trumpet and moves through its stages: resurrection, gathering, intercession, reckoning and the scales, the Pool and the Bridge, and then Paradise or Hell.

[Prophetic Practice]: 'A person's feet will not move on that Day until he is asked about four things: his life and how he spent it, his knowledge and what he did with it, his wealth, where he earned it and how he spent it, and his body and how he used it.'

[Geographical Locations]: Mentioned in narration : Makkah.
