وَقَالَ أَبُو عَوَانَةَ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ، عَنِ الأَشْعَرِيِّ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ لِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ تَعْلَمُ الأَيَّامَ الَّتِي ذَكَرَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَيَّامَ الْهَرْجِ‏.‏ نَحْوَهُ‏.‏ قَالَ ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ ‏ "‏ مِنْ شِرَارِ النَّاسِ مَنْ تُدْرِكُهُمُ السَّاعَةُ وَهُمْ أَحْيَاءٌ ‏"‏‏.‏

Ibn Mas`ud added: I heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) saying; (It will be) from among the most wicked people who will be living at the time when the Hour will be established

Scholarly Commentary & Context

Synthesized commentary, isnad grading & cross-references

[Collection & Reference]: Narration #7067 in Sahih al-Bukhari.

[Authenticity & Isnad]: Authentic (Sahih) by consensus of the scholars through its inclusion in the Sahihayn.

[Core Subject]: Al-harj means much killing. The Prophet ﷺ said it will increase before the Hour.

[Described Characteristics]: Killing becomes so common that the killer does not know why he killed and the victim does not know why he was killed.

[Timeline & Context]: It spreads among people over time, alongside other signs.

[Prophetic Practice]: In times of fitnah the Prophet ﷺ advised: be like the better of Adam's two sons, the one who is killed rather than the one who kills.

[Core Subject]: The Hour will not come while anyone on earth still says 'Allah, Allah'. After the believers are taken by a gentle wind, only the worst of people remain, and the Hour comes on them.

[Described Characteristics]: The narrations describe people who no longer know good from evil, who live like animals and mate openly in the streets. Shaytan comes to them and leads them back to idol worship. Their provision still reaches them and their lives look comfortable, until the Trumpet is blown.

[Timeline & Context]: This is the very end: after Isa (AS) and the believers of his time have passed, after the gentle wind, and just before the Trumpet.

[Prophetic Practice]: Keep the remembrance of Allah alive in your home. As long as His name is remembered, the end has not come.
