أخبرنا أبو عبد الرحمن محمد بن عبد الله التاجر، ثنا السري بن خزيمة، ثنا أبو نعيم، ثنا بشير بن سلمان، عن سيار أبي الحكم، عن طارق بن شهاب، قال: كنا عند عبد الله بن مسعود رضي الله عنه جلوسا، فجاء آذنه، فقال: قد قامت الصلاة، فقام وقمنا معه، فدخلنا المسجد فرأى الناس ركوعا في مقدم المسجد، فكبر وركع ومشى، وفعلنا مثل ما فعل، قال: فمر رجل مسرع، فقال: السلام عليكم يا أبا عبد الرحمن، فقال: صدق الله وبلغ رسوله صلى الله عليه وسلم، فلما صلينا رجع فولج أهله، وجلسنا في مكانه ننتظره حتى يخرج، فقال بعضنا لبعض: أيكم يسأله؟ قال طارق: أنا أسأله، فسأله طارق، فقال: سلم عليك الرجل فرددت عليه صدق الله وبلغ رسوله صلى الله عليه وسلم، فقال عبد الله: سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، يقول: " إن بين يدي الساعة تسليم الخاصة، وفشو التجارة حتى تعين المرأة زوجها على التجارة، وحتى يخرج الرجل بماله إلى أطراف الأرض فيرجع فيقول: لم أربح شيئا "

Synthesized commentary, isnad grading & cross-references

[Collection & Reference]: Narration #8378 in al-Mustadrak (al-Hakim).

[Isnad Grading & Assessment]: Scholar verdicts : al-Dhahabi (Talkhis): سكت عنه الذهبي في التلخيص.

[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]: Markets drawing close together (taqarub al-aswaq), the universal spread of trade until a woman assists her husband in commerce, the proliferation of writing ('the pen'), and greeting only those one knows.

[Described Characteristics]: The Prophet ﷺ said: 'The Hour will not be established until trials appear, lying increases, markets draw close together, time contracts, and harj increases' (Musnad Ahmad 10724). And: 'Before the Hour is greeting only specific people, the spread of trade until a woman helps her husband in trade... and the appearance of the pen' (Musnad Ahmad 3870, al-Mustadrak 7043).

[Timeline & Context]: Part of the minor signs that spread together with the contraction of time (taqarub al-zaman) and abundance of wealth.

[Prophetic Practice]: Spread the greeting of peace (salam) to both those you know and those you do not know, and keep commerce honest and truthful.
