Original Arabic

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ، وَعَفَّانُ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ حِطَّانَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ الرَّقَاشِيِّ، عَنِ الْأَشْعَرِيِّ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " إِنَّ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ السَّاعَةِ الْهَرْجَ ". قَالُوا: وَمَا الْهَرْجُ؟ قَالَ: " الْقَتْلُ ". قَالُوا: أَكْثَرُ مِمَّا نَقْتُلُ، إِنَّا لَنَقْتُلُ كُلَّ عَامٍ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ سَبْعِينَ أَلْفًا، قَالَ: " إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ بِقَتْلِكُمُ الْمُشْرِكِينَ، وَلَكِنْ قَتْلُ بَعْضِكُمْ بَعْضًا "، قَالُوا: وَمَعَنَا عُقُولُنَا يَوْمَئِذٍ؟ قَالَ: " إِنَّهُ لَتُنْزَعُ عُقُولُ أَهْلِ ذَلِكَ الزَّمَانِ، وَيُخَلَّفُ لَهُ هَبَاءٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ، يَحْسِبُ أَكْثَرُهُمْ أَنَّهُمْ عَلَى شَيْءٍ، وَلَيْسُوا عَلَى شَيْءٍ " قَالَ عَفَّانُ: فِي حَدِيثِهِ قَالَ أَبُو مُوسَى: " وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ مَا أَجِدُ لِي وَلَكُمْ مِنْهَا مَخْرَجًا، إِنْ أَدْرَكَتْنِي (١) وَإِيَّاكُمْ، إِلَّا أَنْ نَخْرُجَ مِنْهَا كَمَا دَخَلْنَا فِيهَا لَمْ (٢) نُصِبْ مِنْهَا دَمًا وَلَا مَالًا " (٣)، ، . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .، ،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) said: Before the Day of Judgment, "Harj" will occur. People asked, "What is meant by 'Harj'?" The Holy Prophet (ﷺ) said: Killing. People asked: Even more than the number we kill? We used to kill more than seventy thousand people every year! The Holy Prophet (ﷺ) said: It does not mean killing the polytheists, rather it means killing each other. People asked: Will our intellects be with us at that time? The Holy Prophet (ﷺ) said: The intellects of the people of that time will be taken away, and such foolish people will remain who will think they are following a religion, whereas they will not be on any religion. Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) says: By the One in Whose hand is my soul, if that time comes, I will not find any way out for myself or for you except that we come out of it just as we entered it, and do not become involved in anyone's killing or wealth.
