حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ حَنْظَلَةَ بْنَ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ، سَمِعْتُ سَالِمَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللهِ، يَقُولُ:، ، مَا أَدْرِي كَمْ رَأَيْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، قَائِمًا فِي السُّوقِ يَقُولُ: " يُقْبَضُ الْعِلْمُ، وَتَظْهَرُ الْفِتَنُ، وَيَكْثُرُ الْهَرْجُ ". قَالَ: قِيلَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، وَمَا الْهَرْجُ؟ قَالَ: بِيَدِهِ هَكَذَا، وَحَرَّفَهَا (١)،

Salim says: I do not remember how many times I have heard Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) standing in the market saying: Knowledge will be taken away, tribulations will appear, and killing (harj) will increase. The companions (may Allah be pleased with them) asked: O Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), what is meant by harj? The Prophet (ﷺ) gestured with his hand (killing, killing).
