وَعَنْهُ أَيْضًا عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: ”يَأْتِي عَلَى النَّاسِ زَمَانٌ يُغَرْبَلُونَ فِيهِ غَرْبَلَةً، يَبْقَى مِنْهُمْ حُثَالَةٌ قَدْ مَرِجَتْ عُهُودُهُمْ وَأَمَانَاتُهُمْ وَاخْتَلَفُوا فَكَانُوا هَكَذَا“، وَشَبَّكَ بَيْنَ أَصَابِعِهِ، قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ! فَمَا الْمَخْرَجُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ؟ قَالَ: ”تَأْخُذُونَ مَا تَعْرِفُونَ وَتَدَعُونَ مَا تُنْكِرُونَ وَتُقْبِلُونَ عَلَى أَمْرِ خَاصَّتِكُمْ وَتَدَعُونَ أَمْرَ عَامَّتِكُمْ“
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "A time will come upon the people when they will be scrutinized in such a way that only the lowly and worthless people will remain. Deceit will enter into their promises and trusts, and they will differ among themselves and become like this." The narrator interlaced his fingers. The Companions said: "O Messenger of Allah! What will be the way out of such circumstances?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Do good deeds, avoid evil deeds, pay attention to specific people, and leave the affairs of the common people."
