حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سِنَانٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا فُلَيْحُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ ، حَدَّثَنَا هِلَالُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِذَا ضُيِّعَتِ الْأَمَانَةُ ، فَانْتَظِرِ السَّاعَةَ " ، قَالَ : كَيْفَ إِضَاعَتُهَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ؟ قَالَ : " إِذَا أُسْنِدَ الْأَمْرُ إِلَى غَيْرِ أَهْلِهِ فَانْتَظِرِ السَّاعَةَ " .
Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah's Apostle said, "When honesty is lost, then wait for the Hour." It was asked, "How will honesty be lost, O Allah's Apostle?" He said, "When authority is given to those who do not deserve it, then wait for the Hour."

Hadith 6497
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ ، أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ وَهْبٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا حُذَيْفَةُ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَدِيثَيْنِ رَأَيْتُ أَحَدَهُمَا وَأَنَا أَنْتَظِرُ الْآخَرَ ، حَدَّثَنَا : " أَنَّ الْأَمَانَةَ نَزَلَتْ فِي جَذْرِ قُلُوبِ الرِّجَالِ ، ثُمَّ عَلِمُوا مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ ، ثُمَّ عَلِمُوا مِنَ السُّنَّةِ ، وَحَدَّثَنَا عَنْ رَفْعِهَا ، قَالَ : يَنَامُ الرَّجُلُ النَّوْمَةَ ، فَتُقْبَضُ الْأَمَانَةُ مِنْ قَلْبِهِ ، فَيَظَلُّ أَثَرُهَا مِثْلَ أَثَرِ الْوَكْتِ ، ثُمَّ يَنَامُ النَّوْمَةَ ، فَتُقْبَضُ فَيَبْقَى أَثَرُهَا مِثْلَ الْمَجْلِ كَجَمْرٍ دَحْرَجْتَهُ عَلَى رِجْلِكَ ، فَنَفِطَ فَتَرَاهُ مُنْتَبِرًا وَلَيْسَ فِيهِ شَيْءٌ ، فَيُصْبِحُ النَّاسُ يَتَبَايَعُونَ فَلَا يَكَادُ أَحَدٌ يُؤَدِّي الْأَمَانَةَ ، فَيُقَالُ : إِنَّ فِي بَنِي فُلَانٍ رَجُلًا أَمِينًا ، وَيُقَالُ لِلرَّجُلِ : مَا أَعْقَلَهُ وَمَا أَظْرَفَهُ وَمَا أَجْلَدَهُ وَمَا فِي قَلْبِهِ مِثْقَالُ حَبَّةِ خَرْدَلٍ مِنْ إِيمَانٍ ، وَلَقَدْ أَتَى عَلَيَّ زَمَانٌ وَمَا أُبَالِي أَيَّكُمْ بَايَعْتُ لَئِنْ كَانَ مُسْلِمًا رَدَّهُ عَلَيَّ الْإِسْلَامُ ، وَإِنْ كَانَ نَصْرَانِيًّا رَدَّهُ عَلَيَّ سَاعِيهِ ، فَأَمَّا الْيَوْمَ فَمَا كُنْتُ أُبَايِعُ إِلَّا فُلَانًا وَفُلَانًا " ، قَالَ الفِرَبْرِيُّ ، قَال أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ : حَدَّثْتُ أَبَا عَبْد اللَّهِ ، فَقَالَ : سَمِعْتُ أَحْمَدَ بْنَ عَاصِم ، يَقُولُ : أَبَا عُبَيْدٍ ، يَقُولً : قَالَ الأَصْمَعِيُّ ، وَأَبُو عَمْرٍو ، وَغَيْرُهُمَا ، جَذْرُ قُلُوبِ الرَّجَالِ الْجَذْرُ الأَصْلُ مِنْ كُلِّ شَيءٍ الوَكْتُ أَثَرُ الشَّيْءِ الْيَسِيرُ مِنْهُ ، وَالْمَجْلُ أَثَرُ الْعَمَلِ فِي الكَفِّ إذَا غَلُظَ .
Narrated Hudhaifa: Allah's Apostle narrated to us two narrations, one of which I have seen (happening) and I am waiting for the other. He narrated that honesty was preserved in the roots of the hearts of men (in the beginning) and then they learnt it (honesty) from the Qur'an, and then they learnt it from the (Prophet's) Sunna (tradition). He also told us about its disappearance, saying, "A man will go to sleep whereupon honesty will be taken away from his heart, and only its trace will remain, resembling the traces of fire. He then will sleep whereupon the remainder of the honesty will also be taken away (from his heart) and its trace will resemble a blister which is raised over the surface of skin, when an ember touches one's foot; and in fact, this blister does not contain anything. So there will come a day when people will deal in business with each other but there will hardly be any trustworthy persons among them. Then it will be said that in such-and-such a tribe there is such-and-such person who is honest, and a man will be admired for his intelligence, good manners and strength, though indeed he will not have belief equal to a mustard seed in his heart." The narrator added: There came upon me a time when I did not mind dealing with anyone of you, for if he was a Muslim, his religion would prevent him from cheating; and if he was a Christian, his Muslim ruler would prevent him from cheating; but today I cannot deal except with so-and-so and so-and-so. (See Hadith No. 208, Vol. 9)

Narrated `Abdullah bin `Umar: I heard Allah's Apostle saying, "People are just like camels, out of one hundred, one can hardly find a single camel suitable to ride."
