حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ , حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ , حَدَّثَنَا عَوْفٌ , عَنْ الْحَسَنِ , حَدَّثَنَا أَسِيدُ بْنُ الْمُتَشَمِّسِ , قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُوسَى , حَدَّثَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِنَّ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ السَّاعَةِ لَهَرْجًا " , قَالَ : قُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ , مَا الْهَرْجُ ؟ قَالَ : " الْقَتْلُ " , فَقَالَ بَعْضُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ , إِنَّا نَقْتُلُ الْآنَ فِي الْعَامِ الْوَاحِدِ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ كَذَا وَكَذَا , فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " لَيْسَ بِقَتْلِ الْمُشْرِكِينَ , وَلَكِنْ يَقْتُلُ بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا , حَتَّى يَقْتُلَ الرَّجُلُ جَارَهُ , وَابْنَ عَمِّهِ , وَذَا قَرَابَتِهِ " , فَقَالَ بَعْضُ الْقَوْمِ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ , وَمَعَنَا عُقُولُنَا ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ , فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " لَا تُنْزَعُ عُقُولُ أَكْثَرِ ذَلِكَ الزَّمَانِ , وَيَخْلُفُ لَهُ هَبَاءٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ لَا عُقُولَ لَهُمْ " , ثُمَّ قَالَ الْأَشْعَرِيُّ : وَايْمُ اللَّهِ إِنِّي لَأَظُنُّهَا مُدْرِكَتِي , وَإِيَّاكُمْ وَايْمُ اللَّهِ مَا لِي وَلَكُمْ مِنْهَا مَخْرَجٌ , إِنْ أَدْرَكَتْنَا فِيمَا عَهِدَ إِلَيْنَا نَبِيُّنَا صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ , إِلَّا أَنْ نَخْرُجَ كَمَا دَخَلْنَا فِيهَا .
´Abu Musa narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:` “Before the Hour comes there will be Harj.” I said: “O Messenger of Allah, what is Harj?” He said: “Killing.” Some of the Muslims said: “O Messenger of Allah, now we kill such and such a number of idolaters in one year.” The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “That will not be like killing the idolaters, rather you will kill one another, until a man will kill his neighbor and son of the cousin and a relative.” Some of the people said: “O Messenger of Allah, will we be in our right minds that day?” The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “No, reason will be taken away from most of the people at that time, and there will be left the insignificant people who have no reason.”

Explanation & Benefits
Maulana Ataullah Sajid
Benefits and Issues:
(1)
Killing among Muslims over trivial matters is a sign of the Day of Judgment.
This is such an evil trait
which, until the recent past, did not exist in such abundance, even though many other tribulations were present.
(2)
The purpose of forewarning about a tribulation is that every Muslim should strive harder to avoid it; therefore, it is the duty of the scholars and rulers to reflect upon its causes and strive for its prevention.
(3)
A Muslim should act with understanding and should not make differences a justification for bloodshed.
(4)
The differences among the noble Companions (radi Allahu anhum) were based on sincerity and due to misunderstanding.
Therefore, it became possible for them to reform themselves, free from the influence of the propaganda of misguided people.
Due to the selflessness and prudence of Hasan (radi Allahu anhu), the Muslims became united once again.
(5)
When discussing the differences among the noble Companions (radi Allahu anhum), it is not permissible to adopt a tone that is contrary to respect regarding any Companion.
