Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 12368

وَعَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ قَالَ : سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - عَنِ السَّاعَةِ ، قَالَ : " عِلْمُهَا عِنْدَ رَبِّي وَلَا يُجَلِّيهَا لِوَقْتِهَا إِلَّا هُوَ ، وَلَكِنْ أُخْبِرُكَ بِمَشَارِيطِهَا وَمَا يَكُونُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهَا ، إِنَّ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهَا فِتْنَةً وَهَرْجًا " . قَالُوا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، الْفِتْنَةُ قَدْ عَرَفْنَاهَا ، فَمَا الْهَرْجُ ؟ قَالَ : " بِلِسَانِ الْحَبَشَةِ الْقَتْلُ " . قَالَ : " وَيُلْقَى بَيْنَ النَّاسِ التَّنَاكُرُ فَلَا يَكَادُ أَحَدٌ يَعْرِفُ أَحَدًا " .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَرِجَالُهُ رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ .
Sayyiduna Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked about the Hour, and he said: Its knowledge is with my Lord; He alone knows its exact time. However, I will tell you about its signs and about what will happen before it: before it there will be fitnah (trial) and harj. The people said: We know what fitnah is, but what is meant by harj? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: In the language of Abyssinia it means killing and bloodshed. He (peace and blessings be upon him) also said: "Mutual estrangement will be cast among people, such that no one will recognise anyone else."
Ahmad recorded it, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih.
