Sayyiduna Adi bin Hatim (may Allah be pleased with him) told them that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Very soon a time will come upon you when a woman will travel (alone) between Makkah and al-Hirah, and no one will even take hold of her nose-rein. And very soon a time will come upon one of you when a man will walk about with a handful of gold and will find no one to accept it. And every one of you will be presented before Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, with no interpreter between him and Him. So whoever is able to protect himself from the Fire, even if only with a piece of a date, let him do so."
