Abu Hurairah (RA) reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying: The Last Hour would not come until the women of the tribe of Daus would be seen going round Dhi al-Khalasa (for worship) and Dhi al-Khalasa is a place in Tabala, where there was a temple in which the people of the tribe of Daus used to worship the idol.

Hadith Commentary: Benefits and Issues: The Day of Resurrection will be established upon those people who will be the worst of creation, who will surpass even the people of ignorance (Jahiliyyah) in evil. Therefore, at that time, idol worship will have already begun, and the people of faith will have passed away by then, as is mentioned in the following narration.

Hadith Commentary:
By "swaying their buttocks" is meant that they will circumambulate (perform tawaf) around it. It is understood from this that to perform tawaf around any grave, flag, shrine, or idol other than the Ka'bah is shirk (polytheism).
It is also derived from this hadith that shirk and idol worship will first emerge among women, because women are weak in conviction and quickly adopt matters of disbelief. It is also derived from the hadith that until the Day of Judgment, some portion of Islam will remain, but it will become weak.
As is mentioned in another hadith:
«بدأ الإسلام غريباً وسيعود غريباً» From the land of the Arabs, tawhid (monotheism) spread throughout the world.
Near the Day of Judgment, even there, shirk will begin to occur.
As for other lands, what can be said? Even now, they are filled with shirk and polytheists.
In another narration, it is stated that the Hour will not be established
until the worship of Lat and Uzza is resumed.
In a third narration, it is stated: until several tribes of my ummah begin idol worship.
In the narration of Hakim, it is stated:
until the women of Banu 'Aam do not dance and sway their shoulders at Dhi al-Khalasah.
In one narration, it is stated: until several tribes of my ummah do not join with the polytheists.
May Allah protect us! Our Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) came to this world for the very purpose of establishing Allah's tawhid, breaking the back of shirk, disbelief, and idol worship.
Therefore, whoever eradicates shirk and its places,
and harbors heartfelt hatred for idols, shrines, flags, graves, and domes where shirk is committed—he alone is, in reality, a follower of the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam). As for the rest, everyone claims to be a lover of the Prophet, but when they see open shirk, they do not utter a single word. Such verbal claims will be of no benefit.

Hadith Commentary:
➊
Dhul-Khalasah was the place which was called the Yemeni Ka'bah; it was a very large idol temple of the tribe of Daws. The meaning of the statement of the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) is that the women of the tribe of Daws will become apostates and, while circumambulating the buried idol there, their buttocks will move and, due to the crowd, they will bump into each other—that is, they will become disbelievers and begin worshipping idols.
➋
Since women are weak in conviction and prone to superstitions, and quickly fall prey to innovations and customs, therefore, the resurgence of idolatry in the Arabian Peninsula will begin with the delicate gender, i.e., women. In one narration, it is stated that the Hour will not come until the shoulders of the women of Banu Amir bump against each other at Dhul-Khalasah (and they begin worshipping there).
