باب بَيَانِ مَعْنٰي قَوْلِهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : «عَلٰي رَأْسِ مِائَةِ سَنَةٍ لَّا يَبْقٰي نَفْسٌ مَّنْفُوسَةٌ مِّمَّنْ هُوَ مَوْجُودٌ الْآنَ »Chapter: The Meaning Of The Words Of The Prophet (SAW): "After One Hundred Years There Will Be No Soul Left Alive That Is Living Now"
حَدَّثَنِي هَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، وَحَجَّاجُ بْنُ الشَّاعِرِ ، قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ ، قَالَ : قَالَ ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ : أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، يَقُولُ : سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، يَقُولُ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَمُوتَ بِشَهْرٍ : " تَسْأَلُونِي عَنِ السَّاعَةِ ، وَإِنَّمَا عِلْمُهَا عِنْدَ اللَّهِ ، وَأُقْسِمُ بِاللَّهِ مَا عَلَى الْأَرْضِ مِنْ نَفْسٍ مَنْفُوسَةٍ تَأْتِي عَلَيْهَا مِائَةُ سَنَةٍ " .
Jabir b. 'Abdullah reported:I heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying this one month before his death: You asked me about the Last Hour whereas its knowledge is with Allah. I, however, take an oath and say that none upon the earth, the created beings (from amongst my Companions), would survive at the end of one hundred years.

Hadith Commentary: Benefits and Issues: The meaning of "after the return from the Battle of Tabuk" is not that this question was asked immediately afterwards; rather, it simply means that the question was asked sometime after that event. From the narration of Jabir radi Allahu anhu, it is understood that this occurred in the last days of the Prophet's sallallahu alayhi wa sallam life. In response, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam did not inform about the time of the Day of Judgment for the entire world; rather, he mentioned the "Day of Judgment" (death) for those present at that time, indicating that one should be concerned about one's own end.
