Musnad Abi Ya'la 3527 — he said: We used to talk about how the Hour

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: "We used to talk about how the Hour will not be established until the sky stops sending down rain and the earth does not grow vegetation, until there is only one man to look after fifty women, and until a woman passes by a man and he takes hold of her, looks at her and says: 'This woman too once had a man (a guardian or husband).'" Hammad (may Allah have mercy on him) mentioned it like this (as Anas's own words); however, Hammad (may Allah have mercy on him) also narrated it through Thabit (may Allah have mercy on him) from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) without any doubt (as the Prophet's saying), and he also narrated it from Thabit (may Allah have mercy on him), from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him), from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) with the words: "as far as I think" (that is, expressing some hesitation in narrating it as the Prophet's saying).
