Hadith 23306

حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بنُ أَبي بكَيْرٍ , حَدَّثَنَا عُبيْدُ اللَّهِ بنُ إِيَادِ بنِ لَقِيطٍ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ أَبي يَذْكُرُ ، عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ ، قَالَ : سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنِ السَّاعَةِ ، فَقَالَ : " عِلْمُهَا عِنْدَ رَبي ، لَا يُجَلِّيهَا لِوَقْتِهَا إِلَّا هُوَ ، وَلَكِنْ أُخْبرُكُمْ بمَشَارِيطِهَا وَمَا يَكُونُ بيْنَ يَدَيْهَا ، إِنَّ بيْنَ يَدَيْهَا فِتْنَةً وَهَرْجًا " ، قَالُوا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، الْفِتْنَةُ قَدْ عَرَفْنَاهَا ، فَالْهَرْجُ مَا هُوَ ؟ قَالَ : " بلِسَانِ الْحَبشَةِ : الْقَتْلُ ، وَيُلْقَى بيْنَ النَّاسِ التَّنَاكُرُ ، فَلَا يَكَادُ أَحَدٌ أَنْ يَعْرِفَ أَحَدًا " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked about the Day of Judgment. The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Its knowledge is with my Lord; He alone will manifest it at its appointed time. However, I will tell you some of its signs and what will happen before it. Before the Day of Judgment, there will be tribulations and "Harj." The people asked, "O Messenger of Allah! We understand the meaning of tribulation, but what is meant by Harj?" The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: In the language of the people of Habasha, it means killing. And estrangement will spread among people, and no one will recognize anyone.
