Silsilah as-Sahihah 3602 — Example of the Nearness of the Hour

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man asked the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him): "When will the Hour (Day of Judgment) be established?" At that time, a child from the Ansar named Muhammad was present with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) replied to him: "If this child lives, it is possible that the Hour will be established before he becomes old." This hadith is also narrated from Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her).
