Arabic hadith text
حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُوسَى، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ شَقِيقٍ، قَالَ كُنْتُ مَعَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ وَأَبِي مُوسَى فَقَالاَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم " إِنَّ بَيْنَ يَدَىِ السَّاعَةِ لأَيَّامًا يَنْزِلُ فِيهَا الْجَهْلُ، وَيُرْفَعُ فِيهَا الْعِلْمُ، وَيَكْثُرُ فِيهَا الْهَرْجُ، وَالْهَرْجُ الْقَتْلُ ".
Translation
Shaqīq said: “I was with ʿAbd Allāh and Abū Mūsā, and they both said that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, had said: ‘Before the Hour, there will be days in which ignorance descends, knowledge is taken away, and al-harj increases.’ Al-harj means killing.”
