Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا لَيْثٌ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ مِينَاءَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ وَاللَّهِ لَيَنْزِلَنَّ ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ حَكَمًا عَادِلاً فَلَيَكْسِرَنَّ الصَّلِيبَ وَلَيَقْتُلَنَّ الْخِنْزِيرَ وَلَيَضَعَنَّ الْجِزْيَةَ وَلَتُتْرَكَنَّ الْقِلاَصُ فَلاَ يُسْعَى عَلَيْهَا وَلَتَذْهَبَنَّ الشَّحْنَاءُ وَالتَّبَاغُضُ وَالتَّحَاسُدُ وَلَيَدْعُوَنَّ إِلَى الْمَالِ فَلاَ يَقْبَلُهُ أَحَدٌ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Translation

Qutayba ibn Sa'id narrated to us: al-Layth narrated to us, from Sa'id ibn Abi Sa'id, from 'Ata' ibn Mina', from Abu Hurayra, who said the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: By Allah, the son of Mary will surely descend as a just judge. He will surely break the cross, kill swine, and set aside the jizya. Young she-camels will be left unattended, with no one seeking them out; hostility, mutual hatred, and envy will disappear. He will call people to accept wealth, but no one will accept it.

Translation notes
  • The phrase about the young she-camels is kept close to the Arabic; its practical implication is that they will be left without anyone to tend or claim them.
