Hadith 37:276
Hawdha ibn Khalifa narrated to us, 'Awf narrated to us, from al-Hasan, from Usayd ibn al-Mutashammis, who said: We were with Abu Musa, and he said: "Shall I not narrate to you a hadith that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) used to narrate to us?" We said: "Yes." He said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "The Hour will not be established until *al-harj* increases." We said: "O Messenger of Allah, and what is *al-harj*?" He said: "Killing, killing." We said: "More than what we kill today?" He said: "It is not the killing of the disbelievers, but rather a man will kill his neighbor, his brother, and his cousin." He said: We became silent, to the point that none of us could show a clear expression. He said: We said: "And will we have our intellects on that day?" He said: "The intellects of most of the people of that time will be snatched away, and there will remain the dregs of the people; most of them will think that they are upon something, while they are upon nothing." "By the One in Whose hand is my soul, I have feared that these matters might overtake me and you. And if they overtake us, I have no way out of them for myself or for you, except that we exit them just as we entered them."
حدثنا هوذة بن خليفة حدثنا عوف عن الحسن عن أسيد بن المتشمس قال كنا عند أبي موسى فقال ألا أحدثكم حديثا كان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يحدثناه قلنا بلى قال قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم لا تقوم الساعة حتى يكثر الهرج فقلنا يا رسول الله وما الهرج قال القتل القتل قلنا أكثر مما نقتل اليوم قال ليس بقتلكم الكفار ولكن يقتل ( ( ( بقتل ) ) ) الرجل جاره وأخاه وبن عمه قال فأبلسنا حتى ما يبدي أحد منا عن واضحة قال قلنا ومعنا عقولنا يومئذ قال تنزع عقول أكثر أهل ذلك الزمان ويخلف هنات من الناس يحسب أكثرهم أنهم على شيء وليسوا على شيء والذي نفسي بيده لقد خشيت أن يدركني وإياكم الأمور ولئن أدركتنا ما لي ولكم منها مخرج إلا أن نخرج منها كما دخلناه
