English translation
6808. Anas said: I will narrate to you a narration which nobody will narrate to you after me. I heard that from the Prophet ﷺ. I heard the Prophet ﷺ saying, "The Hour will not be established," or said, "From among the portents of the Hour (are the following): 1. Religious knowledge will be taken away (by the death of religious scholars). 2. (Religious) ignorance will prevail. 3. Drinking of alcoholic drinks (will be very common). 4. There will be prevalence of open illegal sexual intercourse. 5. And men will decrease in number while women will increase so much so that, for fifty women there will be only one man to look after them." (See H. 81, 1036)
