4047. It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "The Hour will not begin until wealth becomes abundant and tribulations appear, and Harj increases." They said: "What is Harj, O Messenger of Allāh?" He said: "Killing, killing, killing," three times. (Sahih)

Arabic text

4047 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَرْوَانَ الْعُثْمَانِيُّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، عَنِ الْعَلَاءِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: «لَا تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ حَتَّى يَفِيضَ الْمَالُ، وَتَظْهَرَ الْفِتَنُ، وَيَكْثُرَ الْهَرْجُ» ، قَالُوا: وَمَا الْهَرْجُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ؟ قَالَ: «الْقَتْلُ، الْقَتْلُ، الْقَتْلُ» ثَلَاثًا

Commentary

Abundance of wealth is not a proof or evidence of tranquility and peace of mind if there is no faith and piety. Tribulations here might refer to many types of partialities that lead to fight and murder. They might even refer to the matters that are harmful for one's faith, especially when people are away from the religious knowledge.
