English translation

2205. Anas bin Mālik said: "I shall narrate a Hadīth to you that I heard from the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, which none after me shall narrate that he heard it from the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ." [He said:] "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'Indeed, among the signs of the Hour are that knowledge shall be raised up, ignorance shall be rampant, Zinā shall abound, Khamr shall be drunk, women shall increase and men shall decrease such that fifty women will be supported by one man.' (Saḥīh) [Abū 'Eisā said:] There are narrations on this topic from Abū Mūsā and Abū Hurairah. And this Hadīth is Hasan Saḥīh.

٢٢٠٥ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلَانَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌النَّضْرُ بْنُ شُمَيْلٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ ‌قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ ‌أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: أُحَدِّثُكُمْ حَدِيثًا سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَا يُحَدِّثُكُمْ أَحَدٌ بَعْدِي أَنَّهُ سَمِعَهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنَّ مِنْ أَشْرَاطِ السَّاعَةِ أَنْ يُرْفَعَ الْعِلْمُ وَيَظْهَرَ الْجَهْلُ،» وَيَفْشُوَ الزِّنَا، وَتُشْرَبَ الْخَمْرُ، وَيَكْثُرَ النِّسَاءُ، وَيَقِلَّ الرِّجَالُ، حَتَّى يَكُونَ لِخَمْسِينَ امْرَأَةً قَيِّمٌ وَاحِدٌ. وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى، وَأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، وَهَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ.

Commentary

This Hadīth informs us that the Hour shall only be established when all those matters that are like breath and soul of a man's life shall fall prey to corruption. They are: religion, life, reason, protection of family line and wealth.
