47:18
فهل ينظرون الا الساعة ان تاتيهم بغتة فقد جاء اشراطها فانى لهم اذا جاءتهم ذكراهم ١٨
فَهَلْ يَنظُرُونَ إِلَّا ٱلسَّاعَةَ أَن تَأْتِيَهُم بَغْتَةًۭ ۖ فَقَدْ جَآءَ أَشْرَاطُهَا ۚ فَأَنَّىٰ لَهُمْ إِذَا جَآءَتْهُمْ ذِكْرَىٰهُمْ ١٨
فَهَلۡ
يَنظُرُونَ
إِلَّا
ٱلسَّاعَةَ
أَن
تَأۡتِيَهُم
بَغۡتَةٗۖ
فَقَدۡ
جَآءَ
أَشۡرَاطُهَاۚ
فَأَنَّىٰ
لَهُمۡ
إِذَا
جَآءَتۡهُمۡ
ذِكۡرَىٰهُمۡ

I will narrate to you a hadith I heard from Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and none other than I will tell you of it. I heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) saying, "From among the portents of the Hour are the following: Religious knowledge will be taken away; General ignorance (in religious matters) will increase; illegal Sexual intercourse will prevail: Drinking of alcoholic drinks will prevail. Men will decrease in number, and women will increase in number, so much so that fifty women will be looked after by one man."

I will narrate to you a narration which nobody will narrate to you after me. I heard that from the Prophet.

The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Near the establishment of the Hour there will be days during which Religious ignorance will spread, knowledge will be taken away (vanish) and there will be much Al-Harj, and Al- Harj means killing."
