کتاب الفتن · نُعیم بن حماد

There will be four trials after me: the first in which blood will be shed, the second in which blood and wealth will be made permissible, the third in which blood, wealth and private parts will be made permissible, and the fourth will be blind and deaf, in which my nation will fight like a human being.

Yahya bin Saeed Al-Attar narrated to us, on the authority of Dirar bin Amr, on the authority of Ishaq bin Abdullah bin Abi Farwa, on the authority of the one who told him, on the authority of Abu Hurairah, (may Allah be pleased with him), who said: The Messenger of Allah, may Allah’s prayers and peace be upon him, said: “After me there will come to you four trials: the first in which blood will be made permissible, the second in which blood and wealth will be permissible, the third in which blood, wealth, and chickens will be permissible, and the fourth will be deaf, blind, constricted, the passing of the waves in the sea, so that no one can find Among the people there is a refuge in it, it circumambulates the Levant, covers Iraq, and tramples the island hand and foot, and the nation is afflicted there with affliction to the point of perpetuity, and then none of the people can say in it: “Mah, mah,” and then they do not know it from one side unless it is torn apart from the other side.”

Four tribulations come: the first tribulation in which blood is made permissible, the second in which blood and wealth are made permissible, the third in which blood, wealth and private parts are made permissible, and the fourth is blind and dark, dates like the sea, spreading until not an Arab house remains without entering it.

Al-Hakam bin Nafi’ narrated to us, on the authority of Artat bin Al-Mundhir, who said: We have heard that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah’s prayers and peace be upon him, said: “There will be four trials in my nation, at the end of which afflictions will afflict my nation. The first is a calamity in which they will be afflicted until the believer says: This is my destruction, then it will be revealed. The second is until the believer says: This is my destruction, then it will be revealed. The third is whenever it is said: It has passed, it will continue. And the fourth trial will lead you to disbelief. The nation was with this once, and with this another time, without an imam or a group, then the Messiah, then the rising of the sun from the west, and before the Hour was seventy-two charlatans, among them there were those who would be followed only by one man.”

Al-Walid bin Muslim told us, on the authority of Abd al-Rahman bin Yazid bin Jabir, on the authority of Umair bin Hani, who said: The Messenger of Allah, may Allah’s prayers and peace be upon him, said: “The trial of good times involves war and flight, and the trial of good times comes out from under the feet of a man who claims to be from me and is not from me. He knows if he is fighting for what is right or for what is wrong, so they continue like this until they become two camps: a camp of faith in which there is no hypocrisy, and a camp of hypocrisy in which there is no faith. So when they meet, he will see the Dajjal today or tomorrow.”

Al-Walid bin Muslim told us, on the authority of Ismail bin Rafi’, on the authority of the one who told him, on the authority of Abu Saeed Al-Khudri, (may Allah be pleased with him), who said: The Messenger of Allah, may Allah’s prayers and peace be upon him, said: “There will be tribulations after me, including the tribulation of Ahlas, in which there will be war and flight, then after that tribulations worse than that, and then there will be tribulations that, whenever it is said: it will end, it will go further, until there will not remain a house without entering it, and no Muslim without its silence, until a man from my family emerges.”

It will be a temptation in which the minds of men will be twisted until you can hardly see a sane man

A man fights there without knowing whether he is fighting right or wrong

How can you do if you see what is good as wrong, and what is wrong as good? Yes

After me, my nation will be afflicted with tribulations in which a man’s heart will die just as his body will die

Among the signs of calamity and signs of the Hour are that minds become alienated, dreams diminish, worries increase, signs of truth are raised, and injustice appears.

The Fourth Trial, in which my nation will struggle like humanity, the affliction will become so severe that good will not be recognized and evil will not be denounced.

After me, four trials will come to you. The fourth of them is deaf, blind, and deafening. The nation will be afflicted with afflictions that will afflict people, until goodness is denied and evil is recognized. Their hearts will die in it as their bodies die.

Muhammad ibn al-Harith al-Bahrani told us, on the authority of Muhammad ibn Abd al-Rahman al-Bilmani, on the authority of his father, on the authority of Ibn Umar, (may Allah be pleased with them) both, who said: The Messenger of Allah, may Allah’s prayers and peace be upon him, said: “The Hour will not come until a man passes by the grave and says: I wish I were in his companion’s place when the people face the trials.”

Narrated Abu Huraira:The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "The Hour will not be established till a man passes by a grave of somebody and says, 'Would that I were in his place

If a man does not trust his companion

Worshiping in chaos and strife is like migration to me

He will be one of my companions. May Allah forgive them for their precedence. If people after them follow their example, Allah will cast them into the fire of hell.

Is it the one that the dogs of Hawab bark?

Are you the one who is barked by such-and-such water dogs? Beware, Humaira

On that day, this is the guidance

He did not entrust us with a covenant to take us in the emirate, but it is something we saw before ourselves. If it is right, it is from Allah, and if it is wrong, then it is from ourselves. Then Abu Bakr was appointed as successor, and he remained upright and upright. Then he appointed Omar as successor, so he remained upright and upright, until he struck religion with its might, then some people sought the world. Allah pardons whomever He wills, and punishes whomever He wills.

You do not know what they did after you

Itab bin Bashir told us, on the authority of Khaseef, on the authority of Mujahid, on the authority of Aisha, (may Allah be pleased with her). She said: “I entered upon the Messenger of Allah, may Allah’s prayers and peace be upon him, while Uthman was in front of him, conversing with him. I did not recognize anything from his statement except Uthman’s words: Unjust and hostile, O Messenger of Allah, unjust and hostile. I did not know what it was until Uthman was killed, then I learned that the Prophet, may Allah’s prayers and peace be upon him, only intended to kill him. Aisha said: And I did not like it to reach Othman is nothing but something similar to him reached me, except that Allah knew that I did not like to kill him, and if I had liked to kill him, I would have killed him.” That was when he shot her howdah with arrows until it became like a hedgehog.

How are you when so much of this happens to you? Perhaps you are evil and intrigued by it
