Sahih al-Bukhari 59

Hadith text

Narrated Abu Huraira:While the Prophet (ﷺ) was saying something in a gathering, a Bedouin came and asked him, "When would the Hour (Doomsday) take place?" Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) continued his talk, so some people said that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) had heard the question, but did not like what that Bedouin had asked. Some of them said that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) had not heard it. When the Prophet (ﷺ) finished his speech, he said, "Where is the questioner, who inquired about the Hour (Doomsday)?" The Bedouin said, "I am here, O Allah's Apostle ." Then the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "When honesty is lost, then wait for the Hour (Doomsday)." The Bedouin said, "How will that be lost?" The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "When the power or authority comes in the hands of unfit persons, then wait for the Hour (Doomsday)

Abu Huraira (رضی اللہ عنہ) se riwayat hai ke Nabi (ﷺ) ek majlis mein kuch farma rahe the, ek dehati aaya aur pucha: "Qiyamat kab aayegi?" Aap (ﷺ) ne apni baat jaari rakhi. Kuch logon ne kaha ke Aap ne sun liya magar sawaal pasand nahi aaya, kuch ne kaha Aap ne suna hi nahi. Jab Aap apni baat khatam kar chuke to farmaya: "Qiyamat ke baare mein poochne wala kahan hai?" Dehati ne kaha: "Main hoon, Ya Rasoolallah." Aap ne farmaya: "Jab amanat-daari khatam ho jaye, to Qiyamat ka intezar karo." Usne pucha: "Woh kaise khatam hogi?" Farmaya: "Jab ohda-o-ikhtiyar na-ahal logon ke haath mein aa jaye, to Qiyamat ka intezar karo."
