WHEN WILL THE DAY OF JUDGEMENT COME

1888

“Once, when the Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, was sitting talking to the Companions, a Bedouin Arab came and asked, ‘When will the Day of Judgement be?’ The Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, continued talking. Some of those who were present thought perhaps the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, had heard him but did not like being interrupted, whereas others said that he had not heard him.

After the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, had finished what he was saying, he asked, ‘Where is the one who inquired about the Day of Judgement.’ The man said, ‘Here I am, O Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him.’ The Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, told him that it would be: When trust is betrayed, expect the Day of Judgement. The man inquired, ‘What will be the betrayal?’ The Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, answered, ‘When authority is entrusted to those not fit to administer it, then, you may expect the Day of Judgement.’"

Bukhari with a chain up to Abu Hurairah who related that the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said this.
