KNOWLEDGE JUST BEFORE THE END OF THE
WORLD

LEADERSHIP WITHOUT KNOWLEDGE

|H 1421

“Allah will not withdraw knowledge by snatching it from people, but it
will taken away through the death of knowledgeable people. So that
when there are no knowledgeable people left, people will elect the
ignorant to be their leaders, asking them for guidance and they will
issue their edicts without knowledge. They themselves will be astray
and lead others astray."

Bukhari and Muslim with a chain up to Abdullah son of Amr, the son of Al 'As who
related that the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said this.
