The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The Hour is near at hand, and it will not come until knowledge is taken away, tribulations appear, lying becomes widespread, time draws close, markets draw close to one another, and harj increases."Someone asked, "What is harj?"He replied, "Killing."
عن رسول الله ﷺ قال: يوشك أن لا تقوم الساعة حتى يقبض العلم، وتظهر الفتن ويكثر الكذب، ويتقارب الزمان، وتتقارب الأسواق، ويكثر الهرج قيل: وما الهرج؟ قال: القتل.
Ahmad narrated it (10724), and Ibn Hibban graded it sahih (6718), the wording being his, both from the hadith of Uthman bin Umar (he is Ibn Faris al-Abdi), who said, Ibn Abu Dhib narrated to us, from Saeed bin Samaan, from Abu Hurairah, who mentioned it. Its chain of transmission is sahih.
