It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "The Hour will not be established until 'Allah, Allah' is no longer said on the earth." This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim), but they did not record it. However, Imam Muslim (may Allah have mercy on him) alone recorded the hadith of Shu'bah from Abu Ishaq with these words: "The Hour will be established only upon the worst of people."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The Hour will not be established until saying 'La ilaha illallah' (There is no god but Allah) has ceased on the earth." This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim), but they did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The Hour will not be established until saying 'Allah, Allah' has ceased on the earth; and until a woman passes by a piece of a sandal and says (in amazement on seeing it): 'At one time this too had a man (as its owner)'; and until one man becomes the guardian of fifty women; and until the sky rains abundantly but the earth grows nothing." This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of Imam Muslim, but the two Shaykhs did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "By the One in whose hand is my soul! The Hour will not be established upon a man who says 'La ilaha illallah' (There is no god but Allah) and enjoins good and forbids evil." This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of Imam Muslim, but the two Shaykhs did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The Hour will not be established until saying 'Allah, Allah' has ceased on the earth; and until a woman passes by a sandal, picks it up and says: 'This sandal belonged to a man'; and until only one man remains as the guardian of fifty women; and until the sky rains but the earth grows nothing." This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of Imam Muslim, but the two Shaykhs did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The Hour will not be established until there remains on the face of the earth no one in whom Allah has any need (that is, any aspect of good), and until a woman is seized in broad daylight, openly, and fornication is committed with her in the very middle of the road, and no one will object to it or change it. The best of them on that day will be the one who says (to the one committing it): 'If only you had moved her a little to one side of the road.' That man will be among them (in rank) like Abu Bakr and Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) are among you." This hadith has a sahih (authentic) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ilba' al-Sulami (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "The Hour will be established only upon the refuse of mankind (that is, the very worst and most base of people)." This hadith has a sahih (authentic) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs did not record it.
