It is narrated from Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: O Aisha! The first people to be destroyed among the people will be those of your tribe. I asked, "May Allah make me your ransom, do you mean the people of Banu Taym?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: No, rather this tribe of Quraysh. Desires will be adorned before them and people will withdraw from them, and they will be the first to be destroyed. I asked, "Then what will remain of the people after them?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Quraysh are the backbone of the people, so when they are destroyed, the common people will also begin to be destroyed.
