Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Soon a time of disliked matters and tribulations will begin." The noble Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) asked: "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! What should a person among us do if he reaches that time?" He replied: "Continue to fulfill the obligations that are due from you, and ask Allah for your own rights."
