Sayyiduna Mirdas Aslami (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I heard the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: "The righteous people will be taken (from the world) as predecessors, and the righteous will perish one by one, until only such people will remain who will be like the useless and worthless husks of dates. Allah Almighty will not care about them."
