حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ،‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ،‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا عَوْفٌ،‏‏‏‏ عَنْ الْحَسَنِ،‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا أَسِيدُ بْنُ الْمُتَشَمِّسِ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُوسَى،‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ السَّاعَةِ لَهَرْجًا ،‏‏‏‏ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ قُلْتُ:‏‏‏‏ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ،‏‏‏‏ مَا الْهَرْجُ؟ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ الْقَتْلُ ،‏‏‏‏ فَقَالَ بَعْضُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ:‏‏‏‏ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ،‏‏‏‏ إِنَّا نَقْتُلُ الْآنَ فِي الْعَامِ الْوَاحِدِ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ كَذَا وَكَذَا،‏‏‏‏ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ لَيْسَ بِقَتْلِ الْمُشْرِكِينَ،‏‏‏‏ وَلَكِنْ يَقْتُلُ بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضًا،‏‏‏‏ حَتَّى يَقْتُلَ الرَّجُلُ جَارَهُ،‏‏‏‏ وَابْنَ عَمِّهِ،‏‏‏‏ وَذَا قَرَابَتِهِ ،‏‏‏‏ فَقَالَ بَعْضُ الْقَوْمِ:‏‏‏‏ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ،‏‏‏‏ وَمَعَنَا عُقُولُنَا ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ،‏‏‏‏ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ لَا تُنْزَعُ عُقُولُ أَكْثَرِ ذَلِكَ الزَّمَانِ،‏‏‏‏ وَيَخْلُفُ لَهُ هَبَاءٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ لَا عُقُولَ لَهُمْ ،‏‏‏‏ ثُمَّ قَالَ الْأَشْعَرِيُّ:‏‏‏‏ وَايْمُ اللَّهِ إِنِّي لَأَظُنُّهَا مُدْرِكَتِي،‏‏‏‏ وَإِيَّاكُمْ وَايْمُ اللَّهِ مَا لِي وَلَكُمْ مِنْهَا مَخْرَجٌ،‏‏‏‏ إِنْ أَدْرَكَتْنَا فِيمَا عَهِدَ إِلَيْنَا نَبِيُّنَا صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ،‏‏‏‏ إِلَّا أَنْ نَخْرُجَ كَمَا دَخَلْنَا فِيهَا.

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Before the Hour comes there will be Harj.” I said: “O Messenger of Allah, what is Harj?” He said: “Killing.” Some of the Muslims said: “O Messenger of Allah, now we kill such and such a number of idolaters in one year.” The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “That will not be like killing the idolaters, rather you will kill one another, until a man will kill his neighbor and son of the cousin and a relative.” Some of the people said: “O Messenger of Allah, will we be in our right minds that day?” The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “No, reason will be taken away from most of the people at that time, and there will be left the insignificant people who have no reason.”
