Hadith - Bukhari 9.237, Narrated Abu Huraira Allahs Messenger said, The Hour will not occur (1) until two big groups fight each other whereupon there will be a great number of casualties on both sides and they will be following one and the same religious doctrine, (2) until about thirty Dajjals (liars) appear, and each one of them will claim that he is Allahs Messenger, (3) until the religious knowledge is taken away (by the death of religious scholars) (4) until earthquakes increase in number (5) until time passes quickly, (6) until Fitan (afflictions) appear, (7) until Al-Harj (i.e., killing) will increase, (8) until wealth will be in abundance--so abundant that a wealthy person will worry lest nobody should accept his Zakat (charity), and whenever he will present it to someone, that person (to whom it will be offered) will say, I am not in need of it, (9) until the people compete with one another in constructing high buildings, (10) until a man when passing by a grave of someone will say, Would that I were in his place, (11) and until the sun rises from the West. So, when the sun rises and the people see it (rising from the West), they will all believe (embrace Islam), but that will be the time when: (As Allah in the Quran said,) The day when some signs of your Lord will come, no good will it do to a person to believe then, if he believed not before, nor earned good (by performing deeds of righteousness) through his faith. (Surah Al-Anaam 6.158) The Hour will occur while two men spreading a garment in front of them but they will not be able to sell it, nor fold it up; and the Hour will be established when a man has milked his she-camel and has taken away the milk but he will not be able to drink it; and the Hour will be established before a man repairing a tank (for his livestock) is able to water (his animals) in it; and the Hour will be established when a person has raised a morsel (of food) to his mouth but will not be able to eat it.
