English Translation
Yahya narrated to us from Ibn 'Ajlan, he said: I heard my father narrating from Abu Hurayrah (رضي الله عنه) who said: the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "The Hour will not be established until knowledge is taken away, ignorance prevails, and al-harj increases." They asked: "What is al-harj?" He said: "Killing."
