Bismillah Walhamdulillah Was Salaatu Was Salaam 'ala Rasulillah As-Salaam Alaikum Wa-Rahmatullahi Wa-Barakatuhu
Ilm - 4th Dhul-Qa'da 1423 (8 January 2003) Narrated by Abu Huraira (Radhiallaho anho): While the Prophet (sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) was saying something in a gathering, a Bedouin came and asked him, "When would the Hour (Doomsday) take place?" Allah's Messenger (sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) continued his talk, so some people said that Allah's Messenger (sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) had heard the question, but did not like what that Bedouin had asked. Some of them said that Allah's Messenger (sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) had not heard it. When the Prophet (sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) finished his speech, he said, "Where is the questioner, who inquired about the Hour (Doomsday)?" The Bedouin said, "I am here, O Allah's Messenger." Then the Prophet (sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) said, "When honesty is lost, then wait for the Hour (Doomsday)." The Bedouin said, "How will that be lost?" The Prophet (sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) said, "When the power or authority comes in the hands of unfit persons, then wait for the Hour (Doomsday.)"
