أحمد:١٢٢٠٩حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ حَدَّثَنَا قَتَادَةُ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ

لَأُحَدِّثَنَّكُمْ بِحَدِيثٍ سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ لَا يُحَدِّثُكُمْ أَحَدٌ بَعْدِي سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ لَا تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ حَتَّى يَكُونَ فِي الْخَمْسِينَ امْرَأَةً الْقَيِّمُ الْوَاحِدُ وَتَكْثُرَ النِّسَاءُوَيَقِلَّ الرِّجَالُ

I will narrate to you a narration which nobody will narrate to you after me. I heard that from the Prophet. I heard the Prophet ﷺ saying, "The Hour will not be established" or said: "From among the portents of the Hour is that the religious knowledge will betaken away (by the death of religious Scholars) and general ignorance (of religion) will appear; and the drinking of alcoholic drinks will be very common, and (open) illegal sexual intercourse will prevail, and men will decrease in number while women will increase so much so that, for fifty women there will only be one man to look after them."  

البخاري:٦٨٠٨أَخْبَرَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ شَبِيبٍ حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامٌ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ أَخْبَرَنَا أَنَسٌ قَالَ

لأُحَدِّثَنَّكُمْ حَدِيثًا لاَ يُحَدِّثُكُمُوهُ أَحَدٌ بَعْدِي سَمِعْتُهُ مِنَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ لاَ تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ وَإِمَّا قَالَ مِنْ أَشْرَاطِ السَّاعَةِ أَنْ يُرْفَعَ الْعِلْمُ وَيَظْهَرَ الْجَهْلُ وَيُشْرَبَ الْخَمْرُ وَيَظْهَرَ الزِّنَا وَيَقِلَّ الرِّجَالُ وَيَكْثُرَ النِّسَاءُ حَتَّى يَكُونَ لِلْخَمْسِينَ امْرَأَةً الْقَيِّمُ الْوَاحِدُ

“Shall I not tell you a Hadith that I heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, which no one will tell you after me? I heard it from him (saying): ‘Among the portents of the Hour are that knowledge will be taken away and ignorance will prevail, illegal sex will become widespread and wine will be drunk, and men will disappear and women will be left, until there is one man in charge of fifty women.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 4045)
