[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was asked about the Hour before he died on a month, so he said, "You ask me about the Hour while its knowledge is only with Allah. By the One in whose hand is my soul, I do not know today any person whose life span is a hundred years."  

أحمد:١٤٤٩٣ – حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النَّضْرِ حَدَّثَنَا الْمُبَارَكُ حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُعَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ سُئِلَ عَنِ السَّاعَةِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَمُوتَ بِشَهْرٍ فَقَالَ تَسْأَلُونِي عَنِ السَّاعَةِ وَإِنَّمَا عِلْمُهَا عِنْدَ اللهِ فَوَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ مَا أَعْلَمُ الْيَوْمَ نَفْسًا مَنْفُوسَةً يَأْتِي عَلَيْهَا مِائَةُ سَنَةٍ

I heard Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying this one month before his death: You asked me about the Last Hour whereas its knowledge is with Allah. I, however, take an oath and say that none upon the earth, the created beings (from amongst my Companions), would survive at the end of one hundred years.
