[Machine] We were sitting with Abdullah when a man came and said, "The prayer has been established." So he stood up and we stood up with him. When we entered the mosque, we saw the people in the front of the mosque bowing down. He said the takbir (saying 'Allahu Akbar') and bowed down, and we also bowed down. Then we walked and did the same as he did. A man passed by quickly and said, "Peace be upon you, O Abu Abdur Rahman." He replied, "May Allah and His Messenger speak the truth." After we finished praying and returned, he went to his family and we sat down. Some of us said to others, "Did you hear his answer to the man? He testified that Allah and His Messenger spoke the truth. Which one of you will ask him?" Tariq said, "I will ask him." So he asked him when he came out, and he mentioned from the Prophet ﷺ that before the Hour comes, there will be private greetings, widespread trade, in which a woman will help her husband in trade, the severing of the ties of kinship, false testimony, withholding true testimony, and the appearance of the pen.
