While the Prophet ﷺ was saying something in a gathering, a Bedouin came and asked him, "When would the Hour (Doomsday) take place?" Messenger of Allah ﷺ continued his talk, so some people said that Messenger of Allah ﷺ had heard the question, but did not like what that Bedouin had asked. Some of them said that Messenger of Allah ﷺ had not heard it. When the Prophet ﷺ finished his speech, he said, "Where is the questioner, who inquired about the Hour (Doomsday)?" The Bedouin said, "I am here, O Allah's Apostle ." Then the Prophet ﷺ said, "When honesty is lost, then wait for the Hour (Doomsday)." The Bedouin said, "How will that be lost?" The Prophet ﷺ said, "When the power or authority comes in the hands of unfit persons, then wait for the Hour (Doomsday.)"  

بَيْنَمَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فِي مَجْلِسٍ يُحَدِّثُ الْقَوْمَ جَاءَهُ أَعْرَابِيٌّ فَقَالَ مَتَى السَّاعَةُ فَمَضَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُحَدِّثُ فَقَالَ بَعْضُ الْقَوْمِ سَمِعَ مَا قَالَ فَكَرِهَ مَا قَالَ وَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ بَلْ لَمْ يَسْمَعْ حَتَّى إِذَا قَضَى حَدِيثَهُ قَالَ أَيْنَ أُرَاهُ السَّائِلُ عَنِ السَّاعَةِ قَالَ هَا أَنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ فَإِذَا ضُيِّعَتِ الأَمَانَةُ فَانْتَظِرِ السَّاعَةَ قَالَ كَيْفَ إِضَاعَتُهَا قَالَ إِذَا وُسِّدَ الأَمْرُ إِلَى غَيْرِ أَهْلِهِ فَانْتَظِرِ السَّاعَةَ  

[Machine] While the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was sitting in his gathering, speaking to the people, an Arab came and said, "O Messenger of Allah, when is the hour (Day of Judgment)?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ continued speaking, and some of the people disliked what the Arab said, while others had not heard it until he finished. Then he asked, "Where is the one who asked about the hour?" The Arab said, "Here I am, O Messenger of Allah." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "When trust is lost, await the hour." The Arab asked, "O Messenger of Allah, how is trust lost?" He replied, "When the matter is entrusted to those who are not qualified, then await the hour."  

بَيْنَمَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ جَالِسٌ فِي مَجْلِسِهِ يُحَدِّثُ الْقَوْمَ حَدِيثًا جَاءَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَتَى السَّاعَةُ؟ قَالَ فَمَضَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُحَدِّثُ فَقَالَ بَعْضُ الْقَوْمِ سَمِعَ فَكَرِهَ مَا قَالَ وَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ بَلْ لَمْ يَسْمَعْ حَتَّى إِذَا قَضَى حَدِيثَهُ قَالَ أَيْنَ السَّائِلُ عَنِ السَّاعَةِ؟ قَالَ هَا أَنَا ذَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ إِذَا ضُيِّعَتِ الْأَمَانَةُ فَانْتَظِرِ السَّاعَةَ قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ كَيْفَ؟ أَوْ مَا إِضَاعَتُهَا؟ قَالَ إِذَا تَوَسَّدَ الْأَمْرَ غَيْرُ أَهْلِهِ فَانْتَظِرِ السَّاعَةَ  

[Machine] While the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was speaking to the people, a bedouin came to him and said, "When is the Hour (i.e., the Day of Judgment)?" The Prophet ﷺ continued speaking, and some of the people heard what he said but disliked it, while others had not heard until he finished his speech. Then he asked, "Where is the questioner about the Hour?" The bedouin said, "Here I am." The Prophet ﷺ said, "When trust is lost, then wait for the Hour." The bedouin asked, "How will trust be lost?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "When authority is given to those who are undeserving, then wait for the Hour."
