حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا غُنْدَرٌ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ وَاصِلٍ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، وَأَحْسِبُهُ، رَفَعَهُ قَالَ ‏‏ بَيْنَ يَدَىِ السَّاعَةِ أَيَّامُ الْهَرْجِ، يَزُولُ الْعِلْمُ، وَيَظْهَرُ فِيهَا الْجَهْلُ ‏"‏‏‏ قَالَ أَبُو مُوسَى وَالْهَرْجُ الْقَتْلُ بِلِسَانِ الْحَبَشَةِ‏‏
Narrated `Abdullah:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Near the establishment of the Hour, there will be the days of Al-Harj, and the religious knowledge will be taken away (vanish i.e. by the death of Religious scholars) and general ignorance will spread." Abu Musa said, "Al-Harj, in the Ethiopian language, means killing."
