The document discusses several hadiths from the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) about signs that will occur before the Day of Judgement. The hadiths state that the best people will be taken from the earth and only the worst will remain, not knowing good or forbidding evil. The Hour will not come until no one says "There is no god but Allah" or calls out "Allah, Allah." It is suggested this means a lack of enjoining good and forbidding evil, as well as Allah no longer being mentioned. The Prophet also said death will be widespread and people will become jealous and devour the weak like locusts until the Hour comes. The Hour will only come
