عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رضي الله عنه قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَا تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ حَتَّى يَتَقَارَبَ الزَّمَانُ، فَتَكُونَ السَّنَةُ كَالشَّهْرِ، وَيَكُونَ الشَّهْرُ كَالْجُمُعَةِ، وَتَكُونَ الْجُمُعَةُ كَالْيَوْمِ، وَيَكُونَ الْيَوْمُ كَالسَّاعَةِ، وَتَكُونَ السَّاعَةُ كَاحْتِرَاقِ السَّعَفَةِ الْخُوصَةُ».
Imepokewa kutoka kwa Abuu Huraira -Radhi za Allah ziwe juu yake- amesema: Amesema Mtume -Sala na amani ziwe juu yake-: "Hakitosimama kiyama mpaka zama zikaribiane, mwaka utakuwa kama mwezi, na mwezi utakuwa kama wiki, na wiki kama siku, na siku kama saa, na saa itakuwa kama kuungua kwa jani kavu la mtende".
Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The Hour will not be established until the time is shortened, so a year will be like a month, a month like a week, a week like a day, a day like an hour, and an hour will be like the burning of a palm leaf."
Miongoni mwa alama za Kiyama ni kushuka kwa baraka katika zama au uharaka wake.
