Transmitted from
Huzaifa: The Prophet (may God bless him and grant
him peace) said: “O Huzaifa! On that day, they will
be about to revert back from their religion...they
will also not perform their salah (prayers). (al-Uqayli,
The Expected Mahdi, 3rd edition
The Prophet (may
God bless him and grant him peace) said: “One of the
signs of the Doomsday is abandonment of salah...at
that time, ya Selman! The most wicked of all sins
and irreligiousness will occur. People will abandon
salah and adhere to their lust. If you attain that
period, perform your prayers on their respective times.”
(Fera Idu Fevaidi’l Fiqr Fi’l Imam al-Mahdi al-Muntadhar,
pp. 146-147)
People will encounter
such a time that salah (prayers) will be abandoned,
structures will extend, oaths and curses will be everywhere,
bribery and adultery will spread and the Hereafter
will be exchanged for this life. (Muhammad ibn ‘Abd
al-Rasul Barzanji,
Al-Isha‘ah li-ashrat al-sa‘ah, p.157)
