Increase Knowledge, Avoid Conflict/Civil Strife, Practice Generosity/Charity

The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ warned his followers about a time that would come in the future where knowledge would decrease, civil strife would appear, niggardliness would become widespread and there would be much slaughter. This hadith is a warning to us to stay away from such things as they are not beneficial for us in any way. We should strive to increase our knowledge by reading books and attending lectures so that we can benefit ourselves and others around us. We should also try to avoid any kind of civil strife or conflict as it can lead to destruction of lives and property. Lastly, we should always practice generosity instead of being stingy with our resources as this is what Allah has commanded us in the Quran.
