Sunan Ibn Majah 4047 (Book 36, Hadith 122) #33402
Abundance of Wealth and Tribulations before the Hour

SUMMARY: The Hour of Judgement will not come until wealth is abundant and tribulations appear, and killing increases.

It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah said: "The Hour will not begin until wealth becomes abundant and tribulations appear, and Harj increases". They said: "What is Harj, O Messenger of Allah?" He said: "Killing, killing, killing," three times.
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَرْوَانَ الْعُثْمَانِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، عَنِ الْعَلاَءِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ـ ـ قَالَ ‏"‏ لاَ تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ حَتَّى يَفِيضَ الْمَالُ وَتَظْهَرَ الْفِتَنُ وَيَكْثُرَ الْهَرْجُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالُوا وَمَا الْهَرْجُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ ‏"‏ الْقَتْلُ الْقَتْلُ الْقَتْلُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ ثَلاَثًا

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith was narrated by Abu Hurairah, who reported that the Prophet Muhammad said that the Hour of Judgement will not come until wealth is abundant and tribulations appear, as well as an increase in killing. When asked what Harj was, he replied three times "Killing, killing, killing". This hadith teaches us that before the Day of Judgement comes there will be a time where wealth is plentiful but also a time where there are many tribulations and much violence. It serves as a reminder to us to be mindful of our actions in this life so we can prepare for the next life.
