Jami at-Tirmidhi 2200 (Book 33, Hadith 43) #27833
Knowledge and Killing in the Future

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w) warned his followers that in the future, knowledge will be raised up and killing will become abundant.

Abu Musa narrated that the Messenger of Allah(s.a.w) said: "Indeed after you there will be days in which knowledge shall be raised up and Al-Harj shall abound". They said: "O Messenger of Allah(s.a.w)! What is Al-Harj?" He said: "Killing".
حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادٌ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ شَقِيقِ بْنِ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏"‏ إِنَّ مِنْ وَرَائِكُمْ أَيَّامًا يُرْفَعُ فِيهَا الْعِلْمُ وَيَكْثُرُ فِيهَا الْهَرْجُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا الْهَرْجُ قَالَ ‏"‏ الْقَتْلُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ وَخَالِدِ بْنِ الْوَلِيدِ وَمَعْقِلِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ ‏.‏ وَهَذَا حَدِيثٌ صَحِيحٌ

QUICK LESSONS:
Strive for peace and justice

EXPLANATIONS:
The Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w) warned his followers about what would happen in the future after they were gone. He said that knowledge would be raised up, meaning it would become more important and widely available to people, but at the same time there would also be a lot of killing or violence taking place as well. This hadith is a reminder to us that even though knowledge is important, we should also strive for peace and justice so that our world can remain safe for everyone living in it. We should not let violence take over our lives or our communities because it can lead to destruction instead of progress and development.
