This hadith speaks about a time in the future known as Qiyaamah, or the Day of Judgment. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said that during this time, people will go around giving alms from their gold but no one will accept it due to the scarcity of men and excess of women. This means that there will be more women than men at this point in time, leading to one man being followed by forty women who are dependent on him for support. This hadith serves as a reminder for us to always strive towards good deeds such as giving Sadaqah or charity from our Dhahab or gold so that we can benefit from it even if it is not accepted during this period due to the Qillat or scarcity.
