Sahih al-Bukhari 7082 (Book 92, Hadith 33) #6805
Finding Protection During Times of Affliction

SUMMARY: During times of affliction, it is best to find a place of protection and take shelter in it.

Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah's Messenger said, "There will be afflictions (in the near future) during which a sitting person will be better than a standing one, and the standing one will be better than a walking one, and the walking one will be better than a running one, and whoever will expose himself to these afflictions, they will destroy him. So whoever can find a place of protection or refuge from them, should take shelter in it".
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْيَمَانِ، أَخْبَرَنَا شُعَيْبٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو سَلَمَةَ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، أَنَّ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ "‏ سَتَكُونُ فِتَنٌ الْقَاعِدُ فِيهَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ الْقَائِمِ، وَالْقَائِمُ خَيْرٌ مِنَ الْمَاشِي، وَالْمَاشِي فِيهَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ السَّاعِي، مَنْ تَشَرَّفَ لَهَا تَسْتَشْرِفْهُ، فَمَنْ وَجَدَ مَلْجَأً أَوْ مَعَاذًا فَلْيَعُذْ بِهِ

Find refuge or shelter from any potential harm or danger during times of affliction.

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks about the importance of finding protection during times of affliction. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said that during these difficult times, a person who is sitting will be better off than one who is standing, and the standing one will be better off than one who is walking, and the walking one will be better off than a running one. He also warned that whoever exposes themselves to these afflictions will be destroyed by them. Therefore, it is important for us to find refuge or shelter from these afflictions if we can. We should look for places where we can feel safe and secure from any harm or danger that may come our way.
