The Hour will not come until you fight the Jews: until the stone behind which a Jew will be hiding will say: O Muslim, this is a Jew behind me; kill him
Authenticعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «لاَ تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ حَتَّى تُقَاتِلُوا اليَهُودَ، حَتَّى يَقُولَ الحَجَرُ وَرَاءَهُ اليَهُودِيُّ: يَا مُسْلِمُ، هَذَا يَهُودِيٌّ وَرَائِي فَاقْتُلْهُ».
Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The Hour will not come until you fight the Jews: until the stone behind which a Jew will be hiding will say: O Muslim, this is a Jew behind me; kill him."
Explanation
The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) reported that the Hour will not occur until the Muslims and the Jews fight each other - until when a Jew flees to hide behind a stone from the Muslims, Allah will make the stone speak and it will call out to the Muslim that there is a Jew behind it, so that he will go and kill him.
Benefits
- The Prophet (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) reported about some future and unseen things, as revealed to him by Allah Almighty - and they will surely take place.
- The Muslims and the Jews will fight each other at the end of time, and this is one of the portents of the Hour.
- Islam will endure until the Day of Judgment and prevail over all other religions.
- Allah Almighty supports the Muslims against their enemy, and part of this support is that He will make the stones speak at the end of time.
