On the Same Subject: The Day of Judgement :
That Day will be such that Allah will collect on it the interiors
and the posteriors, to stand in obedience for exaction of accounts and for
award of recompense for deeds. Sweat will flow to their mouths like rains
while the earth will be trembling under them. In the best condition among
them will be he who has found a resting place for both his feet and an
open place for his breath.
Part of the same sermon about future troubles (fitan):
The troubles are like a dark night. Horses will not stand for
(facing) them nor will their banners turn back. They will approach in full
reins and ready with saddles. Their leader will be driving them and the
rider will be exerting (them). The trouble-mongers are a people whose
attacks are severe. Those who will fight them for the sake of Allah will be
a people who are low in the estimation of the proud, unknown in the earth
but well known on the sky. Woe to you O Basra, when an army of Allah’s
infliction will face you without (raising) their dust of cries! Your
inhabitants will then face bloody death and a dire hunger.) the tongue.
