Hadith text: A time will come when a man will go about with charity…

عن أبي موسى الأشعري رضي الله عنه أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال: «لَيَأْتِيَنَّ على الناس زمانٌ يَطُوفُ الرجلُ فيه بالصدقة من الذهب فلا يجد أحدا يأخذها منه، ويُرَى الرجلُ الواحدُ يَتْبَعُهُ أربعون امرأة يَلُذْنَ به من قِلَّةِ الرجال وكَثْرَةِ النساء».

Explanation of the hadith: A time will come when a man will go about with charity…

Money will increase so abundantly that no one will be found to take it. Men will decrease and women will increase, either due to wars or because more women will be born, to such an extent that for one man, there will be forty women, including daughters, sisters, and relatives, who will depend on him.
