عن مرداس الأسلمي رضي الله عنه قَالَ: قَالَ النَّبِيُّ -صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ-: «يذهب الصالحون الأول فالأول، ويبقى حُثَالَةٌ كَحُثَالَةِ الشعير أو التمر لا يُبَالِيهُم الله بَالَةً».

Explanation of the hadith: Righteous people will go (die) one after another. Meanw…

The noble Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) informs us that at the end of times, Allah will take the souls of righteous people; while other people will survive whom Allah will not raise in status or value, nor will have mercy upon them. Indeed, they are the most wicked creatures in His sight. The Hour will occur while they are alive.
