The Resurrection will occur among the worst of people

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: Will the Resurrection occur only among the worst of people? And will the terrors of the Day of Resurrection be for them only?

Answer:
The Resurrection will not occur except among the worst of people. It will not occur on earth while a believer remains; if only disbelievers remain on earth, the Resurrection will occur among them. The believers will be taken before the Day of Resurrection; they will die before the Day of Resurrection. A wind will come and take their souls—a good wind will take their souls—then the worst of people will remain, frolicking like the frolicking of donkeys, and the Hour will occur among them. For this reason, the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
the worst of people are those whom the Hour overtakes while they are still aliveمن شرار الناس من تدركهم الساعة وهم أحياء
Sahih Ibn Khuzaymah 2:461
and those who build mosques over graves. Those who build mosques over graves are among the worst of people. Yes.
