Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Your Excellency the Shaykh, the questioner says: Is this the time in which the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned that the one who holds fast to his religion is like the one who holds fast to an ember? And what is the ruling on applying the hadiths of the End Times to these times?
Answer:
We do not assert, my brother, that this is the time in which the one who holds fast to his religion is like the one who holds fast to an ember. We do not assert this, but we say that this will come, because what the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) informed us of must come, it must come. As for asserting this, it requires evidence. Yes.
