The Meaning of the Hadith: In the Last Days, Your Reciters Will Be Many and Your Jurists Few

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks about the saying of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him): “In the last days, your reciters will be many and your jurists few.” Does the meaning of “many reciters” refer to those who know how to read and write, or to those who are skilled in reciting the Qur'an?

Answer:
It refers to both. “Your reciters” means those who memorize the Qur'an but do not have fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence), as well as those who read books without understanding or fiqh, or those who memorize texts without understanding their meaning. The term “fiqh in its implication” covers both of these.
