17. A time will come upon the people when none will be given a high position except the slanderer, none will be deemed witty except the corrupt and none will be regarded as weak but the just. People will consider charity as a loss, keeping ties with near relatives as an obligation and worship as a means of gaining superiority over people. Vain desires will overcome them and guidance will disappear from among them.

17 يَأْتي عَلَى النّاسِ زَمانٌ لايُقَرَّبُ فيهِ إلاّ الماحِلُ، ولايُسْتَظْرَفُ فيهِ إلاّ الفاجِرُ، ولايُضَعَّفُ فيهِ إلاّ المُنْصِفُ، يَعُدُّونَ الصَّدَقَةَ غُرْماً، وصِلَةَ الرَّحِمِ مَنّاً، والعِبادَةَ اسْتَطالَةً عَلَى النّاسِ، ويَظْهَرُ عَلَيْهِمُ الهَوى، ويَخْفى بَيْنَهُمُ الهُدى.
