That Day will be such that Allah will collect on it the interiors and the posteriors, to stand in obedience for exaction of accounts and for award of recompense for deeds. Sweat will flow to their mouths like rains while the earth will be trembling under them. In the best condition among them will be he who has found a resting place for both his feet and an open place for his breath.
Part of the same sermon about future troubles (fitan):
The troubles are like a dark night. Horses will not stand for (facing) them nor will their banners turn back. They will approach in full reins and ready with saddles. Their leader will be driving them and the rider will be exerting (them). The trouble-mongers are a people whose attacks are severe. Those who will fight them for the sake of Allah will be a people who are low in the estimation of the proud, unknown in the earth but well known on the sky. Woe to you O Basrah, when an army of Allah’s infliction will face you without (raising) their dust of cries! Your inhabitants will then face bloody death and a dire hunger.
