Hastening to do Good Deeds
السابع: عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّه عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّه عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: بَادِرُوا بِالأَعْمَالِ سَبْعًا. هَلْ تنتظرون إِلاَّ فَقْرًا مُنْسِيًا، أَوْ غِنًى مُطْغِيًا، أَوْ مَرَضًا مُفْسِدًا، أَوْ هَرَمًا مُفَنِّدًا أَوْ مَوْتًا مُجْهِزًا أَوِ الدَّجَّالَ فَشَرُّ غَائِبٍ يُنْتَظَرُ، أَوِ السَّاعَةَ فَالسَّاعَةُ أَدْهَى وَأَمَرُّ! ((رَوَاهُ التِّرْمِذِيُّ وَقَالَ: حَدِيثٌ حَسَن)).
Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "Hasten to do good deeds before you are overtaken by one of the seven afflictions." Then (giving a warning) he said, "Are you waiting for such poverty which will make you unmindful of devotion; or prosperity which will make you corrupt, or disease as will disable you, or such senility as will make you mentally unstable, or sudden death, or Ad-Dajjal who is the worst expected absent, or the Hour, and the Hour will be most grievous and most bitter". [At-Tirmidhi, who categorized it as Hadith Hasan].
