It is reported that Al-Fudayl bin 'Iyyaad [187H] (rahimahullaah) said:

quote:
"How will you be if you reach a time when you will see people who do not distinguish truth from falsehood, believer from disbeliever, trustworthy from treacherous, nor ignorant from knowledgeable, and neither recognize what is right nor censure what is wrong?"
Ibn Battah, Al-Ibaanah Al-Kubraa 1:188

After reporting this narration, Imam Ibn Battah [387H] (rahimahullaah) said:

quote:
"To Allaah we belong and to Him we will return! We have reached that time, we have heard this and have come to know most of it and witnessed it. If a man to whom Allaah has bestowed sound reasoning looks and thinks carefully and ponders the matter of Islam and its people and treads the rightly-guided path as regards to them, it will become clear to him that most people have turned back on their heels, deviated from the correct path, and turned away from  correct proof. Many people have started to like what they used to hate, allow what they used to forbid and recognize what they used to reject. And for sure - may Allaah have mercy on you - this is not the [right] character of the Muslims, nor the behavior of those who have insight into this religion, and neither of those who believe in it and are certain about it."

Subhanak Allaahuma wa bihamdika ash-hadu anlaa illaaha illa anta astaghfiruka wa atubu ilayk  

If I said anything correct, then it is from Allaah (subhanahu wa taa'ala), and if I erred, then that is from me and shaytan.
