"كَيف أنتُمْ إِذَا التَقتكم فتنةٌ فَتُتَّخذ سُنةً يَرْبُو فيها الصغير ويَهرَمُ فيها الكبيرُ، وإذَا تُرِكَ مِنهَا شَيءٌ قيل: تركت سُنَّةً إِذا كَثُرَ قُرآؤكُم، وَقَلَّ علَمَاؤكمْ، وكثُرَ أمَراؤكُمْ، وَقَلَّتْ أمَنَاؤكُمْ، والتُمِسَت الدُّنْيَا بِعَمَل الآخرةِ، وتُفُقِّه لغير الله".
Translation
Machine translation, not reviewed
"How will you be when a trial (fitnah) befalls you, and it is taken as a established practice (sunnah), in which the young grow up and the old grow aged, and if any part of it is abandoned, it is said: 'A sunnah has been abandoned'? That is when your reciters become many and your scholars few, your leaders become many and your trustworthy ones few, the world is sought through the work of the Hereafter, and understanding of religion is acquired for other than God."
