"كَيفَ بِكُم بِزَمَانٍ يُوشِكُ أنْ يَأتِيَ، يُغَربلُ النَّاسُ فِيهِ غَرْبَلَةً، وَيَبْقَى حُثَالةٌ منَ الناسِ قَد مَرَجَت عُهُودُهُمْ وأمَانَاتهُمْ واخْتَلَفُوا وكَانوا هَكَذا؟ وَشَبَّكَ بَينَ أصَابعه، قالوا: كيفَ بِنَا يَا رسولَ الله إِذَا كَانَ ذَلِكَ؟ قَال: تَأخْذُونَ بِمَا تَغرفْون، وَتدَعُونَ مَا تُنكرُونَ وَتُقبِلُونَ عَلَى أمرِ خَاصَّتِكُمْ، وَتَذَرُونَ أمر عَامَّتِكُمْ".

"How will you fare in a time that is about to come, when people will be sifted thoroughly, and there will remain the dregs of the people, whose covenants and trusts have become disordered, and they will differ, and they will be like this?" And he interlaced his fingers. They said: "How should we act, O Messenger of Allah, when that happens?" He said: "You will take what you recognize, and leave what you disapprove of, and you will attend to your own private affairs, and leave the affairs of the general public."
