Signs of Jesus’ (pbuh)
Second Coming

83. Adherence to Traitors, and Considering the
Righteous as Treacherous

Soon years containing treacheries
and tricks will come. A liar will be
declared true in them and a true
man will be declared a liar; a
treacherous will be designated as
trustworthy and a trustworthy as
a treacherous. (Ibn Majah)

The time will be years of confusion. People will believe a liar
and not believe one who tells the truth. (Ibn Ahmad Hanbal)

The Day of Judgment will not come until the very lowest peo-
ple are the happiest. (Tirmidhi)
The acceptance of lies and rejection of the truth are among the
portents of Doomsday. (al-Tabarani)

The liar will be received well, and the one who tells the truth
will be rejected. People will trust traitors, and the ones who are
trustworthy will be treated as traitors... Then lies will spread...
(Fera Idu Fevaidi'l Fiqr Fi'l Imam al-Mahdi al-Muntadhar, pp.
146-47)

Tricky years lie before the Hour. At those times, trustworthy
people are accused and traitors are believed. The trustworthy
one is silenced, and the liar is seen as reliable. (Ibn Asakir)
It is a sign of the Hour when one who is not fit possesses a lot
and is brought to a good status, while one who is capable is
ousted. (Nu`aym ibn Hammad, Kitab al-Fitan)
