One man will be seen being followed by forty women dependant upon him on account of the scarcity of men and excess of women.”.
وعن أبي موسى الأشعري رضي الله عنه أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال:
“ليأتين على الناس زمان يطوف الرجل فيه بالصدقة من الذهب، فلا يجد أحداً يأخذها منه، ويرى الرجل الواحد يتبعه أربعون امرأة يلذن به من قلة الرجال وكثرة النساء” ((رواه مسلم)).
