Abu Hurairah (radhiyalLaahu'anh) reported:
The Messenger of Allaah (salLallaahu'alyhi wasallaam) said:
' There will be years of trickery, in which the liar is believed, the truthful is called a liar, the honest is called a traitor, the traitor will be entrusted and the 'rowaybidah' will speak and advise.”
He was asked: Who is the (rowaybidah)?
He (salLallaahu'alyhi wasallaam) said:
“ The impertinent person who will give verdicts to issues of public concern. ” '
- Ahmad 2/291, Ibn Maajah 4042, Saheehah 4/508.
