The Loss of Blessing In Time | Signs of the Hour Ep. 17

About this lecture

In this episode of Signs of the Hour, the speaker explores the prophetic sign of time losing its barakah (blessing) — drawing on a well-known Hadith in which the Prophet ﷺ described a year feeling like a month, a month like a week, and so on until time burns away like dry grass. Through the analysis of Imam Ibn Hajar rahimahullah, the lecture identifies three causes of this phenomenon — loss of blessing, literal changes in time, and the overwhelming abundance of distractions — and offers practical spiritual remedies, including Quran recitation, morning dhikr, and intentional slowness near sin.
