With regard to the order in which the portents of the Hour will appear, there is some difference of opinion among the scholars, the reason being that no such order of events is narrated in the Sunnah. However, the scholars have determined the order of some of the events, as follows:

The appearance of fire in the Hijaz, which appeared in the middle of the 7 th century AH, in 654 AH. This was a great fire, which the scholars who were alive at the time of its appearance and those who came after them described in great detail. Al-Nawawi said: There appeared in our time a fire in Madinah, in the year six hundred and fifty-four. It was a very great fire on the eastern side of Madinah, beyond the Harrah, and knowledge of it was widespread throughout Syria and all lands. Those of the people of Madinah who were present told me about it.
Loss of trust One of the manifestations of loss of trust is people’s affairs being entrusted to those who are not qualified or able for that.
The taking away of knowledge and the prevalence of ignorance ; the taking away of knowledge will occur with the disappearance of the scholars, as it says in al-Sahihayn.
A slave woman giving birth to her mistress , as is stated in al-Sahihayn. There are several views among the scholars as to what this means. The view favoured by Ibn Hajar is that there will be widespread disobedience among children, so that a child will treat his mother as a master treats his slave woman, with negligence and insults.
