What is meant by the "fitna" (strife/trial) after which there will be neither repentance nor community, as mentioned in the noble Hadith: "There will be a fitna, then there will be a community, then a fitna and repentance, then a community and repentance," until he mentioned the fourth, "then there will be no repentance and no community"?
