Is there a Hadith from the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, that says: "A time will come upon people when the boy will marry as the woman marries"?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

This hadith was narrated by Al-Daylami with the wording: "A time will come upon people when a man will marry as a woman marries," on the authority of Abu Hurayrah. We have not found a ruling on its authenticity or weakness. Al-Ajlouni mentioned it in "Kashf al-Khafa" without commentary, which may indicate its weakness, knowing that Al-Daylami's book often contains weak hadiths. Al-Suyuti explicitly stated that what is reported in Al-Daylami's book is weak, unless it is strengthened by multiple chains of narration, thereby becoming hasan li ghayrihi (good due to external support).
