Ahadith Not Chronologically Arranged in This Work
Abu Hurairah said, The Prophet said, “There are two types among the people of Hell whom I have not yet seen. The first are people who have whips like the tails of oxen, with which they beat people, and the second are women who are naked in spite of being dressed; they will be led astray and will lead others astray, and their heads will look like camels humps. These women will not enter Paradise; they will not even experience the faintest scent of it, even though the fragrance of Paradise can be perceived from such a great distance.”
The Ullumah agree this has already occurred, the hairstyle mentioned was famous in the 60’s and 70’s and is current today, it is probable the prophet (pbuh) was referring to the feminist movement that swept the world as he said “they will be led astray and will lead others astray” indicating they will be taught and will teach others suggesting a movement. The feminist began as something idealistic but turned into something worse, its founder an educated women denounced the movement later in her life when it turned away from defending women’s rights and became about liberation from morals and religion.
Abd Allaah bin ‘Amr said “I heard the Apostle of Allaah (saw): “There will be emigration after emigration and the people who are best will be those who cleave most closely to places which Abraham (as) migrated (Syria).The worst of its people will remain in the earth cast out by their lands (remain in their own lands), abhorred (cursed) by Allaah, collected along with apes and swine by fire.”
The Prophet (pbuh) said: A people will come from the Direction of Faris (Persia or Iran today), and will say : ‘O Arabians! You have become to fanatical! If you do not recognize their rights properly, nobody will be with you…One day let it be given to you, and one day to them, and let these mutual promises be kept…’they will go to Mutik (the name of a mountain in the region), and Muslims will descend from there to yazi (the Iranian Plain)…The Polytheists will stand on the other side by the banks of the pitch black river known as the Rakabe (an area rich in oil wells)…there will be war between them: Allah will withhold the victory from both armies. (Portents of Doomsday, Barzanji, p 179)
The Iran and Iraq war as the hadith says Allah withheld victory from both sides, a portion of the war took place in the exact area our prophet (pbuh) mentioned. Iran and Iraq fought for control over the Arvand Rout or Shatt al Arab waterway (an important shipping lane for oil exports), in 1969 Iran Abrogated it’s 1937 pact with Iraq over the waterway due to both countries change in leadership and increased hostility between them and ceased paying tolls to Iraq (by claiming international standards and) since almost all the ships that used the waterway where Iranian the old treaty was not fair. This caused the major tensions between the countries in modern times. Ayatollah Khomeni and the people of Iran after the Iran revolution said to the Iraqi leadership exactly what our Prophet (pbuh) said, You have become fanatical or oppressors, they believed that Iraqi’s should have followed Iran’s example and rose up against the dictatorship and established an Islamic government. Iraq finally invaded Iran in 1980 only to have a neither side win the war by 1988.
‘Urwah related that Usaamah ibn Zaid said, “The Prophet overlooked a high structure from the structures of Madeenah, and he said, ‘Do you see what I see?’ They said, ‘No.’ He said, “For indeed I see the trial falling in your homes like the falling of the rain.” (Bukhaaree and Muslim)
While looking at a building the prophet referred to the fitnah of television and radio since the television signal would pass over the houses in a similar manner as the simile, and this is more than likely the case since in another hadith it mentions that this is how the Fitnah of the Duhaimma would enter every home.
It has been related that Abu Hurairah reported this Hadeeth from the Prophet: “Time will converge (it means that people will not be blessed in their time, and so the day and night will go by quickly for them); knowledge will decrease; miserliness and avarice will remain; trials will appear; and Al-Haraj will increase.” The Companions asked, “O Messenger of Allah, and what is it?” He said, “Killing, killing.” (Ibn Kathir in al Bidaya wal Nihaya)
Jaabir also related that he heard the Messenger of Allah say, “Indeed before the Hour there are liars; among them is the one of Al-Yamaamah, the one of San’aa Al-‘Absee, and the one of Himyar. Also among them is Ad-Dajjaal, he creates the most Fitnah (trials and tribulations).” Jaabir said, “Some of my companions say that they are almost thirty men.” (Ahmad)
Abu Hurairah related that the Messenger of Allah said, “The Hour will not come to pass until thirty Dajjaal Liars come out; each one of them lies upon Allah and upon His Messenger” (Abu Dagwood)
