With the Hadith
"No time comes but the one after it is worse than it"
We greet you all, dear listeners, everywhere, in a new episode of your program "With the Hadith" and we begin with the best greeting, peace, mercy, and blessings of God be upon you.
It came in Fath al-Bari Sharh Sahih al-Bukhari by Ibn Hajar al-Asqalani with modification in "Chapter: No time comes but the one after it is worse than it".
Muhammad bin Yusuf told us, Sufyan told us, from Al-Zubair bin Adi, who said: "We came to Anas bin Malik and complained to him about what we were facing from Al-Hajjaj, and he said: Be patient, for no time will come upon you but the one after it will be worse than it until you meet your Lord," I heard it from your Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him.
Dear listeners:
Ibn Battal said: This news is one of the signs of prophecy because the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, foretold the corruption of conditions, and that is from the unseen that cannot be known by opinion, but only by revelation. This statement has been questioned, given that some times are less evil than those before them, even if there was nothing in that except the time of Omar bin Abdul Aziz, which was a little after the time of Al-Hajjaj, and the news that was in the time of Omar bin Abdul Aziz was famous. Rather, if it was said that evil disappeared in his time, it would not be far-fetched, let alone being worse than the time before it. Al-Hasan Al-Basri interpreted it as the most frequent, so he was asked about the existence of Omar bin Abdul Aziz after Al-Hajjaj, and he said: People must have a respite. Some have answered that what is meant by preference is the preference of the era as a whole over the era as a whole. The era of Al-Hajjaj had many companions alive, and in the era of Omar bin Abdul Aziz, they became extinct, and the time in which the companions are present is better than the time that follows it, according to his saying - peace and blessings be upon him -: "The best of generations is my generation."
Dear listeners:
No time comes but the one after it is worse than it. Is there a time more evil than this time in which we live? Evil has encompassed us from all sides, until good is hardly seen in it. So, do not be deceived by modern life, do not be deceived by capitalist civilization or urbanization, do not be deceived by technological and scientific progress, industrial progress, or progress in inventing smart bombs that kill people on the card. Do not be deceived by the fact that man has placed his foot on the surface of the moon or Mars, do not be deceived by the highly accurate eavesdropping devices planted everywhere in our lives, which count our breaths, and do not be deceived by the methods of lying, hypocrisy, and political whoring that have been revealed even to the blind among people, and do not be deceived by the beards and chins that have appointed themselves as lawyers for Satan, defending them as if they were angels descending from heaven. Do not be deceived by this and other things, for the time is a time of debauchery and immorality, taken care of by wretched rulers, gangs, and scholars of sultans, who sold themselves for the worldly gains of others. The time is a time of disbelief, the land is a land of disbelief, and the system is a system of disbelief. No time has come upon the nation since the era of the Prophet until now that is more evil than this time. Our rulers create our time as they wish, and the great follower Al-Qasim bin Mukhaymira was right when he said: "Your time is only your sultan, so if your sultan is righteous, your time will be righteous, and if your sultan is corrupt, your time will be corrupt."
O Muslims:
This is the time of compulsion that our noble Messenger - may God bless him and grant him peace - spoke about, a time when we cannot get rid of the evil in it unless we leave it completely and enter into the time of the Second Rightly Guided Caliphate completely, in fulfillment of what the beloved Muhammad - may God bless him and grant him peace - said: "Then there will be a caliphate according to the method of prophecy." Only in this way can we get rid of the evil in which we live. Only in this way can we live life as its Owner, Glory be to Him, intended for us, and other patch-up solutions will only increase the nation's hardship and distance from the book of its Lord, and evil that cannot be predicted when it will disappear. O God, empower us in the land as you empowered those before us.
O God, hasten us with a caliphate that brings together the disunity of the Muslims, relieves them of the affliction they are in. O God, illuminate the earth with the light of your generous face. O God, Amen, Amen.
Dear listeners, until we meet you with another prophetic hadith, we leave you in God's care, and peace, mercy, and blessings of God be upon you.
