1. Khasf meaning that there will be three places where the earth will
open up and men will be buried alive. One will be in the west, one in
the east and one in Arabia.

3. There will be a large exploitation of illiteracy.

4. There will be great use of alcohol and adultery to such a shameful extent that it will be as common as donkeys eating grass.

6. There will be a lot of goods.

8. Men will listen to their women and not their parents. They will stay
in close contact with their friends and stay away from their parents.

9. There will be great use of music.

10. People will curse their ancestors and speak ill of them.

11. The wrongdoers and non-capable will be made leaders.

12. Degraded people, who could not find cheap clothing, will own large mansions.

14. To stay in Islam will be so difficult as it is difficult to hold
hot ash in the hand. Up till the extent that a person will go the
cemetery and wish that they were in that grave.

Do you know the story of noah's arc?

basically a man is told by God the world is going to be flooded to wash away all the bad things and tells him to build a huge boat, gather two of every animal and be ready...

I Recently was talking to someone who said he actully heard a translation that said his world will be flooded, meaning his town.

Steve wrote:my point was interpretation can compleatly change the meaning of something in a way im more intrested in everyones individual (or not) interpretation of islam and the Qu'ran

Steve wrote:well i know the arabic hasnt changed but i dont think arabic would be your first launguage and even if it was, launguage evolves over time and how do you know the translation between arabic and english is perfect, Im not picking holes in the Qur'an i just question sources, especially if they are important
