5.24 Farovonlik va hedonizm qiyomat oldidan
5.24 Prosperity And Hedonism Before The End Times
Abu Hurayra rivoyat qiladi: Allohning Elchisi ﷺ shunday dedilar: "Qiyomat qoim bo'lmaydi, to mol-dunyo ko'payib, to'lib-toshmaguncha, shunday bo'ladiki, kishi o'z mol-dunyosidan chiqarilgan zakotni olib boradi, lekin uni qabul qiladigan birorta odam topa olmaydi, va Arabiston yerlari yana o'tloq va daryolarga aylanmaguncha."317 Bu bashoratning avval ham o'ziga xos ko'rinishlari bo'lganini tan olgan holda, bugungi "birinchi dunyo" mamlakatlaridagi hayot tarzi shuni ko'rsatadiki, odamlar insoniyat tarixida qayd etilgan davrlarning 99,9 foizidan ko'ra ko'proq farovonlik ichida yashamoqda.
Abū Hurayrah reports that the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم said, “The Hour will not commence before wealth becomes abundant and overflowing, to the point that a man brings out the charity due on his wealth and cannot find anyone to accept it from him, and to the point that Arabia’s lands will revert back to being meadows and rivers.”317 While acknowledging earlier manifestations of this prophecy about unprecedented affluence, current lifestyles in today’s “first world” illustrate that they live in greater luxury than 99.9% of recorded human history.
Hatto moliyaviy qiyinchilik tortayotganlar ham uyida har qanday qadimgi shoh taxtidan ham qulayroq kreslolarda o‘tiradi, devorlaridagi iqlim qurilmalari va bir oy davom etadigan azobli sayohatni bir necha qiziqarli soatga aylantirgan transport vositalaridan foydalanadi. Bundan ham qiziqroq narsa shuki, Payg‘ambar ﷺ boylik ko‘pligi bilan bir qatorda Arabistonning qishloq xo‘jaligidagi o‘zgarishini ham aytib o‘tganlar.030 o‘n to‘rt asr avval, hozirgi zamon texnologiyasi bilan yaqinda ixtiro qilingan keng ko‘lamli sug‘orish usullarini tasavvur qilish mumkin emas edi. Biz esa bu geologik hodisaning guvohi bo‘lish imkoniyatiga ega bo‘lgan ilk avlodmiz.
Even those financially struggling enjoy recliners at home that are cozier than any ancient king’s royal throne, and climate controls on their walls, and access to modes of transport that have turned an excruciating month-long journey into a few entertaining hours. Perhaps even more intriguing is the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم mentioning the agricultural transformation of Arabia in the same context as the surplus of wealth. Fourteen centuries ago, the extensive irrigation methods recently invented through modern technology were inconceivable. We are the very first generations privileged to witness this geological phenomenon.
318 Shuningdek, bu bilan bog'liq mo''jiza shundaki, Payg'ambar ﷺ Arabistonda bir vaqtlar o'tloqlar va daryolar mavjud bo'lganini bilganlar.
318 Furthermore, a related miracle here is the Prophet’s صلى الله عليه وسلم awareness that Arabia once contained meadows and rivers.
Arabiston "Bo‘sh chorak"ining qotib qolgan loyida minglab yillar oldin toshga aylangan gippopotam tishlari, buyvol suyaklari va midiya chig‘anoqlari to‘la.319
The petrified mud of Arabia’s “Empty Quarter” is replete with hippopotamus teeth, buffalo bones, and clam shells fossilized thousands of years ago.319
