5.28 陷入不道德的深渊
5.28 The Plunge Into Immorality
艾布·胡莱赖(Abū Hurayrah)传述:先知ﷺ说:将来会出现这样一些女人,她们穿着衣服却如同赤裸,走路扭着身段摇曳生姿,头上顶着形似驼峰的东西,身体歪向一边。她们永远不会进入乐园,甚至闻不到乐园的芬芳,尽管乐园的芬芳可以从这么远那么远的距离闻到。327
Abū Hurayrah narrates that the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said that there will emerge in the future “women who are clothed yet naked, walking with an enticing gait, with something on their heads that looks like the humps of camels, leaning to one side. They will never enter Paradise or even smell its fragrance, although its fragrance can be detected from such and such a distance.”327
难道不令人惊叹吗?他不仅预言了她们暴露的着装,甚至还预言了女性的发型。先知ﷺ还说,穆斯林社群中也会有人跟随这些潮流。"我的民众末世将出现一些骑着战车的人,他们实际上是伪男人;他们会在清真寺门口放下他们的女人,她们穿着衣服却是裸露的。她们头上梳着像瘦骆驼驼峰一样的发式。"在过去也确实发生过这种情况,正如阿尔-纳瓦维在谈到他所处的前现代社会时所断言的那样。而如今,要找到一个在意自己所骑"战车"的品牌和"马力"的穆斯林男子,反而不那么困难了,可是对于自己的女人在公共场合的暴露衣着,他却毫不在意。
Is it not remarkable how he not only foretold their provocative dress, but even predicted women’s hairstyles? The Prophet also stated that even Muslim communities would participate in some of these trends. “There will be in the end of my nation men who ride chariots who are in reality pseudo-men; they will drop off their women, at the gates of the mosques, who are clothed and yet naked. Upon their heads will be the likes of a lean camel’s hump.”328 While this occurred in the past as well, as al-Nawawī asserts about his own premodern society, it is even less difficult now to find a Muslim man who is protective of what brand of “chariot” he rides and its “horse-power” but not protective of his women and their revealing attire in public.
‘Abdullāh ibn ‘Umar 传述,安拉的使者ﷺ也预言了充斥性内容的流行文化将带来的后果:“淫乱在一个民族中盛行到公开为之的程度,就必定会在他们中间流行前人从未有过的瘟疫。”329 性放纵与性传播疾病之间的联系,是今天任何明智的人都无法否认的。或许,这种不顾后果、肆无忌惮地追求性享乐的风气,也与下面这段预言有关:“将来会有一个女人被带去,剖开她的腹部,然后取出她子宫里的东西并将其丢弃,因为她怕生育。”330 据《古特马赫研究所期刊》发表的一项广泛调查,“害怕生活发生剧烈改变”是当今堕胎最常见的原因,超过一半的受访者以单身母亲身份作为这种恐惧的理由。331 这段圣训中另一个引人注目的暗示是,将来从子宫中取出胎儿对母亲而言将几乎没有多大风险。
‘Abdullāh ibn ‘Umar narrated that the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم also predicted the consequences of a hypersexualized popular culture; “And fornication never becomes prevalent among a people, to the degree that they practice it openly, except that epidemics become rampant among them which had never before existed in their ancestors.”329 The link between sexual permissiveness and sexually transmitted diseases is not something any sensible person in our times can deny. Perhaps the unhinged pursuit of sexual gratification without liability is behind this next prophecy as well; “A woman will one day be taken and have her abdomen cut open, then what is inside her womb will be taken and discarded, out of fear of having children.”330 According to an extensive survey published in Guttmacher Institute Journal, the “fear of dramatic life changes” is by far the most common reason for abortions today, with more than half of those surveyed citing single motherhood as the reason for that fear.331 Another remarkable presumption in this hadith is that, one day, removing a fetus from the womb will be without much risk to the mother.
这种情况直到近代才成为可能,而在不久之前,这样做是极其危险的。因此,历史上通常只有在母亲已经死亡或垂危的情况下才会进行剖腹产。
This has only been possible recently in human history and would have been extremely dangerous in the recent past. For this reason, a Caesarean section was usually not performed in history except on a dead or dying mother.
最后,阿卜杜拉·本·阿慕尔传述,先知ﷺ说:“直到人们像驴子交配一样在街头交配,末日才会来临。”我问:“这真的会发生吗?”他说:“是的,这一定会发生。”332 虽然这被列为末日来临前的最后迹象之一,出现在重大的末日大事之后,但我们许多现代文化显然正朝着那种无耻的程度发展,即便不是已经身处其中。
Finally, ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Amr narrates that the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said, “The Hour will not commence until people mate in the streets just as donkeys mate.” I asked, “Will that really happen?” He said, “Yes, it most certainly will happen.”332 Though this was stated as one of the last signs before the Day of Judgment, following major apocalyptic events, many of our modern cultures are clearly moving towards that degree of shamelessness, if not experiencing it already.
