‘Allah gives respite to the wrongdoer, then when He seizes him, He
does not let him go.” Then he recited: “Such is the Seizure of
your
Lord when He seizes the (population of) towns while they are
doing
wrong.”

“I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
say:
‘Allah will question His slave on the Day of Resurrection,
until He
says: “What kept you from denouncing evil when you saw
it?” When Allah
grants His slave a response, he will say: “O
Lord, I hoped for Your
mercy but I feared the people.”

“The Messenger
of
Allah (ﷺ) turned to us and said: ‘O Muhajirun, there are five
things
with which you will be tested, and I seek refuge with Allah
lest you
live to see them: Immorality never appears among a people to
such an
extent that they commit it openly, but plagues and diseases
that were
never known among the predecessors will spread among them.
They do not
cheat in weights and measures but they will be stricken
with famine,
severe calamity and the oppression of their rulers. They
do not
withhold the Zakah of their wealth, but rain will be withheld
from the
sky, and were it not for the animals, no rain would fall on
them. They
do not break their covenant with Allah and His Messenger,
but Allah
will enable their enemies to overpower them and take some
of what is
in their hands. Unless their leaders rule according to the
Book of
Allah and seek all good from that which Allah has revealed,
Allah will
cause them to fight one another.’”
