SHAFAQNA – It is narrated from the Prophet of Islam (PBUH) who said: Whenever five characteristics appear amongst you, five calamities will be inflicted on you. Whenever adultery appears/transpires amongst you, violent earthquakes will follow. And whenever usury is practiced, sinking in the land will follow. And whenever Zakat is not paid, the cattle will be destroyed. And when the ruler oppresses, the shortage of rain happens. And whenever agreements and promises are broken, polytheists (Moshriks) will gain victory over Muslims [1].
