PII may be u just expressed some confusion on this thread, Insh a Allah I will try to make it simpler:
The hadeeth goes as follows:
Narrated Abdullah Ibn Omar that the Messenger salla Allah a`alyhee wa sallam came to us saying O people of Muhajereen (immigrants) there are five issues if you will be inflicted with them and I seek refuge to Allah that you would not be available when they occur, never fornication would spread among people till they commit it publicly except that <b>plague and other unprecedented diseases which was never experienced before among their predecessors would spread and prevail</b>
Now u understand why HIV (AIDs) and cancer rate increased and even appeared.
never people decrease the measure and scale except that they are inflicted with food deficiency <b>and unjust rulers</b>,
See that is why I never complain about Honsi Mubarak or other Muslim rulers, it is the fruit of our actions. People must be committing this sin of wrong measuring and scaling.
never people refrain from paying Zakat for their money except that they would be denied rain from sky and if it was not for animals they would have never received rain,
never people violate the covenant of Allah and His Messenger except that Allah <b>Sends on them an enemy from outside to take part of what is in their hands, </b>
For the same reason I dont complain about US strikes and invasion of many Muslim countries taking their wealth. Again it is the fruit of violating the convenant of Allah and His Messenger.
and when their rulers don’t rule with the book of Allah and start selecting from what Allah revealed except that Allah instills their torture among them.” (reported by Ibn Majeh)
Again that is why u see Muslims are not in agreement all the time because their rulers are shopping around the book of Allah
Hope i helped PII
