My community, both the good and the bad, will be blessed
                             with blessings they have never seen before.
                      (Al-Muttaqi al-Hindi, Al-Burhan fi Alamat al-Mahdi Akhir al-Zaman)



                       Another hadith describes the richness of this period:



                      During the period, the earth will throw out its treasure…
                       (Ibn Hajar Haythami, Al Qawl al-Mukhtasar fi 'alamat al-Mahdi
                                           al-Muntazar)




                       Other hadiths relate that the years of anxiety and distress
                  will end; no one will be in want. No one will even be found to give
                  alms to:


                      Give in charity because there will come a time on the peo-
                      ple when a person will go out with his alms from place to
                            place but will not find anybody to accept it.
                                             (Bukhari)




                        Goods will certainly multiply and flow like water at
                          that time, but nobody will stoop to pick them up.
                                            (Al-Halimi)



                       A notable characteristic of the Golden Age will be the estab-
                  lishment of justice and truth. It will be a time when law and jus-
                  tice reign in the place of anxiety, conflict and injustice. As we read

                  in the hadiths, “The earth will be filled with justice, instead of cru-
                  elty and torture.” (Ahmad Diya’al-Din al-Kamushkhanawi, Ramuz al-
