        pas sion ate that in his time nobody will be awok en out
        of sleep and nobod y's nose will bleed.
                     (Al-Haythami, Al-Qawl al-Mukhtasar, p. 42)

         ALL CONFLICTS AND DISAGREEMENTS
         WILL END
        Earth will be filled with peace, just as a bowl is filled
        with water. No enmi ty will remain between any one. All
        enmi ty, con flict, and dis a gree ment will sure ly van ish.
                                     (Sahih Muslim, 1:136)
        The bat tle will aban don its load (arms and equip ment).
                                  (Sunan Ibn Majah, 10:334)
        War will aban don its load (name ly, arms and the like).
                        (Mukhtasar Tazkirah al-Qurtubi, p. 496)
        He will do away with enmi ty and hatred. The venom will
        be removed from poi son ous ani mals. Even a small boy
        will place his hand in a ser pent's mouth, and the ser -
        pent will not harm him. The wolf will be like a dog in a
        herd of sheep or goats.
                               (Sunan Ibn Majah, pp. 331-35)

        In his time, the wolf will play with the sheep and snakes
        will not harm chil dren. A per son will sow a hand ful of
        seed and will receive back 700 hand fuls of grain.
                      (al-Haythami, Al-Qawl al-Mukhtasar, p. 43)
