98. Spread of Cursing and Abuse
The End Times is a period of widespread cursing and abuse
among people. This situation is expressed as follows:
In the Last Days, there will be
such people, who, when they
meet, curse and abuse each other
instead of greeting [with
salaam]. (Jalal ad-Din as-Suyuti,
Durre-Mansoor)
The community of the
faithful will be on a favor-
able path until they encounter
three things: Until goodness disap-
pears, until immoral children grow in num-
ber, and until essekkarun appears amongst them…
They asked what is essekkarun? They answered, a generation
that will emerge in the End Times, among whom greetings will
be regarded as vile oaths. (Muhammad ibn `Abd ar-
Rasul Barzanji, Al-Isha`ah li Ashrat as-
Sa`ah, pp. 141-42)
