119. The Greening of the Deserts

The Day of Judgment will not come
until there are rivers and gardens
in Arabia. (Ibn Ahmad Hanbal,
Musnad, vol. 17, p. 22, no. 8819)
The Day of Judgment will not come
until there are rivers and streams

in Arabia. (Mukhtasar Tazkirah al-
Qurtubi, p. 471)

Another technological development pointing to the abundance
available during the End Times is the greening of the deserts. If we
consider that 43 percent of the Earth's land surface is comprised of
deserts, then we can easier understand the importance of agricultur-
al technology. Production now can be carried out even on the driest
soil, as water is brought to infertile deserts. If this advanced technol-
ogy is implemented in all deserts, then many countries on the brink
of starvation will acquire productive lands. This, of course, requires
considerable technology.
To green the deserts, sufficient amounts of water and land must

be obtained. One relevant technology now being developed is com-
puter-controlled irrigation. This enables water to be sent directly to
the plant's roots so that not a single drop is wasted. Given that puri-
fied water is a crucial element of desert agriculture, flood and sea wa-
ter forms the basis of agricultural technology. In this way, vast water
resources will be obtained, a development that also will be a major
