Surely the truth...
Surely the truth, had it been pure, there would have been no differing, and had the falsehood been pure, there would have been no fear about the one with the proof, but they take a fistful from this and a fistful from this, so they are mixed together. So that is where the Satan -la rules over his -la friends, and the ones for whom goodness has preceded from Allah -azwj escape from this.
The people will flow towards it (fitna) and take it as a Sunnah. So if something is altered therein, they will say, ‘The Sunnah has been altered’, and the people would have become deniers. Then the affliction would intensify, and the offspring would become captivated and the ‘Fitna’ (strife) would consume them just as the fire consumes the firewood, or just as the millstone grinds upon its lower base.
And they would learn the Laws for the sake of other than Allah -azwj , and they would learn for the sake of other than doing good deeds, and they will be coveting the world instead of working for the Hereafter.
