Degeneration amongst Politicians
One of the important features of the end times is the emergence
of ruthless, cruel leaders who lead their peoples to disaster.
The 20th century is full of examples of such leaders and
rulers. These individuals, who adopted ideologies far removed
from the moral values of religion, became notorious both
for the cruelties they inflicted and for the sufferings
they caused other societies on account of the wars and fighting
they caused. Attention is drawn to this situation in the
hadith.
The communist dictator of Mao had thousands of citizens
killed solely for opposing him, and was responsible for
the deaths of millions throughout his regime.
Under the influence of fascist ideology Mussolini led his
people to a terrible disaster by dragging his country into
World War II.
Mobutu has gone down in history as one of the most ruthless
dictators of the African continent.
