Jabr Ibn Nouf narrates that I told Abu\nSaeed Khidri (a late companion of the Prophet): I swear there is no new year\nunless it is worse than last year and new Emirs are only worse than their\npredecessor. Abu Saeed said: I heard the same thing from the Messenger of Allah\n(PBUH&HP) but I also heard this from him: You (Muslims) will continue to\nhave such situation until when new generations are born they see (recognize)\nnothing but tyranny and hardship and oppression will be everywhere on the\nearth\u2026 Then Allah will send a man from [me and] my progeny who will fill the\nearth with justice as it has been filled with tyranny. [and then] The earth\nwill lavish its bounties and he will offer it to people while he does not need\nto count, and this is when the true Islam will reside [the world].\u201d1<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cMahdi will\nreturn what is taken unwillingly from the usurpers such that if he has to pull\na teeth to retun something to the rightful owner\u201d2 (meaning what is usurped\nfrom the people will be taken back regardless of where they are; even if it is\nunder the teeth of a usurper).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Narrated by Barid Ejli: \u201cA companion\ntold Imam al-Baqir (PBUH): Our companions are many in Kuda and if you demand\nanything from them, they will be fully obedient. Imam said: Is it a tradition\namongst them that if a man needs money, he can go to his brother and collect\nfrom his brother\u2019s pocket what he needs? The companion said: No my lord. Imam\nal-Baqir (PBUH) said: If they are not generous with their wealth then they are\nmuch more greedy for their life and blood. Then he continued: When the Awaited\none rises, true and genuine friendship will occur. Thus one will go to his\nbrother and comfortably takes what he needs in wealth from his brother and\nthere will be no prevention from the owner.\u201d3<\/p>\n\n\n\n
These narrations depict the situation\nof society and people at the time of reappearance of Imam Mahdi. His\ngovernment, once completed, will rule the whole world. And naturally such world\nwill be needless of monetary items and money as everyone\u2019s needs will be taken\ncare of. This would be the situation where everything is done for free and the\nonly goal of people would be to grow spiritually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
