the Prophet told someone in a dream that chaos and turmoil in the world are because of three things: tv, music and free mixing. if we carry on with these the entire world will be destroyed. by watching films and leering at men and women on the tv, the entire home is commiting adultery and inviting destruction. Anas May Allah be pleased with him says, “I went into the presence of Aishah, may Allah be pleased with our mother, whilst someone else was seated with her. The person asked, ‘O Mother of the believers, relate to us regarding earthquakes’ She turned her face away. I (Anas) asked her, ‘Relate to us regarding earthquakes, O Mother of the believers!’ She said, “O Anas, if I were to inform you thereof, you will live a sorrowful life and you will die in this state of grief and you will be raised on the Day of Judgement whilst this fear is in your heart.” I said, “O Mother, relate to me.” She then said, “When a woman removes her clothes in a house other than her husbands, she tears the veil between her and Allah. When she applies perfume to please a male other than her husband, for her is fire and disgrace. Then when the people begin to commit adultery, consume alcohol and use musical instruments, Allah becomes enraged in the heavens and orders the Earth to shake them. If they repent and refrain (it is good for them), otherwise Allah will cause it to fall upon them.” I asked, “Is this their punishment?” She said, “It is rather a mercy, means of blessings and admonishment for the believers, and a punishment, display of anger and torment for the unbelievers.” (Hakim in al-Mustadrak)
