I still remember there was an "ulamat Islam" said, or rather predicted few years back that the world is gonna change in coming years because of human's behaviour towards the earth... he said to the effect that there will be more natural disasters of water, wind and fire... not only this, some other teaching also predicted the similar things also... floods did occured in some places and now the Tsunami is hitting South Asia... some say these are signals from GOD... is the world gonna end? one said it's 2016, but some other predictors said further... just hope it's not so soon... we still have a loong long way to go...
Reading bbc news from net, only i know there were so many victims and lifes been taken away in these few hundred years. Scary numbers!
