The societies lacking quality are bound to go down. Allah makes societies lacking quality go down. At the time of the Prophet Solomon (pbuh) there was modernity, beauty, aesthetics, arts, joy and happiness. Allah made them prevail in the world. It was the same in the time of Dhul-Qarnayn; they have had joy, beauty, happiness, aesthetics and science. Allah made them rule the world. Other than that Allah did not let them. There had always been a destruction and devastation. The reason for that is bigotry. - Harun Yahya
