Abd Allah ibn Umar (RA) said, The Prophet (SAW) came to us and said, O Muhajirun, (emigrants from Makkah to al- Madinah) you may be afflicted by five things; Allah forbid that you should live to see them. 1. If fornication should become widespread, you should realise that this has never happened without new diseases befalling the people which their forebears never suffered. 2. If people should begin to cheat in weighing out goods, you should realise that this has never happened without drought and famine befalling the people, and their rulers oppressing them. 3. If people should withhold Zakat, you should realise that this has never happened without the rain being stopped from falling; and were it not for the animals sake, it would never rain again. 4. If people should break their covenant with Allah and His Messenger, you should realise that his has never happened without Allah sending an enemy against them to take some of their possessions by force. 5. If the leaders do not govern according to the Book of Allah, you should realise that this has never happened without Allah making them into groups and making them fight one another. (Ibn Majah).
