The term jahiliyyah is derived from the verbal root jahala "to be ignorant or stupid, to act stupidly. Also means barbarism, thuggery and ruthlessness.

An era when there was serious impingement on human rights by modern standard

.......women, as a general rule, had virtually no legal status; fathers sold their daughters into marriage for a price, the husband could terminate the union at will, and women had little or no property or succession rights.

In those “Days of Jahiliyyah ”, female infanticide was commonplace. If girls and women were deemed worthy of living, they had no rights and were treated mostly as objects to possess, vessels for breeding and outlets for pleasure.

....those days before one-off 'women's rights revolution' there

...when dedicated ones spent over 10 years to preach values, morals and behaviour.

........long before talking about the roles and responsibilities of individuals, civil society and the state.

Only by going back to these basics - the resurrection of those values and behaviour, there can br hope if we are to turn the tide against extremism, barbarism and chaos reminiscent of the “Days of Jahiliyyah ”.

History has been falsified and twisted. Carbon dating doesn't lie. The claim of giving an exalted status to women is an exaggeration.

Khadija was readily a successful businesswoman, having inherited wealth long before her conversion. Property rights for women had existed in so-called Age of Jahiliyyah

In terms of astrology, 1AD to 2000AD stanza-age was Pisces the Fish, which favoured religious hierachies, secret societies, monasteries, and spiritual transcendence - as represented by the archetypal forces of the planet Neptune. The darker side of Pisces includes dictatorial theocracies, espionage, hidden enemies and reveres illusions over truth. Characteristic of a Piscean Age are the dreams of imaginary heavens and hells, he surrender of intelligence to father figures, blind faith, denial of wolves in sheep's clothing and the worship obsession. The Piscean nightmare is hidden behind every morality, every law and knee-jerk tradition that has outlived its use in sapiens evolution, yet is blindly worshipped.

Yes. We are in an era full of treachery, deceit, thuggery and all kinds of criminal and vice theme.

This violent era began 5000 years ago and also called as Kali Yuga by the Hindus. In this era, bad guys will have good time. It is also full of bloodshed and tears.

This era last for 432000 years. The first 10000 years of this Kali Yuga is referred to "golden times" where some sanity will prevail. After that, all hell breaks loose.

Mind you, it last for 432000 years!

Our present stanza-age is the Age of Aquarius - symbolized by the spiritual master as water bearer. He imparts impersonal artificial intelligence and oceanic consciousness online. What flows from his urn is not water, but electric. He is atmosphere, enlightenment. Also sexual freedom. Striving for balance is very important as a sudden jolt to sapiens' collective conscious mind will either bring on an experience of impersonal enlightening spiritual journey to man, or collective delusion, irrationality and insanity. Aquarius see polarities become complementaries.

The Kali Yuga is thought by some authors to last 6480 years although other duration have been proposed.

It is the lowest instincts that stimulate the men of the Kali Yuga, they prefer false ideas, they do not hesitate to persecute the sages, desire torments them, neglect, illness, hunger, the fear spread.

False doctrines and misleading writings spread in the age of Kali People are afraid because they neglect the rules taught by the wise and do not perform the rites correctly anymore.

Many good ones will perish. The number of farmers will gradually diminish. Most of the new leaders are of neihbour country's slave origin, they will persecute the rational ones and those who have wisdom.

The slaves want to play the role of intellectuals, the intellectuals that of slaves. Thieves become kings and kings become thieves. Rare are virtuous women. Promiscuity, incest and homosexuality extend.

The powerful take over public goods and stop protecting the people. High tech reaches the hands of people who are not worthy of it - the dangerous secrets of the sciences.

Teachers are debased by selling their religious knowledgeq, the states pay for it and the poverty and unemployment rates continue to increase. At the end of the Yuga, the number of women increases and the number of men decreases.

Good men withdraw from public offices and GLC posts.

The sacraments and religion are sold and commercialized. The rain is erratic. The merchants dishonest. Severe droughts and haze - the different regions - uncontrolled and not preventable.

People who beg or seek employment are becoming more numerous. Nobody stops slanderous remarks and thuggeries, nobody keeps their word. Majority is envious of minority - richness in wealth, freedom and down-to-earth knowledge. People without morals preach virtue to others. Censorship reigns. Criminal associations such as RELA are formed in cities and towns.....but they harass and extort money from local business people.

The thieves will rob the thieves. Few good men will become lethargic and inactive,

Viral pandemic and lifestyle diseases will torment men.

The rites will perish in the hands of men without virtues. People who practice errant rites will spread everywhere. Unskilled people will study the sacred texts and will be self-proclaimed expert. Being a wanted fugitive in native country could be granted permanent resident in distant country.

End of Kali yuga Controversy
In all honesty there is wide controversy, between Astrologers, about the time the Kali Yuga will end, and even some Astronomers have jump into the fray!

Some say it already started in on 26th July 2014 at 3:11:00 p.m., others not until 2,025 when artificial intelligence take over premiership, and many others into different dates, as far as thousands of years into the future!

Satya Yuga comes after Kali Yuga. The sages occupied by the wicked wretches will once more be the homes of men devoted to truth - away from delusion, falsehood and irrationality. Men in general will begin to honor and practice truth.

From the Age of Jahiliyyah to the Age of Jahiliyyah II

Escape tiger's mouth, but just right into the croc's. Out of Jahiliyyah, got trapped in fundamentalism.

Fundamentalism is strongly correlated with what psychologists and neuroscientists call “magical thinking,” which refers to making connections between actions and events when no such connections exist in reality.

Without magical thinking, fundamentalism can’t survive, nor can it replicate itself. Another cognitive impairment we see in those with extreme fundamentalist views is a greater reliance on intuitive rather than reflective or analytic thought, which frequently leads to incorrect assumptions since intuition is often deceiving or overly simplistic.

Forgetting the 600AD moral and ideology revolution in the middle east at that time was about honesty, moderation and efficient governance

At the beginning, justice, equality, mercy, tolerance and forgiveness had been made as the fundamental values to abide to!

Modern day's Jahiliyyah when majority condone

1. Covert kleptocracy
2. Acts of treachery
3. Openly back door power robbery
4. Back door policies
5. Acceptance of discriminative practices
6. Tolerance to inequality

........without demanding stoning of the culprits

Malaysia and Singapore started on nearly the same footing more than 60 years ago. One was more at a disadvantage because they had no natural resources. Today, it was the other one that got retarded, poverty-striken and torn by racial and religious politics.

The quality of the debates of the Members of Parliament from both government and opposition is clearly extremely low. This gives a very slim hope for the country to become a developed country. Cannot compare to a little country like Singapore, Let alone to the level of Japan and the West.

Still Stuck in the Age of Jahiliyyah - IT'S ALL CARGO CULTISM AFTER ALL

During the war the cargo cultists saw airplanes land with lots of good materials, and they want the same thing to happen continuously. So they've arranged to imitate things like runways, to put fires along the sides of the runways, to make a wooden hut for a man to sit in, with two wooden pieces on his head like headphones and bars of bamboo sticking out like antennas — he's the controller — and they wait for the airplanes to land. They're doing everything right. The form is perfect. It looks exactly the way it looked before. But it doesn't work. No free food supply being dropped by noisy big "birds" vrooming over the sky of their villages.

Children must be coached to be sceptic, scientific and stay far away from any type of cargo cult, i.e. dom't mimic the behaviour of blissful people without truly understand what made them successful in the first place.

For example, simply the degree of English mastery could determine a person's successful employment and climbing of corporate ladder without entering through back door or pulling string.
