Disappearing Sea of Galilee

The religious way of life is one which insists on respect for
water and which prohibits waste or excessive consumption of
water. Yet the profile of Gog and Magog emerging from the
Ahadīth of Prophet Muhammad (sallalahu alahi wa sallam) is that of a
people who consume water so excessively (and foolishly) that even
the Sea of Galillee in the Holy Land, would eventually become
dry. Hence they are the authors of their own destruction:
. . . the first of them (i.e. Gog and Magog) will pass by Lake Tiberias
(i.e. the Sea of Galilee) and drink out of it, and when the last of them
passes, he will say: There was once water here . . . . (This implies
such excessive consumption of water that nature will not be able to
replenish such water and that the water-level would constantly decrease
until the Lake would dry up).
(Sahīh Muslim)
