The PROPHESY OF the ABANDONMENT OF THE KAABA AND ITS
SINISTER EFFECTS IN TRADITIONS
One of the sinister events happening at the end of the world causing spread of oppression in the human societies is the closing of Hajj and the abandonment of the Kaaba.

Speaking of the events happening before the reappearance of Imam Mahdi (may Allah expedite his reappearance), Imam Sadiq (a.s) has said: ورَأَيتَ بيتَ اللهِ قَد عُطِّلَ ويُؤمَرُ بتَرْكِهِ... فكُنْ على حَذَرٍ واطْلبْ إلى اللهِ النّجاةَ واعْلَم أنّ الناسَ في سَخَطِ اللهِ عزّ وجلّ... ?(When) you see that Allah's House is closed down and the Hajj rites are abandoned, beware you; supplicate to Allah to be safe from His punishment, for people are at this time subject to Allah's wrath.?1

HAJJ, GOD'S RIGHT TO MAN AND MAN'S GRATEFULNESS TO HIM
وَللهِ عَلى النّاسِ حِجُّ البَيْتِ مَنِ اسْتَطاعَ إِليهِ سَبيلاً؛ وَمَنْ كَفَرَ فَإِنَّ اللهَ غَنيٌّ عَنِ العَالَمِينَ. ?? and pilgrimage to the House is incumbent upon men for the sake of Allah, (upon) every one who is able to undertake the journey to it; and whoever disbelieves, then surely Allah is Self-Sufficient, above any need of the worlds (The Holy Quran; 3:97)?
This Quranic Verse reveals God's right to men. In the same way that every benefactor has a right, and the person who has been favored tries to make up for his benefactor's beneficence and pay a visit to his house to express his thanks, it is the duty of people to make pilgrimage to God's House to offer their thanks to Him.
