The heaviness and the becoming heavy

Pages on an old and modern phenomenon, which is the phenomenon of transportation and burdening. The early scholars addressed it through writing, and they covered much of what falls within this phenomenon, and they brought about what is available to them of the effects, news, and poetry. And it - in most of it - revolves around criticizing the heavy and the burdened, mentioning their characteristics, joking about them, and what is faced by those afflicted with them of harm and hardship. And few of those writings seek to treat that phenomenon, and how to accommodate their people, and what the situation and decency require in dealing with them. There is still remaining in the topic, and the signs of heaviness and burdening still spread among people, and their manifestations still appear in their communities; as people are judged by the extent of the corruption they cause, as Umar ibn Abdul Aziz says.
