y do so many people still ASK stupid questions (see above) on Yahoo Answers even when they know they don't get anything out of it? Exactly my point...

- A lot of people do get great answers, and we'd like to return the favor.
- On Yahoo! Answers you get to learn something new every day.
- It feels good to help other people.
- It feels even better to be thanked by other people.
- The points system makes it somewhat addictive.
Personally, I've met a lot of new friends on Yahoo! Answers, and I've learned so much - not just facts but a bit of patience and acceptance as well. I'm reading this question because I'd like to help other people understand what Yahoo! Answers is for and what it can do. The more great users we have contributing to the site, the more I can enjoy the time I spend here.

"The Hour will not be established (1) till two big groups fight each other whereupon there will be a great number of casualties on both sides and they will be following one and the same religious doctrine, (2) till about thirty Dajjals (liars) appear, and each one of them will claim that he is Allah's Apostle, (3) till the religious knowledge is taken away (by the death of Religious scholars) (4) earthquakes will increase in number (5) time will pass quickly, (6) afflictions will appear, (7) Al-Harj, (i.e., killing) will increase, (8) till wealth will be in abundance ---- so abundant that a wealthy person will worry lest nobody should accept his Zakat, and whenever he will present it to someone, that person (to whom it will be offered) will say, 'I am not in need of it, (9) till the people compete with one another in constructing high buildings, (10) till a man when passing by a grave of someone will say, 'Would that I were in his place (11) and till the sun rises from the West. So when the sun will rise and the people will see it (rising from the West) they will all believe (embrace Islam) but that will be the time when: (As Allah said,) 'No good will it do to a soul to believe then, if it believed not before, nor earned good (by deeds of righteousness) through its Faith.' (6.158) And the Hour will be established while two men spreading a garment in front of them but they will not be able to sell it, nor fold it up; and the Hour will be established when a man has milked his she-camel and has taken away the milk but he will not be able to drink it; and the Hour will be established before a man repairing a tank (for his livestock) is able to water (his animals) in it; and the Hour will be established when a person has raised a morsel (of food) to his mouth but will not be able to eat it."

I don't know about the others, but if I think I can help, I will. There are many kinds of rewards besides prizes and money.
