Question

The question text was not published separately; the title stands in for it.

There has not been any nation on Earth as strong as America (it is claimed). Are there any Ahadith that point towards this 1500 years ago?

Answer

We have not come across any Hadith referring to that. However, the Qur'aan speaks about the might and strength of the nations of Aad and Thamud.

According to the descriptions of might and strength of the nations of Aad and Thamud in the Qur'aan, they superceded the might and strength of America but Allah Ta'ala destroyed them within moments of time due to their disobedience in Allah.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
