Signs of the Last Hour - Day of Judgement

Day Of Judgement

The rising of the Sun from the West

Then a time will come, when a night will be very long. People and animals will become anxious. People will be frightened and will pray to Allah for the forgiveness of their sins. This night will be as long as three nights. After this night the sun will rise from the West with a dim light and with it the doors of forgiveness will close. No one can become Muslim after this. The Sun will come out from the West for only one day. Then it will continue to come from the East as usual. Then the beast from the earth will come out.

Earth Beast

Near the Ka'aba, there is a mountain called Safaa. Near the Day of Judgement Safaa Mountain will explode. An Earth Beast will come out. When the Hajjis see this, some will be scared, and some won't be. The Earth Beast will be a very strange beast. It will talk to people and will traverse the whole earth with great speed. It will point out hypocrites and he will point out true Muslims.

Will have Hazrat Musa's (alayhi salaam) stick, and will have Hazrat Sulaiman's (alayhi salaam) ring. With Hazrat Musa's (as) stick will put a mark on the fore-heads of the believers. With that mark, the faces of believers will shine. On the necks or noses of the non-believers, it will put a black seal with the ring of Hazrat Sulaiman's (as) which will darken their faces. After completing this job the strange creature will disappear.

The South Wind (now its North)

Wind will come from the South, from which Muslims will have pain under their armpits and they will die. Only the non-believers will survive. Even if a Muslim is hiding in a cave, the wind will reach there, and they also will die. This will be close to the time when the Ka`bah will be broken down.

The Ka'bah will be broken down

When there will be no more Muslims, the Ethiopian (Abyssinians) non-believers will have victory. They will destroy the Ka'bah. Hajj will not be performed anymore. The words of the Holy Qur'an will be erased, only blank papers will be left. This will be the time when only bad people will be on earth. There will be none to fear or remember Allah (swt). At this time everything will be cheap in Syria and people from all sides will rush towards Syria. There will be great progress in the world. This will continue for three or four years.

Fire

After this, a fire will appear from South Yemen. When the people will see this, they will run and the fire will come after them. The fire will drive the people from all corners of the world to Syria. When everyone will reach Syria, the fire will disappear. The entire world will be in Syria. The people will live for four or five years after this. Then the trumpet will be blown and the world will come to an end.

First Blow of the Trumpet

Israfeel (alayhi salaam) is the name of one of Allah's Angel. He has a trumpet and he is standing on one leg and waiting for Allah's command, only then he will blow the trumpet. After the fire when every one will be in Syria they will stay there for four or five years. At that time there will be no one who believes in Allah (swt),

Then on one Friday which will be tenth of Muharram when people will be engaged in their business in the morning, suddenly the soor (trumpet) will be blown. When he blows the trumpet the first time. A person will be giving some water to his camel; he will faint as he hears the trumpet. First the sound will be low then it will become very high.

It will be so loud that every living thing will die; humans, animals, birds, sun, moon, stars, the sky, the devils, and Angels will all be destroyed. All of the mountains, rivers, trees and buildings will fall to pieces. They will fly in the air like sacks of cotton wool. The earth will be completely destroyed. There will be nothing left. Only ALLAH (swt).

Second Blow of the Trumpet

When there is no earth no sky no creation only Allah (swt) will remain and nothing else. Forty years will pass over the sounding of the Soor. Then Allah (swt) will make a new earth, and a new sky. This time the earth will be flat. And there will be no houses, no trees, no grass, no mountains etc.

Then Allah (swt) will recreate the Angel Israfeel (alayhi salaam) and command him to blow the trumpet for the second time. Israfeel (alayhi salaam) will blow the trumpet again. Then all the dead people will become alive and get up from their graves. They then will go towards the Mahshar. The Mahshar will be in the area that is now called Syria, Jordan and Palestine.

The people rising from the Graves

People will come out from their graves and will gather. The first person to get up from his grave will be Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam).

Then people will come out from their graves from (Jannat-ul-Baqee) a cemetery in Madina. Then Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) will wait for the people of (Jannat-ul-Ma'ala) a cemetery in Makkah. When the people of Jannat-ul-Ma'ala come out of their graves then Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) will take care of every body and they will start walking towards the Mahshar Ground.

When people come out from their graves they will all be naked. First Hazrat Ibrahim (alayhi salaam) will be given clothing from heaven, to wear, followed by Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) and rest of the Prophets. Everyone will not get clothing, only the good Muslims. The rest will remain naked. No one will be thinking other thoughts at the time but only thinking about what they have done wrong. Just thinking of their punishment will terrify them. Whatever the sin, the punishment will be in accordance with the sin. For example, people who had drank alcohol, would rise up with a bad headache and will be throwing up. People, who were greedy and took from those who cannot defend themselves, will breathe in fire and burn their insides over and over again. The people, who dealt in interest, will behave as though, jinn (Devil) possessed them.

From graveyards all over the world, people will rise from their graves and walk to the Mahshar until the Day of Judgment is over and their punishment is decided.

Journey to the Mahshar

When the good people come out of their graves, outside the graves will be a beautiful ride standing, which they will sit on and go to Mahshar. But when the non-believers get up from their graves, outside their graves will not be a ride. They will go to Mahshar in different ways. Some of them will crawl on their stomachs, like a snake.

Some non-believers will sweat so much when they come out of their graves, that there will be a river of sweat. They will walk in their sweat. For some non- believers, their river of sweat will be up to their knees. For some it will be up to their waist. For some non-believers it will be up to their mouths. When they walk in this hot river of sweat, it will be difficult for them to walk, and the Angels will hit them on their backs and say, "Hurry up." They will reach Mahshar exhausted. All of them will be thirsty. It will be very hot, but none of them will get any water. Only the Muslims will get water from the River Kawthar, which they will drink and it will quench their thirst.

River Kawthar

Kawthar is the name of a river in Heaven. This river's water is whiter than milk, sweeter than honey, and colder than ice. Its cups are made of gold. The Muslims will drink from these cups. They will shine like stars. On the Day of Judgement, a stream will flow from this river to the Mahshar. Muhammad (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) will be standing on this stream when the people will come out from their graves. Muhammad (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) will give this water to his followers to drink. The non-believers will not be given any water, and the bad Muslims will not get any water until they are forgiven. If someone drinks this water he will not feel thirsty.

Reckoning

When the people come out from their graves and gather in Mahshar, it will be a very hot day, because the sun will be very close to earth. The Mahshar will be in Shaam. A scale will be placed to weigh the people's good and bad deeds. On that Day, Allah (swt) will order the Angel to bring people, one by one for reckoning. The first person the Angel will call, will be Prophet Nooh (alayhi salaam).

Allah (swt) will ask Hazrat Nooh (alayhi salaam), "Did you deliver my message to the people?" He will say, "Yes, I did." Then Allah will ask Prophet Nooh's followers, "Did you get the message from Prophet Nooh?" They will say, "No." They will lie, and at the end they will be ordered to Hell. Then Hazrat Isa (alayhi salaam) (Jesus) will be called. Allah will ask him, "Did you tell the people to worship yourself and your mother?" He will say, "Oh Allah! You know that I said to everyone, to worship Allah alone." Allah will ask Hazrat Isa's (alayhi salaam) followers, "Why did you worship Jesus and his mother?" They will not answer and they will be ordered to Hell. Then the Angel will bring all the other people, one by one for reckoning.

The mouths will seal

When the people will come for reckoning, Allah (swt) will ask them if they have done so-and-so. They will start to lie. Then Allah (swt) will seal their mouths. Their hands will start to say, "Yes, he did so-and-so, thing with us." Their feet will say, "Yes, he did so-and-so, using us to walk with." The place where he did the wrong thing will say, "Yes, he did this wrong thing on me."

Three kinds of reckoning

There will be three kinds of reckoning on the Day of Judgement.

1) The people who do not believe in Allah (swt) and the Prophecy they will definitely go to Hell and remain there forever.
2) The Muslims who believe in Allah (swt) and the Prophecy, but they are careless in obeying Allah's orders. For example, they are not punctual in performing Salaat, do not fast, or do not read the Holy Qur`an and are careless in other orders and commands of Allah (swt). The matter of these people for going to Heaven or Hell will be Allah's decision. He may forgive them, or he may send them to Hell. They will get out from Hell either by the intercession of Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam), or by completing their sentence in Hell.
3) The third reckoning will be on those people who have done mischief on other people. For example killing someone, betraying trusts, swearing at someone, backbiting, fraud, stealing etc. Allah (swt) will not forgive the people who have committed these crimes until the victims, who they have committed the crime on, forgive them.

On the Day of Judgement, everyone will be on their own, mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, friends, will not come for the help of each other.

The Book of record

Everyone will be given a book of what they have done in their life. The people who have done good deeds, they will be rewarded. The people who have done bad deeds will be punished. There will be some righteous Muslims who will not be questioned and will go straight to Heaven.

The man who will have one good deed short

There will be a man, when his good and bad deeds will be weighed, he will have a good deed less for going to Heaven. The Angel will say to him, "Go and get a good deed from someone, then you can go to Heaven, otherwise you will go to Hell." This person will go to his mother and ask her for a good deed. His mother will say, "I don't even know you." Like this, he will go to all his family and they will all say that they don't know him and he will not get a good deed from them. He will go around Mahshar asking for a good deed. He will come across a man. He will ask him for a good deed. He will say, "In my life-time I have only done one good deed, the rest I have done are all bad deeds. I know I will not be going to Heaven with one good deed. You take it." The man will take the good deed and come back to the scale. He will say, "I have a good deed." The Angel will put the good deed on the scale and his good deeds will become more. The man will become happy. Allah will order the man to bring the man who sacrificed his good deed for the other man. When that man will come, Allah will say to him, "You had one good deed and you sacrificed it to another man. As a show of my Mercy, you will go to Heaven with him as well."

The people who do good deeds for their popularity

The Angel will bring one Haji for questioning. There will be an order, that to send him/her to Hell. The Haji will say, "I did Hajj, why is there an order for me to be sent to Hell?" Allah will say, "You never did Hajj for my pleasure, but you did it for your popularity." Then he/she will be sent to Hell.
Then a martyr will be brought forward for questioning. There will be an order for him/her to be sent to Hell. The martyr will say, "I sacrificed my life in Allah's way. Why am I being sent to Hell?" Allah will say, "You never sacrificed your life for my pleasure, but you sacrificed your life for your popularity." He/she will be sent to Hell.
A person who read the Holy Qur'an will be brought forward for questioning. There will also be an order for him/her to be sent to Hell. The reader will say, "I have recited the Qur'an for the whole of my life. Why am I being sent to Hell?" Allah will say, "You never recited the Qur'an for my pleasure, you did it for your popularity." He/she will also be sent to Hell.
A preacher will be brought forward for questioning. There will also an order for him/her to be sent to hell. The preacher will say, "I have been preaching Islam all of my life. Why am I being sent to Hell?" Allah will say, "You never preached Islam for my pleasure, but you preached Islam for your popularity." He/she will also be sent to Hell.
A charitable person will be brought forward for questioning. There will be an order for him/her to be sent to Hell. The alms giver will say, "I have been giving charity all my life. Why am I being sent to Hell?" Allah will say, "You never did it for my pleasure, but you did it for your popularity." He/she will also be sent to Hell.

Intercession

The Day of Judgement will be 50,000 years long. This will be a very hard day. The Muslims will say, "Let's go to a noble person so that he will ask Allah to forgive our sins."

Muslims will get together and go to Prophet Adam (alayhi salaam) so that he can intercede for them. Prophet Adam (alayhi salaam) will say, "Go to someone else." Then they will go to Prophet lbrahim (Abraham) (alayhi salaam) and he will say, "Go to someone else." Then they will go to Prophet Musa (Moses) (alayhi salaam) and he will say the same thing that the other Prophets (alayhi salaam) Said they will go to every Prophet but they will all give the same answer.

Then they will go to Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam). He will say, "I will intercede for you". Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) will go in to (sajdah) prostrate and say "Oh Allah! Accept my intercession." Allah will say, "Oh Muhammad! Raise your head from sajdah. I will give you that which you will be happy with." Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) will do intercession for his followers. Allah will grant them Heaven.

When Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) receives permission, to do intercession, other prophets will have permission also. The noble people will also get permission to do intercession. The Holy Qur`an, our fasting, and Al-Hajr-ul-Aswad (The stone in the Kabah) will intercede. All of it will be accepted. A Muslim will see a noble person. He will say, "Do you know me? "The noble person will say "No." The Muslim will say, "I am that person, that one day, in the world you asked me for water and I gave it to you". Then the noble person will say, "Oh Allah! He gave me water so I will intercede for him." Allah (swt) will accept that intercession and the Muslim will go to Heaven.

There will be many Muslims that will be sent to Hell, but the Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) will intercede for them so they will be taken out of Hell. They will have a bath in a stream of Ha'yaah and enter Heaven, but this intercession will be only accepted for Muslims not for non-believers.

Bridge (Pul Sirat)

There will be a Bridge, which will be over Hell. This will be thinner than a strand of hair and sharper than a sword. There will be darkness everywhere. Heaven will be on the other side of the bridge. Everyone will have to walk over this bridge. There will be no light there except the light of faith. On both sides, there will be flames of fire and hooks. On the other side of the bridge, there will be Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam), who will be standing and praying for his followers: "Oh Allah! Save my followers." The feet of the people, who are bad, will be cut when they walk across and they will fall into Hell. The hooks will catch people and throw them into Hell. Some will pass the bridge like the speed of lightening and will go straight to Heaven.

Kindness of Prophet Muhammad

One of the companions of prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) asked: "On the Day of Judgement, where shall we find you?" Muhammad (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) replied: "I will meet you at three places on the day of Judgement: The Scale, the River Kawthar, and the Bridge."
