The end of the world

Why do we speak of the Signs of the HOUR?

1 Faith in the Unseen, which is among the six pillars of belief. God the Almighty says: "Who believe in the invisible and fulfill the Salat" [2,3]. Abu Hurayra relates that the Messenger of Allah (PSL) said: "I was ordered to fight the people until they say the Chahada of Allah One and Muhammad Messenger of Allah, that they accomplish the prayer and give alms. If they behave like this, their blood and property will be protected by me except for their due payment of their property, while their judgment will be entrusted to Allah. [Reported by Al-Bokhari and Moslim]. Faith in the Unseen means faith in all that is revealed from Allah and what is informed (from Allah) to His Messenger (pbuh). Among others (the signs of the hour) [the Days of Judgment last]: the exit of Ad-Dajjal (the false Messi), and the arrival of Jesus son of Mary the exit of ya-juj and Ma-juj (Gog and Magog), the exit of the mount, the lifting of the western sun (Maghreib)...

2 Knowing the signs of the Hour also means obedience to Allah Most High and being ready for the Day of Resurrection [disavowal, repentance]. What the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) did when he felt the proximity of a sign of the Hour. In the two authentic ones, the Prophet (PBUH) said: woke up once from his sleep saying "There is no divinity apart from God. Woe to the Arabs of a danger that has now become close. Today, we have just practiced in the rampart enclosing the Gog and Magog, an opening of this size...»

3 The Hour Signs contain Shari'ah provisions and fiqh issues. In Ad-Dajjal's story on earth, a day is like a year and a day is like a month.
