There are a lot of verses in the Quran specifically mentions the word Yaomul Qiyaamah. Like In Quran 40:44:
“Indeed the Day of Judgement is the appointed time for them all.
And even when the word I doesn’t appear, you can quickly decipher it like in Quran 50 vs 30 where Allah Says:
“On the day, we shall say to Hell, have you been filled? And it will say: “Are there some more?"
The Bible isn’t silent on this either. Matthew 12:36 says:
“I tell you, on the Day of Judgment people will give account for every careless word they speak,
This tells us that no doubt whatsoever should you have regarding the day of judgement.
Now the big question or let me say the first intellectual poser is: “when is the day of judgment?
The time of this great event is not specified, nobody knows. From the Quran and the hadith, it is clear that the exact timings of the Day of Judgement is an absolute Divine secret. No one except Allah (swt) knows the time of Qiyamat.
"They question you (Muhammad) about the Hour: When shall it be? (Say) you have no knowledge to say anything about it. Allah alone knows when it will come. You are but a Warner for those who fear". (79:42-44)
Quran clearly tells us why the time of the Qiyamat is held in secret.
"Indeed, The Hour is sure to come. But I choose to keep it hidden, so that every soul may be rewarded for its efforts". (Naaziat 22:15)
Matthew 24:36
“But concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only."
Although there are major and minor signs which have been foretold to happen .
Summarily, the Minor signs: Removal of khushoo' (fearfulness of God, taqwah, reverence, etc.) Everyone presuming himself that he is an apostle of Allah. Loss of honesty, and authority is given to those who do not deserve it. The taking away of knowledge and the prevalence of religious ignorance. Rejection of Sunnah (Hadith). the spread of zina (adultery, fornication), drinking of alcohol. The widespread and condoning of music. The decoration of mosques as a matter of pride and competition. Women will increase in number and men will decrease in number so much so that fifty women will be looked after by one man. Qur'an and Islamic knowledge will be passed on, but no one will follow it correctly. A man obeys his wife and disobeys his mother; and treats his friend kindly whilst shunning his father. Voices are raised in the mosques.
MAJOR SIGNS
The Prophet (sallAllaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) said: "Verily the Hour will never be established until you see ten signs before it." Then he (sallAllaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) mentioned: “
The smoke, The Emergence of the Dajjaal, The Beast: the Beast that will come out of the ground to talk to people.
“We shall bring out from the earth, a Beast for them, to speak to them because mankind believed not with certainty in Our signs.” [Surat-un-Naml (27): 82]
The rising of the sun from the west,
“The Day that some of the signs of your Lord will come, no good will it do for a person to believe then, if he believed not before nor earned good (by doing good deeds), through his Faith.” [Surat-ul-Ana’aam (6): 158]
The descent of 'Eesaa Ibn Maryam, “I swear by Allaah, ‘Eesaa Ibn Maryam will indeed descend judging (mankind) with justice.” This hadeeth is agreed upon.
Ya'jooj and Ma'jooj,
Three tremors (in which the earth will open and swallow those upon it) – one in the east, one in the west and one in the Arabian peninsula.
And the last of them will be a fire that will come out from Yemen, which will drive the people to the (final) place of assembly."
[Saheeh Muslim: Book of Tribulations (no. 2901) from the hadeeth of Hudhaifah Ibn Usaid Al-Ghifaaree (radyAllaahu 'anhu).]
Nearing the end of time, the trumpet will be blown and creation will cease to exist. God, Almighty, says:
“And the Trumpet will be blown, and all who are in the heavens and all who are on the earth will swoon away, except him whom God wills.” (Quran 39:68)
It will be blown a second blowing, and all creation from the beginning of time till the end of time will be resurrected. God, the Exalted, tells us:
‘And the trumpet will be blown, everyone will hasten from their graves to their lord" (36 vs 51)
“When the earth is shaken with its final earthquake. And the earth discharges all its content… that day, the people will emerge separately from their graves to be shown their deeds.
And by the time people get to the place of assembly, what happens.?
People will stand naked,... Continue Reading
