The New Muslim's Guide - (34) Minor and Major Signs of the Hour دليل المسلم الجديد - (34) علامات الساعة الصغرى والكبرى

Approaching the hour Sheikh Muhammad Salih Al-Munajjid was asked about the approaching hour and he replied: “Praise be to God. God Almighty said: {People draw near to their reckoning while they are in heedlessness.} [Al-Anbiya:1] Ibn Kathir said in the interpretation [3/172] of this: Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, is approaching the Hour and approaching it, and that people are heedless of it, meaning: they neither work for it nor prepare for it.” And the Almighty said: {God’s command has come, so do not rush it. 2/560]: “The Most High informs about the approaching and approaching of the Hour, expressing the past tense indicating the fulfillment and the inevitably occurrence.” And the Most High said: {The Hour has drawn near and the moon has split} [Al-Qamar:1]. Ibn Kathir also said in the interpretation [4/360]: “The Most High informs of the approaching hour and the emptiness of the world and its end.” And the Almighty said: {God is the One who sent down the Book with Truth and Balance ۗ. And what will make you know, perhaps the Hour is near, is near God’s Messenger: 17:19} [In the Sahih of God’s Messenger: 17:19]. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: “How can he be blessed when the owner of the horn has plucked the horn and listened to the permission when he is commanded to blow?” Is he blowing?!” It was as if that weighed heavily on the companions of the Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, and he said to them: Say, “God is sufficient for us, and He is the best trustee. In God we trust.” Ahmad and muslim narrated on the authority of Ibn Masoud, who said: The Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said: “The Hour will not come except on the worst of people” (Narrated by Muslim, number [5243] and Ahmad, number [3548]). Ahmad and Al-Bukhari narrated on the authority of Mirdas Al-Aslami, he said: The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: “The first righteous depart, then the first, and a sack remains, like a sack of barley or dates. Ahmad, the two Sheikhs, and Al-Tirmidhi narrated on the authority of Anas, he said: I will tell you a hadith that no one will tell you after me. I heard the Messenger of God, peace and blessings of God be upon him, say: “Among the portents of the Hour is that there will be less knowledge and ignorance will appear, fornication will appear, women will multiply, and men will be few, until fifty women have the same values.” (Bukhari and Muslim) with number [79] and the wording is his, Muslim with number [4825], Ahmad with number [12735] and al-Tirmidhi with number [2131]). Al-Tabarani narrated on the authority of Sahel bin Saad, who said: The Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him, said: “There will be eclipse, slander and deformation at the end of time, if musical instruments and guitars appear and alcohol becomes lawful” (Sahih al-Jami’ [3665]). All of these texts, with their explicit utterances, indicate that the Hour is near and that many sins and disobedience are among its signs, and the infidels rule out the emergence of the Hour and delay its coming, but the matter is as God Almighty said: {Indeed, they see it as far away. And we will see him soon}, we ask God for deliverance, safety and well-being in this world and the hereafter, and praise be to God, Lord of the Worlds.” End. minor signs of the Hour Praise be to God. Some scholars divide the signs of the Hours into major and minor, and others divide them into three categories, and make between them a “middle,” and they represent it with an exit. The Mahdi.” And the minor signs of the Hour can be divided into three categories: some of them have passed, some that are still recurring, and some that have not yet happened. All of these sections were limited to their hadiths: Sheikh Omar Suleiman Al-Ashqar, may God preserve him, in his valuable book “The Minor Resurrection”, and we will try to summarize the places outside the question, and simplify the saying in the topic of the question. : A part that has occurred, and a part that has not yet occurred, and what has occurred may be past and gone, and its appearance may not be once, rather it appears little by little, and its occurrence and occurrence may be repeated, and it may occur more of it in the future than it occurred in the past. First: Minor Marks that occurred and expired. Second: Minor signs that occurred, are still ongoing, and may occur again. Third: Minor signs that have not yet occurred. Fourth: the major signs. a. Signs of the Hour that occurred: by which we mean the signs that occurred and passed, and their occurrence will not be repeated, and they are many, and we will mention some of them: 1. The mission of the Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace, and his death. 2. The splitting of the moon. 3. The Hijaz fire that lit up the necks of camels in Bosra - a town in the Levant -. 4. The jizyah and levy are suspended. B. Signs that have occurred, and are ongoing, or occurred once and may occur again: 1. Conquests and wars. Persia and the Romans were conquered, and the king of Khosrau and Caesar disappeared, and the Muslims invaded India, and they conquered Constantinople. In the future, the Muslims will have a great king in which Islam will spread and polytheism will be humiliated. To talk to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him). Narrated by Ahmad [28/154] and authenticated by the Musnad investigators). 2. The fight of the Turks and the Tatars. 3. Assigning the matter to someone else. 4. Corruption of Muslims. 5. The birth of the nation is its godfather, and the barefooted and the naked shepherds trek in the building. 6. The fall of nations to the Islamic nation. 7. Erosion, slander and deformation with which God punishes people from this nation. 8. Excess money. 9. Private delivery, trade defamation, and kinship severing. 10. Imbalance of standards: The Messenger, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, told us that the standards by which men are measured are distorted before the Hour of Judgment comes, so he accepts telling a lie and believes it, responds to the truthful his news, trusts traitors with money and honor, betrays trustees and accuses, and petty men speak on issues that concern The common people, they only present crude opinions, and they only guide to crooked matters. Imam Ahmad, Ibn Majah, and Al-Hakim narrated on the authority of Abu Huraira, who said: The Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him, said: “Years of deceit will come to people that will be believed. In it the liar, and the truthful are denied, and the treacherous is entrusted, and the trustworthy are betrayed in them, and the erroneous utters in it? He said: “A frivolous man speaks about the affairs of the common people.” (Narrated by Ibn Majah [4036] and authenticated by al-Albani in “Sahih Ibn Majah”). 11. End-time police who flog people. c. The signs that did not occur after: 1. The return of the island of Arabs Gardens and stews: About Abi Hurayrah may Allah be pleased with him he said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: The land of the Arabs will return to meadows and rivers.” (Narrated by Muslim [157]). Its return is gardens and rivers, either because of what its people do of digging wells, cultivating the land and other things that happen in our time, or because of climate change, so that its hot climate turns into a nice and beautiful atmosphere, and its creator explodes in it rivers and springs that turn its barren plains fertile, and turns its barren plains To the green plains of Fayhaa, and this is the most apparent, as it tells of a case in which the island returned to what it was before. 2. Swelling of the crescents: One of the evidences of the approaching hour is that the crescent will be seen when its appearance appears so large that the hour of its emergence is said to be for two or three nights, for Ibn Masoud, may God be pleased with him, said: The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: Al-Tabarani narrated it in “Al-Kabeer” [10/198], and Al-Albani graded it authentic in “Sahih Al-Jami’” [5898]). On the authority of Anas, may God be pleased with him, he said: The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: “If the Hour is approaching, the new moon is seen before, and it is said: For the two nights, and that you take the crowns.” [5899]). 3. The Speaking of the Seasons and the Medicine of Human: Narrated by Imam Ahmed in his assignee from Abi Said Al-Thabri. For his sin, spoke to the words of the man, and the wolf said. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said, The wild beasts of mankind, and a man will speak to the sweetness of his whip and the trap of his sandal, and his thigh will tell him what has happened.” [Ahmed, authenticated by it, 15] (correct it). 4. The Euphrates receding from a mountain of gold: Al-Bukhari and Muslim narrated in their two Sahihs on the authority of Abu Hurairah, may God be pleased with him, who said: The Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said: “The Euphrates is about to be hidden from a treasure of gold.” And in a narration, they fell from it. «He will be missed by a mountain of gold». In a novel in a Muslim: "Do not even feel the hurries about a mountain of gold, killing people, killing every one hundred nine and ninety-one, and every man says to me. And a Muslim narrated on Abi Ben Helab. And the meaning of its decline: its exposure to the disappearance of its water, as Al-Nawawi says, and this may be due to the change of its course, because this treasure or this mountain is embedded in the dirt and it is unknown, so if the course of the river changes for some reason and passes close to this mountain, it is revealed, and God knows what is right. The reason why the Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace, forbade those who attended him from taking from him because of the sedition, fighting and bloodshed that arises from taking him. 4 And the thief will come and say, “In this case my hand has been cut off.” Then they would leave him and would not take anything from him. And this is one of the signs of God, where the truth commands the earth to bring out its treasures hidden in its hollow. The hadith: the analogy, that is: it brings out what is in its belly from the pieces buried in it, and the cylinder is a combination of a cylinder, which is the mast and the column, and it is similar to the cylinder due to its greatness and abundance.” 6. The siege of Muslims to Medina: One of the portents of the Hour is that the Muslims will be defeated, their shadow will recede, and their enemies will surround them and besiege them in Medina.On the authority of Ibn Umar, may God be pleased with him, he said: The Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said: “The Muslims are about to be besieged to Medina until it is the farthest from their paths.” Abu Dawud, authenticated by Abu Dawud, [Sahih Abi Dawud] (Sahih 4250). And Al-Masaleh is an armed plural, which is the gap, and what is meant is the furthest from the enemy. And weapons, a place near Khaybar. 7. Achieving the “Jehjah” the king: the Jahjah is a man from Qahtan who will become the king, and he is very strong and violent. In the two Sahihs on the authority of Abu Hurairah, on the authority of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him: “The hour will not come until a man from Qahtan comes out from Qahtan” al-Bukhari (Bukhari) [3329] and Muslim [2910]). And in a narration by Muslim [2911]: “Days and nights do not go away until a man who is called Al-Jajah reigns.” It is possible that this one in the last narration is not the first. It was authenticated in Sunan al-Tirmidhi on the authority of Abu Hurayrah that this Jahjah is from the loyal, in Sunan al-Tirmidhi [2228] on the authority of Abu Hurairah on the authority of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace: “Night and day pass not until a man reigns over you.” From a loyalist, it is called Jahjah. What is meant by the fact that he drives people with his stick is that he overcomes the people, so they obey him and obey him, and the expression in the market with a stick denotes his harshness and intensity, and the origin of the shouting, and it is an adjective that fits the stick as Ibn Hajar says, and does this man drive people to good or evil? We do not have a statement from the Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace. 8. Fasting of the poems and the daughter of Dahima: Dr. Abdullah bin Omar said: We were when the Messenger of Allah peace be upon him. He said. The nation is only for him to hit him. If he was said to be cut off. 309] The wording is his, and Al-Albani graded it authentic in “Sahih Abi Dawood”). Al-Ahlas: the plural of Hellas, which is the garment that follows the camel’s back under the saddle, and was likened to sedition because it accompanies people when it descends upon them, just as the Hellas accompanies the camel’s back. And war with the opening of the ra: the loss of money and family, it is said: the war of a man is a war for so-and-so if he robs him of his money and his family. Weal is the blessing that makes people happy from the abundance of money and wellness, and sedition is added to it because the blessing is its cause, as a person commits sins and disobedience because of what is available to him of good. And his saying: “Your rib is on a rib,” this is an example of a matter that is neither straight nor fixed, because the hip does not mount on the rib and does not straighten with it. And Al-Dhaima: The shrewdness that raids people with its decency. 9. The Mahdi’s Exodus: It is proven in the authentic hadiths that God, Blessed and Exalted be He, will send at the end of time a caliph who will be a just ruler. The ruler of this nation is from the family of the Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace, from the lineage of Fatimah. His name corresponds to the name of the Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace, and his father’s name is the name of The father of the Messenger, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, and the hadiths described him as having the clearest forehead, the most hollow of the nose, filling the earth with justice, after it had been filled with injustice and oppression. He, peace be upon him: (The world will not go away until the Arabs rule a man from my family whose name is equal to mine) (Narrated by Al-Tirmidhi) [82] and narrated by Abu Dawud [82] He said. ("The Minor Resurrection" [137-206] in short, and a refinement). And with it it becomes clear that there are nine signs of the Minor Hour that have not yet appeared, and it becomes clear that what is repeated by many people that the Minor Signs of the Hour have all appeared, and only the “Mahdi” remains a false statement. The major signs of the Hour of Resurrection: They are the ones mentioned by the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, in the hadith of Hudhayfa bin Usayd, and they are ten signs: the Antichrist, the descent of Jesus bin Mary, Gog and Magog, and three eclipses: an eclipse in the east, an eclipse in the west, an eclipse in the Arabian Peninsula, and the smoke. The rising of the sun from the west, the beast, and the fire that drives people to their place of assembly, and these signs will appear consecutively, so if the first of these signs appears, the other will follow. Muslim narrated on the authority of Hudhayfah bin Aseed Al-Ghafari, may God be pleased with him, who said: The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, looked at us, and he said: They said: "We will not even see it ten verses," he said. And the last of that is a fire that comes out from Yemen, expelling people to their gathering places. There is no explicit authentic text regarding the arrangement of these signs, but the arrangement of some of them is derived from a set of texts. Sheikh Muhammad Al-Salih Al-Uthaymeen, may God have mercy on him, was asked: Do the major signs of the Hour come in order? He replied: “The major signs of the Hour are some of them arranged and known, and some of them are not arranged and their order is not known. Among the things that came in order are the descent of Jesus bin Mary and the emergence of Gog and Magog, and the Antichrist, for the Antichrist will be resurrected, then Jesus bin Mary will descend and kill him, then Gog and Magog will emerge. These are the signs, but some of this arrangement is reassuring to the soul, and some of it is not, and the arrangement does not concern us, rather what concerns us is that the Hour will have great signs, if it falls, then the Hour will be near, and God has made signs for the Hour, because it is an important event that people need to be alerted to of the imminence of its occurrence. . ("Majmoo' al-Fatwa" [2/137]). God only knows.
