Islam End of World Beliefs

Though the Qu’ran does not give specifics there are
many signs given to show the end times are
approaching.

Muslims believe when the day of judgement is near
people will fall away from Allah and society will
break down, Christianity will begin to rule. Many
believe that Armageddon will begin in the Middle East
and thus the events of the past 5 years have caused
many to say it is near. Such minor signs include:

- When it will be regarded as a shame to act on
Quranic injunctions.

- When untrustworthy people will be regarded as
trustworthy and the trustworthy will be regarded as
untrustworthy.

- When it will be hot in winter (and vice versa).

- When the length of days is stretched, i.e. a journey
of a few days is covered in a matter of hours.

- When orators and lecturers lie openly.

- When people dispute over petty issues.

- When women with children come displeased on account
of them bearing offspring, and barren women remain
happy on account of having no responsibility of
offspring.

- When oppression, jealousy, and greed become the
order of the day.

- When people blatantly follow their passions and
whims.

- When lies prevail over the truth.

- When violence, bloodshed and anarchy become common.

- When immorality overtakes shamelessness and is
perpetrated publicly.

- When children are a cause of grief and anger for
their parents.

The Major signs will occur near the end of time, then
a great leader Imam Mehdi will come and Jesus will
appear and urge his follower to become Muslims.

The Dajjal will come and lead a great army against
Muslims but Muslims will triumph. In the end a trumpet
will be blown and only Muslims will survive.
