The End Times Will Be on a Friday

Do you know that the End Times will take place on a Friday? Yes, don’t be surprised. Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) himself said this in an authentic hadith:

The best day on which the sun has risen is Friday; on it Adam was created. And on it he was made to enter Paradise, on it he was expelled from it. And the last hour will take place on no day other than Friday. (Muslim)

We know as Muslims that Friday is a special day, but in this hadith Prophet Muhammad mentions more events that make this day very special. What attracts me in this hadith is that Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) clearly says that the Doomsday will be on a Friday. Which Friday? We can’t know. Allah knows Best.

No doubt, death is the reality that no one can escape, we can’t guess when we will die. But, once a person dies, their Last Day begins. Like death, we can never know exactly when the End Times will take place, it’s all in the unseen knowledge. But Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) gave us some signs that indicate its approaching.

Is the End Times Nearing?

This life will come to an end and another life is prepared for us. The Quran is constantly reminding us of the Day of Judgment; and Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) gave reference in many hadiths about the minor and major signs of the End Times.

Let’s examine some hadiths here:

The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said:

The Hour (Last Day) will not be established until knowledge will be taken away, earthquakes will be very frequent, time will pass quickly, afflictions will appear, murders will increase and money will overflow amongst you. (Al-Bukhari)

And he said:

The hour shall not be established until time is constricted, and the year is like a month, a month is like the week, and the week is like the day, and the day is like the hour, and the hour is like the flare of the fire. (At-Tirmidhi)

This is so true. These days we witness corruption, wars are waged, deadly virus around us, and killing on the rise, earthquakes frequently happen these days, time is so restricted…

Don’t you feel that time “flies” and passing surprisingly quickly? Don’t you feel last year’s Ramadan was a month or two months ago? And the week is like a day, and a day is like an hour?

We are travelers in this life, and one day we will reach our eternal destination. But this time the journey is a one-way ticket and we don’t know when the boarding will take place.

List of Times and Places Where Dua is Accepted

A short reminder regarding the recommended times of dua . And I think what you need to know here is that the recommended times of dua or recommended things that can cause your dua to be accepted, can be divided into two sort of large groups: Am I Good Enough to Make Dua for Myself? Situations where your dua is accepted. Times where your dua is accepted So I’m going to very briefly mention them one after the other as much as possible. As for situations where your dua has been accepted: – The person who has been wronged or oppressed . – A person who finds themselves in severe difficulty after a calamity has struck. – The person who is traveling. – Someone who is fasting. – The one who is reciting the Quran or has just recited the Quran – Someone who is performing Hajj or Umrah or jihad. – The one who is making dua for someone in their absence . Because we know that when you make dua for someone in his absence an angel says: “ Ameen and to you”. – A person...

Derechos de Las Mujeres en Islam

Durante el Tiempo del Profeta (la paz sea con él) Veamos cómo fueron tratadas las mujeres de todo el mundo durante la época del Profeta (la paz sea con él). En la Europa del siglo VIII, la religión principal era el catolicismo y durante este tiempo debatían si las mujeres tenían alma. Dijeron que las mujeres eran impuras y que no tenían derecho a la herencia. A las mujeres tampoco se les permitía tocar la Biblia. No era como ahora en el Islam, donde ellas no pueden tocar el Corán durante la menstruación, pero a las mujeres en la Europa del siglo VIII nunca se les permitió tocar la Biblia. En China e India, fueron quemadas vivas cuando murieron sus maridos. En Arabia Saudita practicaron infanticidio femenino en el que, si nacía una niña, la enterrarían viva. Si el marido de una mujer muere, un miembro de su familia se unirá a ella para demostrar que ahora es de su propiedad. Mujeres en el Islam Con el Islam llegó una nueva era para las mujeres. En el Islam, las mujeres tienen la...

Ghuraba (The Strangers): Nasheed with English Subtitles

Islam began as something strange, and it shall return to being something strange, so give glad tidings the strangers. (Sahih Muslim 145) This famous nasheed has many versions; this one is from Muhammad al-Salman and has the subtitles in English embedded. [We are] strangers and we do not bow the foreheads to anyone besides Allah  […] Transliteration to help in the pronounciation:  Ghurabaa’ wa li ghairillaahi laa nahnil jibaa Aisha Stacey  wrote in an article for Aboutislam.net : “I think that many of you would agree that being Muslim in the 21st century makes you well acquainted with being strange. It might even be a metaphor for random, as in you have been randomly selected. […] many converts to Islam will tell you about feeling as if they were strangers, before finding Islam. They will speak of feeling that they belonged somewhere else that their lives were just slightly off center. They often speak about a vague sense of knowing they were not like everyone else...
