THE SIGNS BEFORE THE DAY OF JUDGMENT

From the Book: Then Ibn Mas’ood recited,

“Then wait you for the Da when the sky will bring forth a visible smoke. Covering the people, this is a painful torment. (They will say): “Our Lord! Remove the torment from us, really we shall become believers!” How can there be for them an admonition (at the time when the torment has reached them), when a Messenger explaining things clearly has already come to them. Then they had turned away from him (Messenger Muhammad sal-Allaahu ‘alayhe wa sallam) and said: “One (Muhammad sal-Allaahu ‘alayhe wa sallam) taught (by a human being), a madman!” Verily, We shall remove the torment for a while.

This speaker’s suggestion – that the idea that the smoke would be on the Day or Resurrection was not a good one – made Ibn Masood react angrily. But the smoke will appear before the Day of Resurrection; it will be one of the signs, which are: the Beast, the Dajjaal, the Smoke, and Gog and Magog, as the Ahaadeeth narrated from Abu Sareehah, Abu Hurairah and other Sahaabah indicate.

As mentioned in the Saheeh Ahaadeeth, the fire which will appear before the Day of Resurrection will burst forth from the direction of Aden, and

drive the people to the place of their final assembly. It will move with
