For religious people, the Last Day or apocalypse is inevitable and will definitely happen. For Muslims, believing in the occurrence of the Day of Judgment is also one of the pillars of faith.
However, no one knows when the apocalypse will occur. However, clues regarding the signs of the apocalypse have been explained a lot, both in the Qur’an and the hadith.
One of them was narrated by Imam Muslim in his sahih and several other narrators of the hadith, which means:
“From Hudzaifah bin Asid Al Ghifari said, the Messenger of Allah SAW approached us while we were discussing something. He asked, ‘What are you talking about?’ We said, ‘We are talking about the Hour.’ He said, ‘The Hour will not come until you see ten signs before it.’ The Messenger of Allah mentioned the fog, the Dajjal, the beast (ad-dābbah), the rising of the sun from the west, the descent of Jesus, son of Mary, Ya’juj and Ma’juj, three eclipses; an eclipse in the east, an eclipse in the west and an eclipse in the Arabian Peninsula and the last is a fire appearing from Yemen driving people towards their place of gathering,” (See Abul Husayn Muslim bin Hajjaj bin Muslim An-Naisaburi, Al-Jāmi’us Ṣaḥīḥ, [Beirut, Dārul Afaq Al-Jadidah: no year], volume VIII, page 178).
In other indications, it is also mentioned that the Hour will occur on Friday. The following is a hadith that mentions that the apocalypse or the last day will occur on Friday.
Hadith that calls the end of the world on Friday
Quoting Republika, this explanation is contained in the hadith of the Prophet Muhammad SAW from Abu Hurairah R, Rasulullah SAW said:
خَيْرُ يَوْمٍ طَلَعَتْ عَلَيْهِ الشَّمْسُ يَوْمُ الْجُمُعَةِ، فِيْهِ خُلِقَ آدَمُ وَفِيْهِ أُدْخِلَ
“The best day on which the sun rises is Friday. On it Adam was created, on it he was admitted to Paradise, and on it he was expelled from Paradise. The Hour will not be established except on Friday.” (HR Muslim No. 854).
There is also a hadith from Aus bin ‘Aus, Rasulullah SAW said:
God willing, God willing, God willing, God willing. may Allah bless him and give him peace الصَّعْقَةُ
“Indeed, the most important of your days is Friday. On that day, Adam was created; on that day, Adam died; on that day, the first trumpet blast was given; On the same day, the second blow was made.” (HR Abu Daud).
Wisdom of the Signs of the Apocalypse
The existence of signs or information about the apocalypse is actually to remind humans not to forget the purpose of their creation, namely worshiping Allah.
The group of people who fear Allah will be given heaven and the opposite group will be given hell on the last day.
وَتُنذِرَ يَوْمَ ٱلْجَمْعِ لَا رَيْبَ فِيهِ ۚ فَرِيقٌ فِى ٱلْجَنَّةِ وَفَرِيقٌ فِى ٱلسَّعِيرِ
“And give warning (also) about the day of gathering (doomsday) about which there is no doubt. Some will enter heaven, and some will enter Jahannam.” (QS. Ash-Shura: 7).
