Ilamat e Qiyamat Ka Bayan

Overview:

"Alamat-e-Qiyamat Ka Bayan" is a well-researched and authentic Urdu book authored by Maulana Muhammad Iqbal Kilani, focusing on the Signs of the Day of Judgment. Divided into three main categories, minor signs, specific signs, and major signs, the book highlights each set of signs through Qur’anic verses and authentic Hadiths. The core aim of the book is to explain the approaching signs of Qiyamah and motivate Muslims to prepare for the Hereafter. Maulana Kilani has explained this complex subject in a simple and scholarly manner, making it accessible to both general readers and scholars.

Among the minor signs, the book discusses social and moral decline, such as disobedience to parents, breach of trust, false testimonies, severing of family ties, selfishness, abundance of wealth, music, immodesty, bloodshed, and consumption of unlawful earnings, all backed by Hadith references.

The specific signs include events like the splitting of the moon, spread of religious knowledge, deaths of scholars, increase in the number of women, greenery and rivers in Arabia, earthquakes, and transformations (khasf, maskh, and qazf).

In the section on major signs, the author covers monumental events including World War, the arrival of Imam Mahdi, the emergence of Dajjal, the descent of Prophet Isa (A.S.), the release of Gog and Magog (Yajuj Majuj), three major landslides, the sun rising from the west, and the emergence of Dabbat al-Ard, all supported by authentic narrations from Sahih Bukhari and Sahih Muslim.
