Signs of Jesus’ (pbuh)
Second Coming
Jesus' (pbuh) second coming, are mentioned in many respected books
of hadith.
Let's examine some important statements revealed in the hadiths
one by one:
God's Messenger said: "The Hour will not come to pass before
the river Euphrates dries up and unveils the mountain of gold."
(Sahih Muslim)
… the river Euphrates dries up …
As-Suyuti mentions this hadith as "the stopping of water." The
Keban dam, built in 1975, has accomplished this.
… unveils the mountain of gold…
The surrounding land has become as valuable as gold for various
reasons, for the Keban dam has enabled electricity production and
higher soil fertility through irrigation and transport facilities.
The Keban and other dams lining the Euphrates resemble a con-
crete mountain, and wealth as valuable as gold comes out of it.
Therefore, these dams take on the properties of "the golden moun-
tain." (God knows best.)
