Signs of Jesus’ (pbuh)
Second Coming

Briefly, the following events will take place before the End Times
and the Mahdi’s appearance:
1- Death: As a consequence of anarchy and mass murder, people
will not be safe and will be greatly concerned about dying.
2- Hunger: The struggle to make a living will increase, because the
cost of living will rise. Natural disasters and catastrophes will lead to

starvation and hunger.
3- Fitna: Such troubles will spread and encourage unlawful and im-
moral acts among all people, both in public and in private.
4- Innovation (bid`at): Adoption of some rituals or innovations on
the grounds that they are essential components of Islam, although they
violate the teachings of the Qur'an and the Sunnah.
5- Disappearance of an environment that allows the communica-
tion of God's message: Believers will be hindered from enjoining the

good and forbidding the evil, and a spiritual decline will occur as a re-
sult.
