Major signs[edit]

Following the second period, the third will be marked by the ten major signs known as alamatu's-sa'ah al-kubra (the major signs of the end).[note 57] They are as follows without any exact order:

A huge black cloud of smoke (dukhan) will cover the earth.[note 58]

Three sinkings of the earth, one in the east.[note 59]

One sinking of the earth in the west.[note 60]

One sinking of the earth in Arabia.[note 61]

The coming of Dajjal, presuming himself as an apostle of God.[note 62][jargon] The false messiah—anti-Christ, Masih ad-Dajjal—shall appear with great powers as a one-eyed man with his right eye blind and deformed like a grape. Although believers will not be deceived, he will claim to be God, to hold the keys to heaven and hell, and will lead many astray.[32] In reality, his heaven is hell, and his hell is heaven. The Dajjal will be followed by seventy thousand Jews of Isfahan wearing Persian shawls.[note 63]

The return of Isa (Jesus), from the fourth sky, to kill Dajjal.[33]

Ya'jooj and Ma'jooj (Gog and Magog), a Japhetic tribe of vicious beings who had been imprisoned by Dhul-Qarnayn, will break out. They will ravage the earth, drink all the water of Lake Tiberias, and kill all believers in their way. Isa, Imam Al-Mahdi, and the believers with them will go to the top of a mountain and pray for the destruction of Gog and Magog. God eventually will send disease and worms to wipe them out.[note 64][34]

The sun will rise from the west.[35][36]

The Dabbat al-Ard, or Beast of the Earth, will come out of the ground to talk to people.[note 65]

The first blow of the trumpet will sound and everything will fall dead

The second blow of the trumpet will be sounded, the dead will return to life, and a fire will come out of Yemen that shall gather all to Mahshar Al Qiy'amah (The Gathering for Judgment).[23]
