THE SMOKE AND RISING OF THE SUN FROM THE WEST
A Smoke will appear all over the earth lasting for 40 days, which will
cause the believers to catch something similar to a slight cold, whereas
the unbelievers will be hit harder by it and fall unconscious. Then
there will be a night that is unusually long, and it will cause much rest-
lessness among the people. Travelers will become frustrated, while
children and adults will be overtaken by extreme anxiety, and they
will resort to repentance. Even the animals will become restless. After
a length of three nights, this night will finally come to an end. The
following morning, the Sun will rise from west, with its rays being
extremely dull, and then set in the east. When the people see it, they
will all believe in God, but it will do them no good to believe now if they
did not believe before. God will not accept repentance anymore.
It is reported in the sayings of the Prophet that the two events — the
appearance of the smoke and the rising of the sun from the east —
will happen in short consecutive sequence. It is easy to speculate that
the smoke may occur because of a large meteor hitting the earth.
According to scientists, a meteor impact 65 million years ago caused
dust to envelop the whole planet and the sun to be blocked for a period
of time long enough to cause a severe drop in temperature and crops
to fail; this led to the extinction of dinosaurs all over the world. Sim-
ilarly, a meteor strike in the future may cause the whole world to be
enveloped by dust/smoke again and may also disturb the rotation of
the earth and cause it to reverse its direction of spin. If this happened,
then the sun would appear to rise from the west.
