In Islam, the day of judgement (or Arabic: یوم الدین, romanized: Yawm ad-din, lit. 'Day of Judgement') is the time when all human beings are raised from the dead to be judged by Allah as to whether they shall spend eternity in Jannah (Paradise) or in Jahannam (Hellfire). Belief in the existence of Judgment Day is considered a fundamental aspect of faith by all Muslims, and one of the six articles of faith.
While interpretations of what the Quran and hadith say about the end times are "diverse and complex",[1] the signs of Judgment Day's arrival include disruptions in the order of both human morality and the natural world; but also the appearance of the saviors, Mahdi and Jesus, which "is seen to represent the ultimate victory of the ummah of Islam ... in some senses".[2] Piety will be lost as music, wine drinking, usury, homosexuality, disobedience by wives and fornication abound, and the earth will be destroyed. However during this era ʿĪsā (Jesus) and the Mahdi will also vanquish the Antichrist figure al-Dajjāl, while Allah will eliminate the monstrous Gog and Magog, liberating the world from injustice and restoring sharia.[3]
The signs have been divided into minor and major by commentators. They are reported in various ḥadīth collections,[4][5] and described in commentaries of various medieval Muslim scholars, including al-Ghazali, Ibn Kathir, and Muhammad al-Bukhari, among others.[6][1] Islamic apocalyptic literature describing Armageddon (or fitna) is often known as Al-Malhama Al-Kubra (The Great Epic), or (in Shia Islam) Ghaybah (Occultation).[7][8]
