The End?

Salam all. It seems like I've been losing track of what's happening around me. I checked out Yahoo news just now and I accidentally came across an article about a prediction of The End. Yes, the end. The Judgment day some of them called. Someone, predicted that 21st May 2011 - which is today! - is going to be the day.

So to cut the story short, this guy said earthquakes will occur in different regions of the world in exactly 6.00 p.m (drg pnye time lah). The thing is, it's 11.30 p.m. already and nothing happened. Of course, NO ONE can predict the end of time especially a human being. Only Allah S.W.T knows when. Definitely not this guy.

Anyhoo, when he told everyone the end was going to come, he totally sent everybody being the best of themselves. Some repent, some getting ready, some went to the beach (hope to see what?), some even bought stuff to prepare for the end! I mean, what is this? Do we only repent when the end is coming? Or when we know we're going to die?

All these predictions, why even bother to predict? We're not meant to know the day. We can only prepare ourselves and pray Allah will guide us. NOT GO TO THE BEACH!

Seriosly lah these people. I read all the comments and some of them made fun of the kiamah. I am lost for words. We all know, when the end comes, our repents, our regrets will not mean anything. Allah gave us our whole life to do it, why didn't we? Pray He will not lead us astray and give us guidance. Amin..

I do believe that the end is near. It could happen tomorrow, next week or next month, I don't know. We can keep predicting but only Allah knows when the day will come.

Allah Almighty answer inside the Quran :

Chapter (Surah) 67

67.25. They ask: When will this promise be (fulfilled)[the doomsday]? - If ye are telling the truth.

67.26. Say: "As to the knowledge of the time, it is with Allah alone: I am (Muhammad) sent only to warn plainly in public."

67.27. At length, when they see it close at hand, grieved will be the faces of the Unbelievers, and it will be said (to them): "This is (the promise fulfilled), which ye were calling for!"

May we be among the believers. Amin..
