The rising of the sun from the west is also a major sign of Qiyamah proven by the Quran and Sunnah. Allah says in the Quran, The day when some signs of your Lord will come, no good will it do to a person to believe then, if he believed not before, nor earned good (by performing deeds of righteousness) through his faith. (Surah Al-Anaam) Abu Huraira reported that the Holy Prophet Peace and blessings be upon him said, Hasten to do good deeds before six (things happen) :Rising of the sun from the west. (Mishkat) Messenger of Allah Peace and blessings be upon him say, Verily a night will come upon the people which is equivalent of three of your nights. When it comes those that engage themselves in worship during the night will recognise it. One of them will stand in prayer, read his Hizb (The normal amount he has made the habit of reading) and then go to sleep. Thereafter he will wake up (for the second time) read his Hizb in prayer and go to sleep. While this is the situation the people will begin to shout, scream and call one another. They will say, Whats this? With fear they will run to the mosque. To their surprise they will see that the sun has risen from the west. When it reaches the middle of the sky it will return and set in the west. He said Peace and blessings be upon him, That is when Imaan will not benefit anyone (who brings faith after seeing the sign). (An-Nihaya) Narrated by Abu Huraira (R.A), Allahs Messenger Peace and blessings be upon him said, The hour will not come until the sun rises from the west; and when the people see it, then whoever will be living on the surface of the Earth will have faith, and that is (the time) when no good will it do to a person to believe then, if he believed not before. (Bukhari) The real basis of faith is that man believes in the unseen realities on the authority of the Messenger of Allah Peace and blessings be upon him. But when Allah manifests such startling and visible signs which herald the approach of the last hour and by which the veil of the unseen is rent asunder, then the belief becomes meaningless. The rising of the sun from the west will be of great disturbance to nature and will shake the mind of every man and awaken him to see for himself the great power of Allah. At this time the belief of the unseen will lose its importance.
