I am very interested in what Islam says will happen right before christ coming. Or what are the signs that judgment is about to take place or real soon?
If you could put them in numbered form that would be great.
There are two types of signs of the day of Judgement. The minor ones and the major ones.
Minor signs will appear a long time before the Hour approaches, such as the decline of knowledge, the spread of ignorance, drinking of wine or alcohol, competition in the construction of tall buildings, and many others. The scholars have listed almost sixty signs, some of which will accompany the major signs, or will appear afterwards. Additionally, the minor signs may not appear in all parts of the world, but they will be noticed.
The major ones are those which appear shortly before the day of judgement and they are extraordinary events.
