حدثنا ‏ ‏أبو اليمان ‏ ‏أخبرنا ‏ ‏شعيب ‏ ‏حدثنا ‏ ‏أبو الزناد ‏ ‏عن ‏ ‏عبد الرحمن ‏ ‏عن ‏ ‏أبي هريرة ‏
‏أن رسول الله ‏ ‏صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ ‏قال  ‏  ‏

‏ولتقومن الساعة وقد نشر الرجلان ثوبهما بينهما فلا يتبايعانه ولا يطويانه ولتقومن الساعة وقد انصرف الرجل بلبن لقحته فلا يطعمه ولتقومن الساعة وهو ‏ ‏يليط ‏ ‏حوضه فلا يسقي فيه ولتقومن الساعة وقد رفع أكلته إلى فيه فلا يطعمه

Abu Haraira narrated that Prophet Mohammad صلى الله عليه وسلم  said: "The Hour (of Resurrection) will occur while two men spread a garment (clothing item) and cannot finish buying & selling it or folding it. And the the Hour (of Resurrection) will occur while a man is about to drink the milk of his camel, but will not be able to even taste it. And the the Hour (of Resurrection) will occur while he is repairing his water basin, but will not be able to water from it (or have his livestock drink from it).  And the the Hour (of Resurrection) will occur while he is about to put a bit of food in his mouth, but will not be able to eat it. " (Bukhari)

حديث عقبة بن عامر عند الحاكم لهذه القصة وما بعدها مقدمة قال " قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم تطلع عليكم قبل الساعة سحابة سوداء من قبل المغرب مثل الترس , فما تزال ترتفع حتى تملأ السماء , ثم ينادي مناد أيها الناس - ثلاثا يقول في الثالثة - أتى أمر الله . قال : والذي نفسي بيده إن الرجلين لينشران الثوب بينهما فما يطويانه

Aqaba bin A'mir narrated that Prophet Mohammad صلى الله عليه وسلم  said: " Before the Hour (of Resurrection), a black cloud will appear from the West, like a shield. It starts to rise until it fills the sky. Then, a caller will say 'O People' three times and in the third time, 'Obey the Command of Allah'. He (the Prophet) said: ' I swear by the One whom my soul in his hands, two men will spread a garment (clothing item) between them, but cannot finish folding it'. " (Al-Haakim)

The Trumpet will be sounded three times: (a) upon the first blow, everyone will feel terrified; (b) at the second blow, people will drop dead; (c) at the last blow, everyone will be resurrected. (This is the Day of Resurrection)

The Day of Judgment  may occur a long time later than the Day of Resurrection.

‏حدثنا ‏ ‏عبيد الله بن معاذ العنبري ‏ ‏حدثنا ‏ ‏أبي ‏ ‏حدثنا ‏ ‏شعبة ‏ ‏عن ‏ ‏النعمان بن سالم ‏ ‏قال سمعت ‏ ‏يعقوب بن عاصم بن عروة بن مسعود الثقفي ‏ ‏يقول سمعت ‏ ‏عبد الله بن عمرو ‏ ‏وجاءه رجل فقال ما هذا الحديث الذي تحدث به تقول إن الساعة تقوم إلى كذا وكذا فقال سبحان الله أو لا إله إلا الله ‏ ‏أو كلمة نحوهما ‏ ‏لقد هممت أن لا أحدث أحدا شيئا أبدا إنما قلت إنكم سترون بعد قليل أمرا عظيما يحرق ‏ ‏البيت ‏ ‏ويكون ويكون ‏ ‏ثم قال ‏ ‏قال رسول الله ‏ ‏صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ ‏يخرج ‏ ‏الدجال ‏ ‏في أمتي فيمكث أربعين ‏ ‏لا أدري أربعين يوما أو أربعين شهرا أو أربعين عاما ‏ ‏فيبعث الله ‏ ‏عيسى ابن مريم ‏ ‏كأنه ‏ ‏عروة بن مسعود ‏ ‏فيطلبه فيهلكه ثم يمكث الناس سبع سنين ليس بين اثنين عداوة ثم يرسل الله ريحا باردة من قبل ‏ ‏الشأم ‏ ‏فلا يبقى على وجه الأرض أحد في قلبه مثقال ذرة من خير أو إيمان إلا قبضته حتى لو أن أحدكم دخل في ‏ ‏كبد ‏ ‏جبل لدخلته عليه حتى ‏ ‏تقبضه ‏ ‏قال سمعتها من رسول الله ‏ ‏صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ ‏قال فيبقى شرار الناس في خفة الطير ‏ ‏وأحلام السباع ‏ ‏لا يعرفون معروفا ولا ينكرون منكرا فيتمثل لهم الشيطان فيقول ألا تستجيبون فيقولون فما تأمرنا فيأمرهم بعبادة الأوثان وهم في ذلك ‏ ‏دار ‏ ‏رزقهم حسن عيشهم ثم ينفخ في ‏ ‏الصور ‏ ‏فلا يسمعه أحد إلا ‏ ‏أصغى ‏ ‏ليتا ‏ ‏ورفع ‏ ‏ليتا ‏ ‏قال وأول من يسمعه رجل ‏ ‏يلوط ‏ ‏حوض إبله قال ‏ ‏فيصعق ‏ ‏ويصعق ‏ ‏الناس ثم يرسل الله أو قال ينزل الله مطرا كأنه ‏ ‏الطل ‏ ‏أو الظل ‏ ‏نعمان ‏ ‏الشاك ‏ ‏فتنبت منه أجساد الناس ثم ينفخ فيه أخرى فإذا هم قيام ينظرون ثم يقال يا أيها الناس هلم إلى ربكم ‏   ‏وقفوهم إنهم مسئولون ‏ ‏قال ثم يقال أخرجوا ‏ ‏بعث ‏ ‏النار فيقال من كم فيقال من كل ألف تسع مائة وتسعة وتسعين قال فذاك يوم ‏ ‏يجعل الولدان شيبا ‏ ‏وذلك ‏ ‏يوم يكشف عن ساق ‏

Abdullah bin 'Amr narrated that the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم  said, " The Dajjal (Anti-Christ) will appear in my nation, and will remain for forty - "I cannot say whether he meant forty days, forty months or forty years." - Then Allah will send Jesus son of Mary, who looks like Urwah bin Masud. He (Jesus) will chase the Dajjal and kill him. Jesus will stay among people for seven years during which there will be no enmity between any two persons. Then, Allah will send a cool wind from the direction of Syria, which will take the soul of everyone who has the slightest speck of good or faith in his heart. Even if one of you were to enter the heart of a mountain, the wind would reach him there and take his soul. Only the most wicked people will be left; they will be as careless as birds, with the characteristics of beasts, and will have no concern for right and wrong. Then, Satan will come to them in human form and say: 'Don't you respond?' And they will say: 'What do you order us to do?' And he (Satan) will order them to worship the idols but, in spite of this, they will have abundance of sustenance and lead comfortable lives. Then, the trumpet will be blown and no one will hear that but he will bend his neck and raise it. He (the Prophet) said 'The first one to hear that trumpet will be the person who will be busy repairing the water reservoir for his camels (to drink). He will be struck and the other people will also struck, then Allah will send or He (the Prophet) said will bring down rain which will be like men's semen, out of which the bodies of the (dead) people will grow. Then the trumpet will be blown another time and they (dead people) will be resurrected and be looking around.' Then it will be said: 'O people, go to your Lord (God)'. Then he (the Prophet) mentioned verse 24  of Chapter 37: 'Stop them for they must be questioned.' He (the Prophet) said "Then it will be said 'Bring out the groups of Hell-Fire'. It will be said 'How many ? ' It will be said: 'Out of every one thousand, nine hundred ninety nine.' Then, He (the Prophet) said: 'That is the day (and he mentioned the end of verse 17 of Chapter 73) that makes children turn grey-haired.' Then he mentioned the end of verse 42 of Chapter 68: 'The day that reveals the great affliction, and they will be called to prostrate, but they can not.' "  (Sahih Muslim)

‏حدثنا ‏ ‏أبو كريب محمد بن العلاء ‏ ‏حدثنا ‏ ‏أبو معاوية ‏ ‏عن ‏ ‏الأعمش ‏ ‏عن ‏ ‏أبي صالح ‏ ‏عن ‏ ‏أبي هريرة ‏ ‏قال ‏
‏قال رسول الله ‏ ‏صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ ‏ما بين النفختين أربعون قالوا يا ‏ ‏أبا هريرة ‏ ‏أربعون يوما قال أبيت قالوا أربعون شهرا قال أبيت قالوا أربعون سنة قال أبيت ثم ينزل الله من السماء ماء فينبتون كما ينبت البقل قال وليس من الإنسان شيء إلا يبلى إلا عظما واحدا وهو ‏ ‏عجب الذنب ‏ ‏ومنه ‏ ‏يركب ‏ ‏الخلق يوم القيامة

It has been narrated that Abu Huraira said that the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said: " Between the two blows (of the Trumpet), there are 40. They asked Abu Huraira: "40 days?". Abu Huraira replied: I declined (to specify). They asked Abu Huraira: "40 months?". Abu Huraira replied: I declined (to specify). They asked Abu Huraira: "40 years?". Abu Huraira replied: I declined (to specify). Then, Allah will descend water (rain) from the sky so that they (the dead people) will grow (flesh & bones) the same way grains grow (from seeds planted in the soil). There is nothing (no organ or bone) in a human being that will not vanish (after the human being is buried), except the tail bone from which creatures will be re-constructed on the Day of Resurrection " (Sahih Muslim)  This means that water from the sky will help in growing and reconstructing the bodies of dead people in their graves. Another narration indicates that the period in between the blowing of the Trumpet is 40 years.

Abu Huraira narrated that the Messenger of Allah  صلى الله عليه وسلم said: " The best day on which the sun has risen is Friday; on it Adam was created, on it he was expelled (from Paradise), on it his contrition was accepted, on it he died, and on it (Friday) the Hour (of Resurrection) will take place. On Friday, every beast is on the lookout from dawn to sunrise in fear of the Hour (of Resurrection), but not jinn and men, and it contains a time at which no Muslim prays and asks anything from Allah but He (Allah) will give it to him. Ka'b said: That is one day every year. So I said: It is on every Friday. Ka'b read the Torah and said: The Messenger of Allah  صلى الله عليه وسلم  has spoken the truth. Abu Huraira said: I met Abdullah bin Salam and told him of my meeting with Ka'b. Abdullah bin Salam said: I know what time it is. Abu Huraira said: I asked him to tell me about it. Abdullah bin Salam said: It is at the very end of Friday. I asked: How can it be since the Messenger of Allah  صلى الله عليه وسلم   has said: "No Muslim finds it while he is praying...." and this is the moment when no prayer is offered. Abdullah bin Salam said: Has the Messenger of Allah  صلى الله عليه وسلم  not said: "If anyone is seated waiting for the prayer, he is engaged in the prayer until he observes it." I said: Yes, it is so." (Abu Dawud)
