    Salaam,
    Actually you can find a similar prophesy by Raam in Bhagavadgheeta ... So I would suggest you do your homework and do not depend on others to search for you.
    All I know is that the sign of the approaching hour is in the Quran and that is the latest version.
    peace

    Well if you read this thread you'd realize that I did my homework and am certainly not depending on you to do mine. But I am (maybe mistakenly) expecting you to do yours. Since you say you've "heard" christian missionaries quoting the above prophecies what you need to do is find where in the chrisitan texts they have these prophecies. For e.g. the hadith about the bedouins competing to build tall buildings, let's take that one for now. Did you here the christian missionaries voice that prophecy ? And if so did you check if it was indeed in the christian texts, or maybe THEY were cheating off bukhari ? And if you did indeed check, so did you find it in the christian texts ? And if not then why did you say that you heard these prophecies from christian missionaries? Looking forward to your answer.

      Peace "dbrowser",

      I've quoted it about 3 times on this thread already! Anyway here you go

      BUKHARI
      Volume 001, Book 002, Hadith Number 047.

      Narated By Abu Huraira One day while the Prophet was sitting in the company of some people, (The angel) Gabriel came and asked, "What is faith?" Allah's Apostle replied, 'Faith is to believe in Allah, His angels, (the) meeting with Him, His Apostles, and to believe in Resurrection." Then he further asked, "What is Islam?" Allah's Apostle replied, "To worship Allah Alone and none else, to offer prayers perfectly to pay the compulsory charity (Zakat) and to observe fasts during the month of Ramadan." Then he further asked, "What is Ihsan (perfection)?" Allah's Apostle replied, "To worship Allah as if you see Him, and if you cannot achieve this state of devotion then you must consider that He is looking at you." Then he further asked, "When will the Hour be established?" Allah's Apostle replied, "The answerer has no better knowledge than the questioner. But I will inform you about its portents.

      1. When a slave (lady) gives birth to her master.
      2. When the shepherds of black camels start boasting and competing with others in the construction of higher buildings. And the Hour is one of five things which nobody knows except Allah. - REFER TO THIS http//study.grissomhome.com/wordpress/?p=25

      The Prophet then recited "Verily, with Allah (Alone) is the knowledge of the Hour..." (31. 34) Then that man (Gabriel) left and the Prophet asked his companions to call him back, but they could not see him. Then the Prophet said, "That was Gabriel who came to teach the people their religion." Abu 'Abdullah said He (the Prophet) considered all that as a part of faith.

      JK- Ok this is no specific prophecy at all. 1 can also happen any time. Sure a day could come when a certain region could get slaves and the neborn free themselves and enslave their parents because they treated them harshly. This cycle can happen over and over. As to no 2 are the Arabs the only ones who possess camels? Egypt has camels too. So this could well be referring to the camel shepherds of Egypt. Surely Arabs knew about the egyptians and their tall buildings so this is no specific prophecy. GOD Bless!

        Do a Google search for 'end of the world prophecies' and you would find all the sources including the Christian ones in detail.
        Btw. there is one modern prophecy which says that there will be a gathering of world leaders at the greatest show on earth and straight after that there will be chaos, so I am watching the China Olympics, which everyone is saying is the most spectactular show, so get ready, elektro

          Yeah the Egyptians have camels too as does the UAE which is the hotspot of skyscraper construction. Either way, the prophecy came true. As for the Arabs surely knowing about the egyptians and their tall buildings, what tall buildings ? Skyscrapers weren't around till like earlier this century, that too in the states. "Bedouins will compete to build tall buildings" and whats happening in the UAE rite now - I mean come on to deny the similarity is a little too ignorant don't you think ? That's like saying the prophecy in the first few ayahs of Surah Rum are a coincidence.

          And it's not just this one hadith or prophecy - check out the youtube video I posted in my first message here.

            I can do a google search for "endoftimes" too but thats not the point here. Please answer my questions in my post above, which I'm repasting here for your benefit

              Now let me ask what Prophesies have got to do with obeying God and the messenger? The Prophet denies knowing the future in the Qura'an which should be enough to discard any hadiths pretending to be of the Prophet prophesying the future. Only Allah knows when the hour is due.
              You have wasted too much time on hadiths; go and spend time on reading the Quran and you would be obeying the messenger.
              I will not oblige you with another response on this subject.

                JK- MAN are pyramids not tall buildings? Ocourse they are. The hadith doesnt specifically say "skyscrapers" does it? So this hadith can apply to any tall building and there is probably not a people in the world who one day or another wont try to build larger and larger buildings. This is something which has always fasinated humans as one can see from the Egyptians. So the only ignorant thing would be to accept this as a significant prophecy. GOD Bless!

                  ok so lemme get this straight You come along, make a statement that you've heard these prophecies from christian missionaries. Then when I ask you to point me to the source, you say you've heard it from Raam. Then when I re-request you to point me to the source of your original claim, you runaway ? What's up with all the vagueness and not specifying your source? Wait do you even HAVE a base for everything you just said?

                  When someone makes a bunch of claims but when they're asked about the source they really don't have any, it means their words are baseless.

                  And yes please don't oblige me with any of your "answers", that really is a favor coz I'd rather not waste my time reading and responding to baselessness.

                    And do we know for sure when the pyramids were built ? Before or after the prophet ?

                              Yes with Allah alone is knowledge of the hour. Nobody knows when the hour is. There is nothing in the Quran or the hadith for that matter which tells us WHEN the hour is.

                              But there are ayahs in the Quran telling us what happens on jdugement day etc. There is also an ayah in the Quran saying that the signs of judgement day have come, and that signs such as Yajuj Majuj etc will come. Therefore, the verse you quoted must be referring to WHEN the hour is.

                                Salam Arnab,
                                I did search and guess what I didn't find it. Farida said she's heard the prophecies from christian missinoaries. Well guess what the prophecy about "the bedouins will be competing to build tall buildings" - I did NOT find it in the christiant texts or on sheikh google. But since you apparently did, please do me a favor and send that prophecy to me from the chrisitan texts and/or the gita. Thanks!

                                Also "christianity" or "the gita" is not exactly considered a reference. If you really have a reference you be as specific as possible, down to the verse/page/chapter whatever #.

                                  Salam Arnab,
                                  I did search and guess what I didn't find it. Farida said she's heard the prophecies from christian missinoaries. Well guess what the prophecy about "the bedouins will be competing to build tall buildings" - I did NOT find it in the christiant texts or on sheikh google. But since you apparently did, please do me a favor and send that prophecy to me from the chrisitan texts and/or the gita. Thanks!

                                  Salam,

                                    Peace "dbrowser",

                                    And do we know for sure when the pyramids were built ? Before or after the prophet ?

                                    JK- The pyramids were built way before the Prophet Muhammad. Infact they were built way before Prophet Jesus was born. GOD Bless!

                                      NO ? That means you didn't find it ?

                                        and how do you know this ? Through history ? Which we know is the most unreliable source of facts. You get my point ?

                                          JK- MAN im sorry to say but if you ddidnt know this then you lack basic archaeology lessons. Theres accurate archaeological evidence for this. Here
                                          http//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egyptian_pyramids#Construction_dates
                                          The pyramids have been dated using various dating methods by modern scientific means. There can be no dount about here date just like there isnt tht the earth is billions of years old and not just a couple of thousand. GOD Bless!
