The dreaded date is drawing near. Are there people who still believe that the world will finally end?

december 21, 2012 is it for real? I need to go home before that date..

Anything you quoted, chota, has no meaning at all, because you don't say "when" it will happen. If someone asks you "when?" your answer should include a precise date, otherwise it's only gibberish.

Narrated, "Allah's 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."

I agree with you, Marco. But, on the other hand, science has gone through development. Sure, some scientific "laws" have been altered or even abolished, but the general trend is towards more and more precise predictions, and not into the opposite direction.

Well I think some of our QL self-proclaimed scientific gurus and Think tanks have the wrong understanding of what science is (I am saying this respectfully of course). What mean by this is that science is not always going to be right anyway because sciences not suppose to be seen as something that is absolute because sciences is falsifiable what I mean by this is that evidence that sciences provides may be proven wrong by later findings.

it will end but to when no one knows..

like we humans, as to when no one can tell..

LP has a point, like for a sick person for instance, a person having a stage 4-5 kidney failure doctors can simulate when it can last through the progress of the disease..

as to the exact date no of hes last breath one can predict..

Allah says, ''So thou wait for the day when the heaven shall bring a smoke manifest surrounding the people this is a painful Chastisement.'' ( Surah-Dhukan)

Wasila-Bb-l-Asqa reported, ''I heard the Prophet saying, ''The final hour will not come until you see ten signs. '' (one of the ten mentioned was the smoke) (Muslim)

It is clearly evident from the above verse and Ahadith that the smoke is a major sign of Qiyamah. It will rise and cover the whole world. The smoke will affect both the believers and non-belivers alike remaining for a period of 40 days and night. The believers will be affected a little as if suffering from cold while the smoke will enter the brains of the non-belivers and make them unconscious.

r the below facts ? theories

There will be three landslides before like never seen before. One in the East, one in the West and one in Arabia. The Earth will swallow everything above it and as a result, many people will die. However, everybody will be raised according to his intentions. This will take place when evil prevails.

The rising of the sun from the west is also a major sign of Qiyamah proven by the Qur'an and Sunnah.

Allah says in the Qur'an, "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-An'aam)

We know how many liters of "fuel" the sun has, TB. We know how much it uses every second. We can predict when it stops shining and collapses. Just as we can predict when you'll be out of petrol.

TB, if you have 100 liters of fuel in your tank, and your car uses 14 liters per 100 kilometers, you can exactly say after which distance you will be out of fuel. That's NOT speculation!

The funny thing is that religion doesn't tell you "when". I guess, it's because they have no clue. Science can predict the "end" by calculating the amount of mass that the sun loses through the fusion process(5 million tons per second and as you all know, it's the annihilation of an electron and a W+ particle which is required to change an up-quark in a proton into a down-quark to make a neutron out of the proton), and from the current size of the sun, science can determine when the end will be there. There is no reason to 'believe' it, it's a simple calculation.

The sun has hardly enough mass to become a super nova. But in 4 to 5 billion years it will begin to expand and scorch the Earth with around 400 to 500 degrees Celsius. The Earth will still be there, but life can't survive these temperatures. So, the Mayas were wrong, and Nostradamus was wrong. But if you still believe in them, it's your choice.

Of course, this world will end .. but when it's time?just Allah Almighty know

All that is on earth will perish .. Except Allah Almighty

Allah Almighty says:

{ كُلُّ مَنْ عَلَيْهَا فَانٍ وَيَبْقَىٰ وَ جْهُ رَبِّكَ ذُو الْجَلَالِ وَالْإِكْرَامِ فَبِأَيِّ آلَاءِ رَبِّكُمَا تُكَذِّبَانِ }

Translation:

{ All that is on earth will perish} Verse No: 26

{ But will abide (forever) the Face of thy Lord,- full of Majesty, Bounty and Honour.}Verse No: 27

{Then which of the favours of your Lord will ye deny?} Verse No: 28

Religion aside, yes there will be an end of the world. It could be tomorrow or hundreds of millions of years from now. It is simply inevitable the Earth will be struck by a large enough object to create another extinction event. It has happened many times in the past. Then there are the odd chances of Gamma Ray Bursts or the inevitable Supernova of our own Sun. That is scientific fact.

Are you talking about the end of the Mayan Calendar?

So, the world's going to end December 21st, 2012, huh....?

Since Ceasar introduced leap years in 45BC, there have been 515 leap years including this year(so im told). Without those extra days, the date would be the ~12 of November, 2013.

Since the Mayan Calendar didn't use leap years, the apocalypse (21st of the 12th 2012) was ~11 months ago... So congratulations on surviving!
