Topic > Judgment Day in Two Religions - 637

Judgment Day is a day that all monotheistic religions believe in. According to monotheistic religions, it is the day the world as we know it ends, people go to heaven or hell depending on what they have done during their life. However, these beliefs vary from one religion to another. Christianity and Islam have many similar beliefs about the Day of Judgment, but Islam has deeper information about what will happen; these beliefs include the signs before the coming of the day, the antichrist, and the appearance of Jesus Christ. These similarities help us understand the idea that Islam came after Christianity to clarify and add more information. First, both religions say that no man knows when judgment day will come. For example, in the Bible it says: “But concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father” (Matthew 24:36). Furthermore, in the Quran it is said: “They ask you, [O Muhammad], concerning the Hour: When will it come? Say, "His knowledge is with my Lord alone. None will reveal its time except Him. It weighs heavily on the heavens and the earth. It will not come upon you except unexpectedly." They ask you as if you know him. Say: “His knowledge is with Allah alone, but most people do not know that his knowledge is with Allah alone” (Surat Al-A'raf [7:187]). This similarity shows that both Christians and Muslims do not know when the day of judgment will come. We can see that there is more or less the same amount of information about the arrival of the judgment day, but the Quran mentions that the judgment day will come "unexpectedly", which was not mentioned in Christianity. Secondly, it is believed that the antichrist will come to the earth before the day of judgment...... middle of the sheet ......y - Hadith of the Prophet. Network. February 26, 2014.
