Signs of Judgement Day

Tafsīr Ṣirāṭ al-Jinān explains this verse:

The moon being split into two is a clear miracle of the Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم, and a sign of the nearness of the Day of Judgement, which has appeared.^{^[1]}

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

2. A slave-girl will give birth to her master

As mentioned previously, a sign of the Day of Judgement is that a slave-girl will give birth to her master. The scholars have interpreted this in many ways. The opinion that is fitting of our society is that people will treat their mothers like slaves, disobey them, violate their rights, and harm them. They will treat their mothers like a master treats his slave.^{^[2]}

Mufti Aḥmad Yār Khan NaꜤīmī explains:

Children will become disobedient, and a son will treat his mother like a slave. So, it is as if she has given birth to her master.^{^[3]}

The unfortunate state of society

Unfortunately, if we look at our communities, we will find some people who do not treat their parents well, particularly their mothers. They roar like lions in front of their mothers and are unable to control their tongues. We read news stories about foolish individuals who even beat their mothers. A mother is the one who brings happiness to the home, and without her the home feels desolate. Therefore, serve your mother, be kind to her, please her, and do not harm her or upset her in any way. Do not argue with her, do not raise your voice when speaking to her,
