Muntakhab al-Asar

edit

@Saff V.: Muntakhab al-Asar is mentioned in this article, but no specific book or journal is mentioned. Which of his works are cited in this article? Jarble (talk) 19:59, 17 October 2015 (UTC)Reply

Part of a series on Sunni Islam?

edit

The page contains info using both Sunni and as much Shi'ite sources/views, some are exclusive to their own specific branches. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.253.151.98 (talk) 20:18, 16 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

Own research

edit

It seems like this page has a lot of WP:OR, specifically in how the notes and references are tied to the items in the list of signs. It needs to be heavily edited down so we are just portraying what the sources say and not making our own connections and research. Jushyosaha604 (talk) 18:22, 18 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

Shia signs certain, sunni hadiths uncertain

edit

Seems like a very bias article. The majority of Muslims are sunni, why are sunni books of Hadith uncertain? 2601:644:8D7E:4C00:3533:C6F4:E419:E17 (talk) 05:59, 2 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

I fixed it and changed sections to shia and sunni — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:644:8D7E:4C00:3490:92FC:7462:2C69 (talk) 20:48, 2 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

Suggestion: change name to Signs of the coming of Judgement Day

edit

Why?

  • Chronology is not clear. At least some "signs" come after the arrival of the Mahdi, for example the arrival of Jesus, the breeze that kills all Muslims.
  • Checking websites and sources I see sections for ishiiriit al-sii'a but not Signs of the appearance of Mahdi. And not just for Sunni sites! see here.

At very least there should be another article on Signs of the coming of Judgement Day. --Louis P. Boog (talk) 16:53, 22 April 2022 (UTC)Reply

Have created Signs of the coming of Judgement Day article. Will worry about merging later. --Louis P. Boog (talk) 19:37, 23 April 2022 (UTC)Reply
