The book categorizes the signs of Qayamat into Minor Signs (Ashraat-e-Sughra) and Major Signs (Ashraat-e-Kubra)—a structure also reflected in Maulana Ishaq Ishallai’s speeches.

1. Minor Signs – Many Already Fulfilled

These are gradual societal shifts and moral declines that signal the approach of the Hour:

• The death of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ – The first and most significant sign.
• Loss of trust and honesty – People will betray even close relations.
• Obsession with wealth and status – Skyscrapers will rise, and humility will fall.
• Widespread ignorance – Religious scholars will die, and pseudo-scholars will rise.
• Prevalence of immorality – Nudity, vulgarity, and shamelessness will become normalized.
• Disobedience to parents – Children will treat elders with contempt.
• Frequent natural disasters – Earthquakes, pandemics, and floods will increase.
• Time will pass rapidly – A year will feel like a month, a month like a week.
