What if it's all true and there's no averting it?
God did talk to His people by means of His Messengers. Who knows best what is about to happen to the World except Him who created it?
One of the things that Allah (God) reveals in the Qur'an is that the universe has been created and that it will come to an end. The universe will, as
will human beings and all other living things, come to an end. This ordered world, which has functioned perfectly for billions of years, is the work
of our Lord, Who created everything, though it will come to a grand end at His command, and at a time that He has determined.
The appointed time when the universe and every creature in it, from microorganisms to human beings, including stars and galaxies, will come to an end,
is called the "Hour" in the Qur'an. This "Hour" refers to not just any hour; but is a word used specifically in the Qur'an to refer to that time
when the world will come to an end.
One thing that interested me in the video is the mention of the Van Allen Belt, or the protective roof that is shielding the Earth, because it is
mentioned in the Holy Qur'an.
21:32
And We have made the sky a roof withheld (from them). Yet they turn away from its portents.
The Van Allen belts protect us against radiation bombardment. Had it not been for this, life on earth would have been impossible. The lethal cosmic
rays coming from the stars other than the sun cannot penetrate this shield. These plasma clouds can reach 100 billion-fold the value of the atom bomb
dropped over Hiroshima. Thanks to the Van Allen belts at a distance of 60,000 km from the world, the solar winds cannot penetrate the earth we live
in. The “Well protected roof” in the verse 21:32 was the result of the speed of rotation of our world, its position in relation to the sun, the
structure, the shape and thickness of atmospheric layers, the structure of the core of the earth, the proportion of the constituents in its
composition and the perfect and harmonious combinations of a multitude of parameters have made this possible. The Author of all these prerequisites
for our life cannot be other than the Creator Himself.
Again, God tells us in The Holy Qur'an that there will be a day when this protective sky will not protect us anymore.
69:13 And when the trumpet shall sound one blast -
69:14 And the earth with the mountains shall be lifted up and crushed with one crash,
69:15 Then, on that day will the Event befall.
69:16
And the heaven will split asunder, for that day it will be frail.

The Holy Qur'an talks of obliteration coming from the sky, or a piece of the sky falling. The most significant here is the overthrowing of the
sun, in today's terms it could be a massive solar storm which will eventually destroy the Van Allen Belt, without this magnetic protection, then what
will protect us from an obliteration coming from the sky?
70:8 The day when the sky will become as molten copper,
70:9 And the hills become as flakes of wool,
70:10 And no familiar friend will ask a question of his friend
70:11 Though they will be given sight of them. The guilty man will long be able to ransom himself from the punishment of that day at the price of his
children
70:12 And his spouse and his brother -
70:13 And his kin that harbored him
70:14 And all that are in the earth, if then it might deliver him.
81:1
When the sun is overthrown,
81:2 And when the stars fall
81:3 And when the hills are moved,
81:6 And when the seas rise,
55:37 And when the heaven splitteth asunder and becometh rosy like red hide
34:9 See they not what is before them and behind them, of the sky and the earth? If We wished, We could cause the earth to swallow them up, or cause
a piece of the sky to fall upon them. Verily in this is a Sign for every devotee that turns to Allah (in repentance).
The rolling up of the Heavens the Big Crunch as opposed to the Big Bang of Creation
21:30 Have not those who disbelieve known that the heavens and the earth were of one piece, then We parted them, and We made every living thing of
water? Will they not then believe?
21:104 The Day when We shall roll up the heavens as a recorder rolleth up a written scroll. As We began the first creation, We shall repeat it. (It
is) a promise (binding) upon Us. Lo! We are to perform it.

7:187- They ask you about the Hour and when it will come to pass. Say, “The knowledge thereof is with my Lord. Only He will reveal its time. Heavy
it is, in the heavens and the earth. It will come to you suddenly.”
33:63 Men ask you of the hour. Say: The knowledge of it is with Allah only. What can convey the knowledge unto thee? It may be that the hour is
nigh.
If you can't save your body, save your souls. Reflect upon the prodigal son whose return caused the angels in Heaven to rejoice. We're
waiting!
