In more than 15 ahadith found in the Sahih of Imam Bukhari, Sunnan of Imam Abu Dawwud, Jamii of Imam Tirmidhi and others, the prophet (saws) said Islam has a specific lifespan on earth, these Ahadith state Allah gave Islam 1500 years then after this He would establish the Hour, we are now in the year 1437 H of the Islamic calendar, this book quotes these Ahadith and discusses them giving specific years for when events are expected to occur as the prophet (saws) mentioned.

Because we can place all the ahadtih on a timeline we can place names and years for when the events occur, which all leads to one question when will the end come. For muslims there are two “ends” they are waiting for in life, the hour itself and the end of Islam on earth before that time.

This book will present not just the ahadith that speak about the specific lifespan of Islam, but the ahadith in which the prophet gave a timeline for events in years such as Imam Mahdi (ra) ruling for 9 years or Isa (as) remaining on earth for 40 years after He (saws) returns, this book will show that both types of Ahadith say the exact same thing about how much time Islam has.

The Prophet Muhammad (saws) said to us 1500 years is not an exact number because people in the ancient world gave general estimations, they rounded up or down, scientific accuracy is an entirely modern phenomenon. He (saws) said to us the Major events surrounding the hour will wrap up by about 1550 H, that isn't an exact number because Allah as ahadith mention sometimes delays events to give people time, 1536H was something the people of Allah inspired us with so you could understand the delay more accurately, while Allah inspired us with 1510H to show how much closer it is. We have not had time to adjust our work on this website, we used the same numbers the scholars used. How does this impact things; If we work backwards from the end, two major events can tell us everything, the time of Jesus (q) on earth after His (q) return which is 40 years, and the time between His (q) death when Allah will remove religion from this earth by taking the lives of all religious people, which is about 7 years. 1536H - 40 - 7 = 1489H to 1503H is when Isa (as) will return. We are now in the year 1442H (2020).
