Help me understand the hadiths regarding The Romans and the Prophecy made by Prophet Muhammad Peace and Blessings of Allah be upon him
Asslam Alaikum. I am having doubts. So basically I saw a post on the internet. The internet said that the Prophet PBUH made a false prophecy with this Hadith: [Sahih Muslim 2900][1] > Nafi' b.

Asslam Alaikum. I am having doubts. So basically I saw a post on the internet. The internet said that the Prophet PBUH made a false prophecy with this Hadith:
Sahih Muslim 2900
> Nafi' b. Utba reported:
>We were with Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) in an expedition that there came a people to Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) from the direction of the west. They were dressed in woollen clothes and they stood near a hillock and they met him as Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) was sitting. I said to myself: Better go to them and stand between him and them that they may not attack him. Then I thought that perhaps there had been going on secret negotiation amongst them. I however, went to them and stood between them and him and I remember four of the words (on that occasion) which I repeat (on the fingers of my hand) that he (Allah's Messenger) said: You will attack Arabia and Allah will enable you to conquer it, then you would attack Persia and He would make you to conquer it. Then you would attack Rome and Allah will enable you to conquer it, then you would attack the Dajjal and Allah will enable you to conquer him. Nafi' said: Jabir, we thought that the Dajjal would appear after Rome (Syrian territory) would be conquered.
So here now it says that the companions thought that Dajjal would come after the conquest of Roman Syria? But that didn't happen. Now I know it could be said this refers to the ends times but that post already knew people would say this and so he states the hadith which says that there will be No caeser after Heraclius in the Syrian territory and there will be no Khosrou in the Iraqi Territory. Then he presents another Hadith that the Last hour will not come until the Romans become the majority of people and he presents commentary of this Hadith saying that the Romans must be continuous. And he says this refers to the Byzantines during the time of Prophet Muhammad PBUH and as we know they don't exist anymore. He says and I quote:
"Why this matters is because the Hadiths regarding the fall of Constantinople then cannot be understood to mean an event where the Roman Empire comes back. It also addresses the explanation I mentioned with the first Hadith, that the Dajjal is to come back at a later date that the Hadith doesn’t say he has to come back right after. If additional conditions for the Dajjal to return is the continuation of the Romans then that is problematic alongside these Hadith regarding Constantinople."
Then he says that assuming that the hadith which states there will be no Caesar after this one refers to the Syrian territories and that the above Hadith refers to the dajjal coming in the future, not after the conquest of Syria, this directly contradicts another Hadith in Sahih muslim which states dajjal will come after roman Syria is conquered (Hadith is Sahih Muslim 2899a) and plus also the other Hadith that Romans will never rule Syria again.
He says
"For brevity there are Hadith regarding Constantinople that put the previous Hadith into perspective and create issues listed here:
-https://sunnah.com/muslim:2920a -https://sunnah.com/muslim:2897 -https://sunnah.com/abudawud:4294 "
He says that historical conquest of Constantinople refutes this prophecy? Any refutations?

I want to say that we are seeing how are the current world leaders killing our Muslim brothers for no reason. And the current Muslim leaders are behaving like they are seeing nothing. Some of them for their own interests and some of them fear current world leaders more than ALLAH. Of course they will be punished for both reasons because they didn't help their brothers in danger. Most probably, more difficult time is coming for Muslims. Now as normal Muslim, I want to know what should I do at the bad times of my brothers?

How to reply to Farooq Tejani on the date of the Hour?
**Surat No. 7 Ayat NO. 187 They ask you, [O Muhammad], about the Hour: when is its arrival? Say, "Its knowledge is only with my Lord. None will reveal its time except Him.

**Surat No. 7 Ayat NO. 187
They ask you, [O Muhammad], about the Hour: when is its arrival? Say, "Its knowledge is only with my Lord. None will reveal its time except Him. It lays heavily upon the heavens and the earth. It will not come upon you except unexpectedly." They ask you as if you are familiar with it. Say, "Its knowledge is only with Allah , but most of the people do not know."**
Farooq Tejani, who claims to "know" the date of the Hour as Muharram 01, 1532, says that "but 'most' of the people do not know" means that some people know when the Hour will come. How to respond to him?

End purpose of Islam
We all know that Islam was brought into this world to bring peace and brotherhood in this world but on the other hand from Hadiths and other sources, we know that till the end of times, there will be war and chaos and there will be coming of Imam Mahdi and Prophet Isa and Dajjal as they will come at...
We all know that Islam was brought into this world to bring peace and brotherhood in this world but on the other hand from Hadiths and other sources, we know that till the end of times, there will be war and chaos and there will be coming of Imam Mahdi and Prophet Isa and Dajjal as they will come at the end of times when there will be lots of battles and fights.
I see this as a contradiction because on the one hand, Islam was brought to bring order to life on Earth, and on the other side we see that till the end of time, there will be battles between people of different religions specifically Jews. This clearly shows that till the end of time, there will be existing non-Muslims and Islam will not be a global religion.
Isn't this similar to the fate of Jinns when they used to live on the planet and at the end of their time Allah SWT sent angels to fight them and eradicate them from the planet and then brought Humans on Earth? If that is true, then aren't we the same as Jinns and no better?

Is the Hadith describing lunar and solar eclipses as signs of Mahdi's arrival authentic?
I recently read the following hadith regarding the arrival of the Mahdi. >اِنَّ لِمَهْدِيَّنَا آيَتَيْنِ لَمْ تَكُوْنَا مُنْذُ خَلْقِ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ، تَنْكَسِفُ الْقَمَرُ لأَوَّلِ لَيْلَةٍ مِنْ رَمَضَانَ، وَ تَنْكَسِفُ الشَّمْسُ فِي النِّصْفِ مِنْهُ، وَلَمْ تَكُوْنَا مُنْذُ خَلَقَ اللّٰهُ...
I recently read the following hadith regarding the arrival of the Mahdi.

>
> “For our Mahdi [Spiritual Reformer] there are two signs which have never appeared before since the creation of the Heavens and the Earth, namely the Moon will be eclipsed on the first night in Ramadan [i.e. on the first of the nights on which a lunar eclipse can occur] and the Sun will be eclipsed on the middle day [i.e. on the middle one of the days on which a solar eclipse can occur]. And these signs have not appeared since God created the Heavens and the Earth.” (Sunan al-Daraqutni, Kitab al-Eidain)
According to Islamqa, the hadith is fabricated but i cannot find any other source claiming this. Is this hadith authentic at all?

In my limited understanding of Judaism, Jews are waiting for the Messiah to come and restore Judaism as the unique faith, bringing peace to the world. For Jews, the Messiah has not yet come.
Meanwhile, Christians consider Jesus to be that Messiah, and are waiting for Jesus to come again at the end of times.
Do Muslims believe a Messiah will come at the end of times? Which Surahs and verses refer to these events?

It is also mentioned that these 40 days would be different then other days because the one day would be like one year, next one would be like one month, next one would be like one week and remaining 37 days would be normal days.
As it is mentioned that one day from 40 days would be like one year, **does it mean that the whole day from morning to night will complete in one year?**

I have been reading the Quran recently and it talks about how a trumpet will be sounded to denote the end of times. This parallels with the Christian book of Revelations, where 7 trumpets will be sounded during the end of times. My question is if Muslims do not believe that the book of Revelations is one of the four canonical scriptures (Torah, Psalm, Gospel, Qur'an), why is the mention of trumpets in both Revelations and the Qur'an?

Is the qur'an referring to the same creature in these two verses?
In the Qur'an we find in surat an-Naml: > And when the word befalls them, We will bring forth for them **a creature from the earth** speaking to them, [saying] that the people were, of Our verses, not certain [in faith]. ([27:82][1]) This verse is often used as a reference when speaking about the so...
In the Qur'an we find in surat an-Naml:
> And when the word befalls them, We will bring forth for them **a creature from the earth** speaking to them, [saying] that the people were, of Our verses, not certain [in faith]. (27:82 )
This verse is often used as a reference when speaking about the so called creature from earth دابة الأرض. And the verse seems to indicate that this creature will only appear in the end times.
Nevertheless we find a verse in surat Saba' which seems to indicate that it already appeared:
> And when We decreed for Solomon death, nothing indicated to the jinn his death except **a creature of the earth** eating his staff. But when he fell, it became clear to the jinn that if they had known the unseen, they would not have remained in humiliating punishment. (34:14 )
Are the two verses referring to the same creature? If not which is the other creature meant in the second verse?
