Allah -azwj Announces the earthquake which will announce the Doomsday. In Al-Safi, it is narrated by Syeda Fatima ‑asws , Syeda said: An earthquake struck the people during the time of Abu Bakr, so the people were frightened and went to Abu Bakr and Umar, and they found them going out in a panic to Ali ‑asws . The people followed them until they reached the door of Ali ‑asws .

He ‑asws came out to them, not caring about what they were doing, so he ‑asws went and the people followed him ‑asws until they reached a hill, so he ‑asws sat on it and they sat around him ‑asws , watching the city walls shaking back and forth. Ali ‑asws said to them: It seems that what you see has frightened you. They said: How can it not frighten us when we have never seen anything like it?

He ‑asws moved his ‑asws lips, then struck the ground with his blessed hand, then said: What is the matter with you? Be still! So it became still by Allah ‑azwj ’s permission. They were more amazed at that than they were at the first time when he ‑asws came out to them.

He ‑asws said to them, “You have indeed been amazed at my work.” They said, “Yes.” He ‑asws said, “I ‑asws am the man about whom Allah ‑azwj said, ‘When the earth is shaken with its [final] earthquake and the earth discharges its burdens and man says, ‘What is wrong with it?’” So I ‑asws am the man ‑asws who will say to it, “What is wrong with you?” That Day it will tell its news to me ‑asws .
