Thus, from the size of the universe as well as from the hadiths, it seems that the whole event of Doomsday will take quite a long period of time. Professor Bashiurdin Mahmood has given an approximate length of the Doomsday. He said that from the Quranic verse 70:4, the minimum length of the Dooms may be as long as 50,000 solar years. But the length of one day of Allah is equal to 1000 solar years (32:5) .

In this proportion, the period of Universal Doomsday from the star t to the end may be as long as 18 billion solar years of our ear thly measure of time. However, this is just a figure based on some reliable calculation. But no one knows the actual duration of the Doomsday. Allah is All- Mighty. He can do everything. He can complete it in 18 seconds or less, and He can spread it in 18 billion of solar years.

Another clue in support of the above calculation is that Allah (swt) has created the universe in six days. These days are not cer tainly the 24 hours days of ours, as the sun and the ear th were not created then. Six days means six periods which may be of billions or trillions of years duration. Thus, as creation of the universe has taken trillions of years, the distraction process can also consume billion years. [Allah knows better.] How the Doomsday will start ?

The Doomsday will appear all of sudden with a catastrophic big bang. It has been referred in the Holy Quran as Soor. No one knows the actual nature of the Soor. But Quran tells us that the Soor will be a tremendous bang which will spread a wave of terror throughout the universe. "And the day when the Soor will be blown and all who are in the heavens and the earth, will stare in terror, save him whom Allah wills." (27:87) There will be two Soors: The First Soor The Divine Bugle!

The Big - Bang - Sound! - The star t of the Universal Doomsday. It will be a horrible event. The whole universe will star t shaking causing to shake everything everywhere. The Quran has called it a 'heavy day ' "Heavy day in the Heavens and the Earth". (7:187 ) An unprecedented and an unexampled condition of sweeping chaos on a cosmological scale will grip the entire universe.

The residents of planet ear th will experience tremendous turbulence of whole-earthquake, that has never occurred before in the entire history of mankind. Then a chain of disastrous events will occur one after the other destroying the whole universe.
