I found this on my friendster bulletin board.

The science of astronomy states that the
speed of
planet Mars has been
decreasing in its course toward the
eastern
direction in the few past weeks
to the level we notice the "waver"
between the
east and the west..and on
Wednesday the 30th of July the planet
movement
stopped going toward the
eastern direction..


Then in the months of August and
September...Mars changed its course in
the
opposite direction to the West- and that
until the
end of September..which
means the sun will rise now from the west
on
Mars!!

And this weird phenomena of the
opposite
movement called "Retrograde Motion"
Most scientist state that all the planets
will go
through the same once at
least and our planet Earth is one of them.
Planet
Earth will move in the
opposite direction some day and the sun
will rise
from the west!!

This might occur soon and we are
unaware!


The rise of the sun from the west is
mentioned in
the hadith and this is the
major sign of the day of judgment, most
if not All,
the minor signs have
occured. Wake up.


Our beloved messenger Mohammad
(Peace Be
Upon Him) said: "One of the signs
of the hour..the sun will rise from the
west, where
no longer tauba
(forgiveness) will be granted" !!

And the strange thing..most of our
Shariah
scholars mentioned that the rise
of the sun from the west occurs only
once..on that
day..the sun will rise
from the west..then again from the
east..and
continues until Allah
wishes..and this is similar to what is
happening to
Mars..it stops, then it
changes its course of direction for a short
period
of time..then returns to
way once it was.

And Abdullah Bin Amro (R.A.) said: (I
memorized
from the messenger (Peace Be
Upon Him) a hadith I will never forget..I
heard the
messenger of Allah
(Peace Be Upon Him) say: The first aya
to come
the rise of the sun from the
west) [Ahmad]

And the messenger (Peace Be Upon
Him) "Allah
places HIS hand at night to
forgive his morning sinners, and places in
the
morning to forgive his night
sinners until the sun rises from the west"
[Muslim]

This piece of news is very important as it
brings
with it a great sign of
warning and remembrance of the coming
of a new
WORLD - the world of the
Hereafter And it is also good material for
calling
others to ALLAH -
whether for muslims, the unwary of us or
the kufar.
When we show this hadith
that was told 1400 years ago about this
miracle..you will see InshaALLAH, a
lot will enter this beautiful religion...And
the
muslims if they see this
phenomena happening in Mars..who
knows
maybe it would bring them closer to
our CREATOR.

May Allah keep all of us in the Right path
and
provide us with success in
this world as well as in the hereafter.

But isn't the East-West Sunrise-Sunset recurrence based on the spinning of the Earth? Retrograde Motion is just the change of a planets course from East to West instead of West to East. This however doesn't change the spinning of a planet. Not that I know of. Thus, this wouldn't change the sunrise and sunset cycle. I think. Hahaha.

But I still think that instilling fear to people is stupid. Balls to you fairy tale man.

We need Hanif. Where is that blue gorilla anyway?
