July 26, 2011  And Imam al-Baqir (AS), he said: (the successor (Qa’im) has two names, a name that is concealed and a name that is announced, as for the name which is concealed it is Ahmed, and the name which is announced it is Mohammed) THE SUN RISES FROM THE WEST By Laila Ali  Since early last year, reports of the Sun Rising from the West have been circulating on the news and on the internet.  In fact it has been proved that the speed of planet Mars has been decreasing in its course toward the eastern direction in the since last summer and to the level that we notice the ‘waver’ between the east and the west and on Wednesday the 30th of July 2010 the planet movement stopped going toward the eastern direction. After which, in the following months of August and September, Mars changed its course towards 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 is called “Retrograde Motion”.  Most scientists state that all the planets will go through the same at least once 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!! Those acquainted with the innerworkings of Islam can instantly recognise this 11 sun shift as the main if not the one of the primary signs of imminent Judgement Day. It is said by our Prophet Muhammed (PBUH&HP) that when the sun rises in the west and sets in the east, the doors of repentance will close and the Rise of the Mahdi (as) the Guided One from my AhlulBayt (as) will be imminent. It is narrated on the authority of Abu Huraira that the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) observed: When three things appear faith will not benefit one who has not previously believed or has derived no good from his faith: the rising of the sun in its place of setting, the dajjal, and the beast of the earth. (Book #001, Hadith #0296) The beast of the earth will come out at the same time, or shortly after to stamp the believer from the unbeliever.  This is a warning given to us from our Creator Allah SWT to our Prophet Muhammed (PBUH&HP) in order that we may heed and be warned.  Brothers and sisters no doubt that we are in the End Times, anyone can see all the minor signs and most of the major signs all around us, however the time where great hardships and disasters will occur all around the world is just before and after the sign of the sun cycle shift.  We are already witnessing many revolutions in the west, middle-east and the east and it will only increase as time goes by, many more so called "natural" disasters will occur more frequently and each one with more destructive force than what preceded it, these are just a few signs of what will happen- the consequences of not heeding are dire.  Kamal El-Din Part 2, p. 653 b 57.  And Imam al-Baqir (AS), he said: (the successor (Qa’im) has two names, a name that is concealed and a name that is announced, as for the name which is concealed it is Ahmed, and the name which is announced it is Moham
