[Collection & Reference]: Narration #6531 in Musnad Ahmad.

[Core Subject]: One morning the sun will rise from the west. When people see it, everyone will believe, but faith that was not there before will no longer help, and the door of repentance closes.

[Described Characteristics]: The Quran says: 'On the day some of your Lord's signs come, no soul will benefit from its faith if it had not believed before.' The Prophet ﷺ explained that this is the rising of the sun from its place of setting.

[Timeline & Context]: The first of the last signs to appear is either the sun rising from the west or the Beast coming out in the forenoon; whichever comes first, the other follows soon after.

[Prophetic Practice]: Allah stretches out His hand by night for the one who sinned by day, and by day for the one who sinned by night, until the sun rises from the west. Repent today.

[Core Subject]: The Beast (Dabbat al-Ard) is a creature that Allah will bring out of the earth near the end. It speaks to people and marks them as believers or disbelievers.

[Described Characteristics]: The Quran says: 'We will bring out for them a beast from the earth that will speak to them, that people had no certain faith in Our signs.' Narrations in al-Tirmidhi and Ahmad add that it marks faces, so that people are known as believer or disbeliever in the marketplace; scholars differ on the grading of these details.

[Timeline & Context]: It comes close to the sun rising from the west: whichever of the two comes first, the other follows soon after.

[Prophetic Practice]: This is one of the six before which the Prophet ﷺ urged us to hasten to good deeds.
