The Beast of the Earth (دابة الأرض Dabbat al-Ardḍ), in Muslim belief, will be one of the signs of the coming of the Last Day. This creature will appear after the sun arises in the west. The phrase appears in the Qur'an, in Sura An-Naml. The term also appears in the ''hadith'', which expands upon the activities of the beast. The Qur'an mentions that the Beast will address the unbelievers and admonish them for their lack of attention towards God. The following is the purport of the Qur'anic verse that has been discussed: The Beast is mentioned to have the Staff of Moses and the Seal of Solomon. It will strike the face of the disbelievers with the ring of Solomon; “He is destined for Hell” will be written on his forehead, and his face will blacken and it will brighten the face of the believer with the staff of Moses and “He is destined for Paradise” will be written on his forehead. As it is seen, when the Beast emerges, people will start to believe, but belief will not be accepted anymore because of the emergence of the major signs. ==See also== * The Beast (Revelation) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Beast of the Earth」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
