While surfing throughout the internet, I came across a Nasa article replying to a question about the end of time. Well, I do not speak about the widespread 2012 myth, that has been used by some for sake of accumulating some money. As a Muslim, I believe that only God has the knowledge of the end of time. Padi Boyd, an astronomer of Nasa team, speaks first about the expansion of the universe and says:
We observe all distant galaxies to be receding from us, and from this we conclude that the Universe is expanding uniformly. In fact, the current picture of the evolution of the cosmos is that since the birth of the Universe in the explosive Big Bang, the Universe has continued to expand.
God says in the Holy Qur'an:
"Indeed, We have built the heaven (the universe) with Might, and We are expanding it."
How could the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) know about the expansion of the universe, if it was not a revelation from God, the Al Mighty?
Padi Boyd continues to say:
The expansion will slow down and eventually reverse, so that the Universe will be contracting. Eventually it will end in a collapse (or a bounce) called the Big Crunch.
Scientists also liken the universe to a flat paper book, that might fold at the end of times:
...the geometry of the universe is flat, like a sheet of paper... (see the source)
God says in the Chapter of Al Anbiya:
The Day when We will fold the heaven like the folding of a [written] sheet for the records. As We began the first creation, We will repeat it.[That is] a promise binding upon Us. Indeed, We will do it. (104)
In the previous verse, God speaks about the expansion of heaven, and in this one He speaks about its retraction. Isn't this what astronomers confirm by scientific research? Wasn't the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh)truthful when he talked about this revelation in the Holy Qur'an?
The End of Times is Qur'anic truth confirmed by scientific research.

If the end is apon us, why is there so many sightings around the world of ufos? Where do they play apart? Are they to help us or to hurt us? Is it smart to even prepaire for the end ?
