And this is firmly established through the authentic Sunnah and explicit reports, and indeed through the Book revealed unto the Messenger Prophet (ﷺ). Allah the Exalted says: "The day that some of the signs of your Lord come" [Al-An'am: 158]. The commentators of the Qur'an are in consensus, or the vast majority of them agree, that this refers to the rising of the sun from the west. Muslim recorded from Abdullah ibn Amr ibn al-As (may Allah be pleased with him), who said: "I memorized from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) that he said: 'Verily, the first of the signs to appear will be the rising of the sun from its place of setting, and the emergence of the Beast unto the people in the forenoon. Whichever of the two occurs before the other, the next will follow closely upon its heels.'"

Also in Sahih Muslim, from Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him), the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "The Hour will not be established until the sun rises from its place of setting. When it rises from the west, all people will believe collectively, but on that day, 'no soul will benefit from its faith which had not believed before or earned through its faith some good' [Al-An'am: 158]." And in some transmission paths of al-Bukhari: "Until the sun rises from its place of setting, and when the people see it, everyone upon it (the earth) will believe," to the end of the hadith.
