“Doomsday will not come until the sun rises from where it sets.” Many think that this sentence is a verse, but it is actually a hadith. Sometimes we see the fear of believers being exploited with misleading news by using this hadith to attract attention on social media.

In fact, such accusations are made not only by Facebook uncles, but also by the country’s most well-known media bodies. It can be shared as if it were real. To eliminate this information pollution a bit, let’s explain how possible this possibility is:

The shift of Earth’s magnetic pole is cited as evidence that the sun will one day rise from the west. So is this really possible?

Earth’s magnetic center slipped right. Our planet’s magnetic center is shifting from Canada to Siberia along the North Pole, but this: It is not a sign that it will rise from the west.

This unfounded claim was first revealed by the deformation of Earth’s magnetic modeling announced by the US National Geospatial Intelligence Agency on December 10, 2019. However, the official statement states that the change in the magnetic field changes the rising direction of the sun. will change. there is no information.

This change slightly misrepresents the north direction in the navigation and compasses in the first phase, but thanks to this data, this is already the case. for updates Vehicles such as airplanes and submarines are prevented from making mistakes while navigating.

How does the Earth’s magnetic field work?

As you know there are many elements in the universe and each of them has a different gravity/magnetization. iron and nickel The magnetism of metals like this is very high, these metals create a gravitational field because they are found in large quantities in the core of the earth. This density is higher in regions close to the North Pole. So thanks to this electromagnetic force compass needle indicates north.

What Causes Magnetic Field Deflection?

Because the elements that create the magnetic field are in a molten state. does not stand still but moves. Earth’s magnetic poles can therefore change over time. According to a study published in National Geographic, the liquid iron jet stream under Canada may be the cause of this change. This, in turn, could strengthen Siberia by weakening Canada, one of the two magnetic poles holding the north’s magnetic field.

These not-so-extraordinary aberrations are regularly monitored and the Earth’s magnetic model It is updated every five years. Actually, this model was last updated in 2015, but the update took place in 2019 instead of 2020, because the magnetic field quickly exceeded expectations. The next update is in 2025.

These changes have happened many times throughout history and It is not a life-threatening condition.

The position of the North Magnetic Pole was within Canada’s borders when it was first detected in 1831, but it was about 2300 km in the meantime. It drifted to Siberia. The magnetic north and south poles are known to switch places several times, the last being approx. 780,000 years ago took place. Similar relocations are expected in the future. Scientists underlined that these deviations are not a sign of Judgment Day.

For the sun to rise from the west, the Earth must be turned upside down or the direction of rotation must change.

For something like this to happen, it’s not the Earth’s magnetic poles, but geographical poles must be reversed. So when the Earth turns upside down, East turns to West. The sun would rise in the west even if the earth were to orbit itself, but this too seems scientifically improbable.

The state of being upside down or inverted, possibly due to the impact of massive meteorites or stray planets But even after a very, very long time, such an event does not seem possible.

The Presidency of Religious Affairs responds to this distortion of hadiths as follows:

“It should be a more accurate judgment to accept that the events informing religion, corruption and moral decline in the hadiths are signs leading to the destruction of the individual and society, rather than the signs pointing to the collapse of the cosmic order of the universe.”

Summarized; The sun will not rise in the west because the Earth’s magnetic pole is shifting.
