Hello Travellers,
I welcome you all to my blog. This article is about Oman, its connection with Islam, its History and Geography, Prophecies, major signs preceding Doomsday, Jinns or Ghosts.
Salalah
Salalah is located in the south of Sultanate of Oman bordering Yemen. Salalah is a well-known tourist spot in the Gulf. Salalah Museum is very good. Prophet Mohamed(PBUH)’s sealed letter is there.
Tomb of Prophet Ayub(PBUH)
At Salalah, you can see the tomb of Prophet Ayub A.S.(Prophet Job in Bible). I advise you to drink the water from the fountain, which has a lot of medical Properties. The water is very cold and sweet. This fountain is mentioned in the Holy Quran, and in the Bible, as Job's fountain.
Tomb of Prophet Imran(PBUH)
You can see the tomb of Prophet Imran A.S. there. This site is important for Muslims, Jews as well as Christians. Jews believe that he is Prophet Moosa A.S.(Moses in Bible)’s father and Christians believe that it is Mariam A.S.(Mary in Bible)’s father. The tomb is very lengthy and is about 70 feet.
Tomb of Prophet Salih and Hud(PBUT)
You can see Prophet Salih A.S. and Prophet Hud A.S.’s tombs at Salalah.
Tomb of Mirbat(A.S.)
I went to a place called Mirbat, which is an old port. It is famous for fishing. This city is named after Mirbat, who is descendent of Prophet Mohamed(PBUH). His tomb is also there.
Tomb of Cheraman Perumal
You can also see the tomb of Cheraman Perumal, the Hindu king who converted to Islam, during Prophet Mohamed(PBUH)’s period. He was the first Indian converted to Islam. He saw the moon split by Prophet Mohamed(PBUH). So he went from India to Saudi Arabia and converted to Islam there. While coming back, he stayed at Salalah and died there.
Start of the World
Before the creation of Adam, Jinns or Ghosts were created at the place called Bahla in Oman. When God wanted to create mankind, he created Adam A.S., at the place called Adam in Oman. Oman is the short form of Oh, Mankind. ”Adn” is the original name of Eden and the City of Aden in Yemen is the "Garden of Eden". When Adam and Eve were thrown out of paradise, they prayed to God and they met at Mt.Arafa in Saudi Arabia. From there, this world started and on the day of Resurrection, all the human beings will be assembled at Mt.Arafa. That is why, it is so important, that during hajj, everybody should be at Mt.Arafa and hence, Arafa day is called Hajj day.
Jinns or Ghosts
Any article about Oman should include Jinns or Ghosts and any reference to Jinns should include Bahla, which is an old city, near Ibri. It is the birthplace of Jinns or Ghosts. You can definitely see ghosts in Bahla and in Nizwa fort. You can see Jinns praying at Hijar mosque in Bahla. Ganapathy has elephant's head and man's body. Likewise, you can see Jinns with human body and donkey legs, there. Ghost nose is like a skull, their eyes are very very yellow and their legs are like donkey legs. People who want adventure in their lives can visit Oman and enjoy a lot. Braveness is essential. You can definitely see or feel about some ghosts roaming.
Doomsday Signals
Prophet Mohamed(PBUH) told us that Doomsday will not happen till the following major signs occur. The major signs are:
- The release of Gog and Magog
- The release of Dajjal or Anti-Christ
- The emergence of Prophet Salih(A.S.)'s Camel
- The blowing of the Trumpet
Gog and Magog Release
You can see Gog and Magog, also known as Yajuj, Majuj there. Oman's historical name is Majan and they refer to Majuj. Yemenis are Yajuj. Majans, the original name of Omanis, had historical links with Chinese. Mongolians are also called Majuj. Christians believe that Gog and Magog are the lost tribes of Jacobites. They can be found in "Jebel Al Qamar" or "Moon Mountain" in Oman.
Dhulqarnain Wall
Dhulqarnain is normally interpreted as “Two Horns” but my interpretation is Dhul means “two”, Qarn means “Mountain” and Ain means “Spring or Blowhole or Gate or Wall” which translates to Wall between two mountains or Spring near two mountains. Based on my interpretation, I have found that Jebel Al Qamar mountains, Salalah, Oman are the ones in between which Dhulqarnain erected the wall to save people from Gog and Magog, also known as Yajuj and Majuj. You can see the mountains filled with Copper and inside with Iron. It is amazing to ride in between the mountains. The Gog and Magog will be released from this place when Doomsday approaches. You can see Jebel Al Qamar mountains while going from Mughsail beach to Yemen, by road.
Blow Holes
At the start of Jebel Al Qamar mountains near Mughsail beach, there is a cave called Marneef Cave, where we can see the spring or blowholes. The Marneef Cave Rock itself looks like a person with a long nose when viewed from blow holes or spring. It might be the tomb of Dhulqarnain. Here, you can see ghosts coming and talking with us. It is a thrilling experience. Marneef cave is a must visit for ghost lovers.
Marneef Cave is almost corroded. Often visitors are scared to stand below the rock because the rock may fall down, due to corrosion. My opinion is that the world will last till the Dhulqarnain rock gets completely eroded and by that time, the wall may be broken by Gog and Magog. Once released, they will start doing atrocities and it is one of the major signs predicted by Prophet Mohamed(PBUH), preceding Doomsday.
Alexander, The Great
Scholars differ in their opinion about “Who is Dhulqarnain ?”. Whether he is Alexander or Cyrus, The Great?. In my opinion, Alexander The Great is Dhulqarnain because Alexander has two horns and he only travelled to the South and Cyrus went only to the North.
End of the World
The Release of Anti-Christ
Dajjal, well known as Anti-Christ, will be called Masih or False Messiah. He is one-eyed and blind in his right eye. He is crooked and tied within the island Called Masirah Island in Oman. Prophet Mohamed(PBUH) clearly told that Dajjal will come from the east. He will be also released from the Masirah island in Oman, signalling the approach of Doomsday.
Emergence of Prophet Salih(PBUH)'s Camel
Prophet Salih(PBUH)’s Camel was killed at a place in Salalah. It will come once again from the same place where it was killed before in Oman, signalling the approach of Doomsday.
Blowing of Trumpet
Sur is a city located towards the North of Oman. Sur in Arabic means Trumpet. It is the place from where the Angel will start blowing the trumpet, signalling Doomsday.
MUSCAT
Muscat is a modern city. Muscat is the capital of Oman. You can enjoy modern life there. Sultan Qaboos Mosque is known for its architecture.
