The tallness of buildings is one of the signs of the Hour

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
From the Holy Makkah, via the program’s mobile line, the brother 'Abd al-Majid asks: Is the heightening of buildings among the signs of the approach of the Hour?

Answer:
Yes, it is reported in the hadith that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) informed us that in the end times, people will build tall structures. This is one of the signs of the Hour, which is certain to come upon us or upon those after us. However, it is obligatory to follow the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of His Messenger, and to follow the community of Muslims and the Imam of the Muslims. This is what is obligatory for us. Yes.

The presenter:
Yes, may Allah bless you.
