    There isn’t a widely recognized person called “Sabian” The term “Sabian” historically referred to various pre-Islamic religious and ethnic groups in the Middle East, but it’s not associated with a contemporary organized religion. Today, “Sabian” can sometimes be used to describe followers of certain eclectic or syncretic belief systems, but it’s not a well-defined or mainstream religious category.

    Bitcoin or any other digital currency is purely a virtual and imaginary currency, lacking the fundamental attributes and conditions of real currency. Currently, no government has officially accepted responsibility for it. Various religious authorities and scholars worldwide, including Darul Uloom Deoband, have issued fatwas declaring it as illegitimate.

    Bitcoin or any digital currency, in essence, is nothing more than a fictional currency, devoid of the essential characteristics of real currency. The online trading of Bitcoin or digital currency under the guise of buying and selling is merely a deception, as it lacks actual substance, and there are no legal conditions for its transactions. In reality, it is akin to forex trading and takes the form of usury and gambling.

    However, in my opinion, if the government were to grant permission, there may be a possibility of engaging in spot trades.

    The time for Suhur, the pre-dawn meal before fasting during Ramadan, ends at a specific Islamic time known as “Fajr” or “Subh Sadiq.” Fajr begins with the onset of true dawn, which is the time when the first light appears on the horizon vertically. This marks the beginning of the daily fast, and Suhur should be completed before this time. The exact timing of Fajr can vary based on your location and the method of calculation used. It is recommended to consult a local Islamic authority, mosque, or an Islamic prayer time app or website for accurate and specific Suhur and Fajr times in your area during Ramadan, as these times can change depending on your geographical location and the time of year. It’s essential to finish your Suhur meal a few minutes before the Fajr time to ensure that you have observed the fast correctly. Additionally, some Islamic communities follow the practice of the “Adhan” or call to prayer for Fajr, which is another indicator that Suhur’s time has ended.

    The signs of the Day of Judgment are numerous and are mentioned in various Hadiths. In this context, we will briefly discuss them without detailing each sign, as there isn’t enough space to do so. However, if someone wishes to study this topic in detail, we can guide them to specific and reputable books, such as “Al-Qiyamah As-Sughra” by Sheikh Umar Suleiman Ashqar or “Ashrat As-Sa’ah” by Sheikh Yusuf Wabil.

    Some of the minor signs of the Day of Judgment include:

    The emergence of a golden mountain from the Euphrates River.
    People and animals speaking to one another.
    An increase in the number of Romans (Byzantines) and their conflict with the Muslims.
    The conquest of Constantinople (Istanbul).
    Major signs of the Day of Judgment, as mentioned in a Hadith narrated by Hazrat Hudhaifah ibn Al-Yaman (may Allah be pleased with him), include:

    The appearance of the false messiah, known as Dajjal.
    The return of Jesus (peace be upon him).
    The emergence of the tribe of Ya’juj and Ma’juj (Gog and Magog).

    A great fire that will gather people to the place of assembly.
    These are some of the signs of the Day of Judgment, and they hold significant importance in Islamic eschatology.
