Greenery in Makkah after rain – In a sudden and unusual event that was visible in detail on satellite pictures, green vegetation suddenly blanketed a number of areas in western Saudi Arabia that are often thought to have a dry desert environment, turning the desert parts into green quarters.

The possible explanation for the recurrence of rainfall is due to the entry of upper depressions at an unusual angle across Egypt and later north and north. In the specifics, multiple parts of Saudi Arabia have have seen precipitation several times since December 2022, and at a nearly continuous pace for unusually long periods compared to previous years. It resulted in recurrent episodes of atmospheric instability in western Saudi Arabia, which coincided with the expansion of the Red Sea depression and the movement of moist air currents in the atmosphere.

Large areas of green plants were released in an unexpected fashion as a result of the extraordinary amount of rainfall, notably in the western portions of Saudi Arabia. The green areas were focused in western Saudi Arabia due to the warm temperature there together with the rains.

Here are some recent pictures of green areas in Makkah and Madinah:

Is Greenery in Makkah after rain a Sign of Qiyamah?

One of the indicators of Judgment Day, according to Our Prophet (Peace and Blessings be upon him), will be the return of rivers and vegetation to the region of Arabia (reported by Muslim in his Saheeh).

Hadith Prophet Muhammad said: The Last Hour will not come before wealth becomes abundant and overflowing, so much so that a man takes Zakat out of his property and cannot find anyone to accept it from him and till the land of Arabia reverts to meadows and rivers.
