Prophet Muhammadﷺ
Predictions That Came True
Introduction
Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, the final messenger of Islam, was known not only for his teachings but also for his many predictions — many of which came true during his lifetime or after his death. These prophecies, documented in authentic hadiths and supported by historical facts, serve as evidence of his prophethood and insight from divine revelation.
This blog presents a well-researched list of authentic predictions made by the Prophet ﷺ that were fulfilled with precision, backed by references from Hadith collections and Islamic history.
1. The Conquest of Jerusalem (Al-Quds)
📖 Prophecy:
“You will conquer Jerusalem.”
— (Sahih Bukhari, Hadith 2767)
✅ Fulfillment:
This prophecy was made when Muslims were a small group in Medina.
In 637 CE, under the caliphate of Umar ibn al-Khattab, the Muslims conquered Jerusalem without bloodshed.
The keys of the city were handed peacefully to Umar by the Christian patriarch Sophronius.
.
2. The Fall of the Persian Empire
📖 Prophecy:
“The hour will not come until the Romans are the majority of people.”
— (Sahih Muslim, Hadith 2898)
And: “Caesar will perish. There is no Caesar after him.”
— (Sahih Muslim, Hadith 2917)
✅ Fulfillment:
The Sassanid dynasty, the Persian Empire, was predicted to fall by the Prophet.
This occurred under Uthman ibn Affan’s rule in 651 CE, just 19 years after his death.
Muslim forces led by Khalid ibn al-Walid and Saad ibn Abi Waqqas forced the Sassanid Empire to fall.
3. The Spread of Islam Across the World
📖 Prophecy:
“This matter (Islam) will reach as far as the day and night reach.”
— (Musnad Ahmad, Hadith 16957 – Authentic)
✅ Fulfillment:
Today, Islam is the second-largest religion globally, found in every continent and practiced in over 180 countries.
This global spread is exactly what was foretold by the Prophet ﷺ over 1400 years ago.
4. The Rise of Usury (Riba)
📖 Prophecy:
“A time will come when everyone will consume Riba, and if they do not consume it directly, they will still be affected by its dust.”
— (Sunan Abu Dawood, Hadith 3331; Sahih by Al-Albani)
✅ Fulfillment:
Interest-based banking is now an integral part of nearly every economy.
Inflation, global markets, and taxation all have an indirect impact on those who try to avoid it, such as Islamic finance.
5. The Use of Musical Instruments and Entertainment
📖 Prophecy:
“There will be among my Ummah people who will consider as lawful: fornication, silk (for men), alcohol, and musical instruments.”
— (Sahih Bukhari, Hadith 5590).
✅ Fulfillment:
Nowadays, the entertainment industry is a multibillion-dollar industry.
Music, alcohol, and sexual promiscuity have become normalized — in many cases even glamorized — in media and society.
.
6. Construction of Tall Buildings
📖 Prophecy:
“You will see the barefoot, naked, destitute shepherds competing in constructing tall buildings.”
— (Sahih Muslim, Hadith 1 – Hadith of Jibreel)
Fulfillment:
In modern-day Arab Gulf countries, especially the UAE, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia, former desert tribes have become wealthy nations competing in skyscraper construction.
The Burj Khalifa in Dubai, the tallest building in the world, stands as clear evidence.
7. The Fire in the Hijaz Region
📖 Prophecy:
“The Hour will not come until a fire emerges from the land of Hijaz, lighting up the necks of camels in Busra.”
— (Sahih Bukhari, Hadith 7118; Sahih Muslim, Hadith 2902).
Fulfillment:
A massive volcanic eruption occurred in the Hijaz region near Medina in 1256 CE.
Just as the Prophet had predicted, the fire and lava could be seen from more than 500 kilometers away, including Busra in southern Syria.
8. Trustworthiness Will Disappear
📖 Prophecy:
“There will come a time when trust will be taken away from people.”
— (Sahih Bukhari, Hadith 6497).
✅ Fulfillment:
In modern society, corruption, fraud, and betrayal are increasingly common — in politics, business, and even personal relationships.
As anticipated, the value of trust and honesty is declining.
9. The Prevalence of Killing and Chaos (Fitnah)
📖 Prophecy:
“By the One in Whose hand is my soul, the world will not end until the killer does not know why he killed, and the one who was killed does not know why he was killed.”
— (Sahih Muslim, Hadith 2908)
Table of Contents
✅ Fulfillment:
Take a look at the state of numerous contemporary wars, acts of terrorism, and mass shootings.
Insane acts of violence motivated by ideology, power, or vengeance result in the deaths of innocent civilians, frequently for no apparent reason.
10. Widespread Literacy and Pen Usage
📖 Prophecy:
“The Hour will not be established until knowledge will increase and pens will be in abundance.”
— (Musnad Ahmad, Hadith 10415 – Authentic)
✅ Fulfillment:
Literacy rates around the world are at an all-time high right now.
The use of pens, paper, and now digital writing (keyboards, tablets) has become universal.
11. People Will Compete in Building Mosques
📖 Prophecy:
“One of the signs of the Hour is that people will compete with one another in building mosques.”
— (Sunan Ibn Majah, Hadith 739 – Sahih by Al-Albani).
Fulfillment:
Communities all over the world strive to construct mosques that are larger and more beautiful, frequently out of pride.
This is visible in both the Muslim-majority world and in Western countries.
12. The Death of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ
📖 Prophecy:
“Indeed, you (O Muhammad) will die, and indeed, they will die.”
— (Quran 39:30)
And: “Allah has given a servant the choice between this life and what is with Him. The servant chose what is with Allah.”
— (Sahih Bukhari, Hadith 4435)
Fulfillment:
The Prophet ﷺ subtly predicted his own death just days before it occurred.
Abu Bakr understood this and later confirmed his passing with Quranic verses.
Conclusion: Signs of Truth in Prophecy
True hadith and historical evidence back up each of the aforementioned Prophet Muhammadﷺ prophecies. What makes these predictions so powerful is not just that they came true — but that many were made during times when such events seemed impossible or unimaginable.
These fulfilled predictions offer a rational, fact-based reason to believe in his prophethood, especially for those who are exploring Islam with an open mind and heart.
Final Thoughts by Author – Er. Changez Khan
I find the fulfilled prophecies of Prophet Muhammadﷺ to be not only faith-strengthening but also intellectually compelling as a researcher and civil engineer who is passionate about discovering truths. These are not just religious sayings; rather, they are historical events that have taken place over many centuries.
At WorldwideFacts.blog, I aim to bring you content rooted in evidence, not emotion, and this list of predictions is one of the most striking proofs of divine knowledge in Islam.
May this post inspire reflection, learning, and further research into the miraculous life of the Prophet Muhammadﷺ of Islam.
