And when the Word is fulfilled against them (the unjust), we shall produce from the earth a beast to (face) them: He will speak to them, for that mankind did not believe with assurance in Our Signs. Quran 27:82
In Sahih Muslim, it is reported that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said, "Before the Day of Judgment, a beast will emerge from the earth, which will speak to people and bear witness to their deeds."
In Sunan Ibn Majah, it is reported that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said, "A beast will emerge from the earth, which will speak to people and bear witness to their deeds, until the matter is concluded."
These Hadiths indicate that a creature will emerge from the earth in the end times, which will speak to people and bear witness to their deeds. This is in line with the meaning of the Quranic verse 27:82, which refers to a similar event.
I am NOT a supporter of Hadiths as some folks say. I only said it would be naive to reject every single hadith as these are records collected from multiple sources sayings of the prophet and is subject to all sorts of checks.
However since the verse 27:82 is mentioned in this thread and there are also hadiths (written hundreds of years back) confirming the same. I wonder what goes around in minds of people who reject hadith completely while the same meaning they also deduce in present times from some of the quran verses.
Similar to what another verse talks about:
Chapter 41:20-21
When they reach it, their ears, eyes, and skin will testify against what they used to do
They will ask their skin ˹furiously˺, "Why have you testified against us?" It will say, "We have been made to speak by Allah, Who causes all things to speak. He ˹is the One Who˺ created you the first time, and to Him you were bound to return.
So if God is able to give powers to our organs to testify against us, it is not something of difficulty that He can allow an animal to speak.
On the other hand there are people who interpret the verse 27:82 could mean anything. (diseases, Technology etc).
Or the supporter of 19 so called miracle :
https://19.org/blog/is-the-creature-prophecized-in-2782-computer/Point is every one is free to interpret some of the verses of Quran as they consider it fit and salifying for them to prove their point while only God knows the true meaning.
As for me, I believe God is capable over everything, however at this point I do not have an opinion on which side I would tilt for the subject verse explanation.
Thanks
