I heard that there will be gold coming out of the river the Euphrates river, is this true?

Answer

Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) mentioned that among the signs of Qiyaamat, 'the Euphrates and Tigris will bring up pillars of Gold.' He also advised that people should stay away from that as people will fight for the gold and many people will be killed. (Mishkaat vol.2)

And Allah Taãla Knows Best.
