Beast of the Earth
The Beast of the Earth (Arabic: دابّة من الأرض, romanized: Dābbah min al-Arḍ, as mentioned in the Quran), also called “The
Dabbah” is a creature mentioned in Surah An-Naml: Ayat 82 of the Quran and associated with the day of judgment. For this reason, the Beast of the Earth is often mentioned in eschatological writings as a sign of Judgement Day close to the event of the sun rising in the west. The Quran does not offer details about the nature of the Beast of the Earth, but various interpretations have linked it to monsters from Turkic mythology.
