All of the radio and television reports, as well as online features about the earthquake in China have reminders of the Last Day, Alhamdulillah.
Allah (swt) reminds us in the Quran that the dunya will be destroyed by an earthquake on the Last Day:
"When the earth is shaken with its (final) earthquake.
and when the earth throws out its burdens.
And man will say: "What is the matter with it?"
That Day it will declare its information (about all that happened over it of good or evil).
Because your Lord will inspire it.
That Day mankind will proceed in scattered groups that they may be shown their deeds.
So whosoever does good equal to the weight of an atom (or a small ant) shall see it.
And whosoever does evil equal to the weight of an atom (or of a small ant) shall see it."
- Surat Az-Zalzalah (The Earthquake) CXIX
"Do not invoke other gods besides Allah. There is no (true) god except Him. Everything will perish except His Face (i.e., except Him). To Him belongs the Judgment, and to Him will you be returned."
- Surat Al-Qasas 28:88 (The Narration) XXVIII
"The Horn will be blown. Whoever is in the heavens or on earth will then fall dead, except those whom Allah will spare...and at once they will all be standing and looking around them. "
- Surat Az-Zumar 39:68 (The Groups) XXXIX
"How can I feel secure when the Holder of the Horn has placed the Horn against his lips and has bent his forehead. He listens carefully, awaiting the command to blow so as to blow it."

A reminder to all Muslims. Ameen!

All of these natural disasters in the last couple of years are unsettling. That first picture of the little feet is especially chilling.
Assalam-alaikam Sis Safiyyah
the picture of the feet is heart-breaking, those little shoes remind me of my daughter's shoes.
Subhan'Allah, the reminder is a timely one, even in Our beloved Prophet's time (PBUH) it was said that the last day is near, imagine how near it must be then.
Ameen to Brother al-Hussain Arshad's dua.
