The signs

According to Zoroastrian philosophies redacted in the Zand-i Vohuman Yasht

"[at the] end of thy tenth hundredth winter...the sun is more unseen and more spotted; the year, month, and day are shorter; and the earth is more barren; and the crop will not yield the seed; and men ... become more deceitful and more given to vile practices. They have no gratitude"

 "Honorable wealth will all proceed to those of perverted faith...and a dark cloud makes the whole sky night..and [it will rain] more noxious creatures than winter.

Chronology

Saoshyant, the Man of Peace, comes to battle the forces of evil. A ressurection would then occur, and those loyal to righteousness would live in peace for eternity while evil would be condemned in molten metal. The righteous would "wade through the metal as if warm milk" while the evil are scolded.

At the end of the Battle between the righteous and wicked, a Final Judgement of all souls would commence. Sinners would be punished for about 3 days, then be forgiven. The world would reach perfection as poverty, old age, disease, thirst, hunger and death would be halted. Zoroastrian concepts parallel greatly with those of Jewish and Christian prophecies.
