abstract: The apocalypse is an extraordinary event as a sign of the end of the world. This event
has been prophesied by the world's major religions, including Islam and Christianity.
Moreover, in the teachings of the two religions, the end-time event is something that
must be believed. This event attracts the attention of the authors of literary works.
The poem "The Four Hourseman" by Gary R. Ferris is a literary work that describes
the apocalypse event. This study views the poem from the perspectives of
Christianity and Islam by using the Literary Criticism, Mimetic Approach, with a
qualitative method. The results from this study are that the Christian and Islamic
perspectiveon the four horsemen in the poem "The Four Horseman" by Gary R. Ferris
refers to the events of apocalypse; the white horse as a sign of the emergence of the
Antichrist or Dajjal in the Islamic perspective, the red horse as a symbol of the
bloodshed in the war of the end time, the black horse as a sign of great famine and the
pale horse (gray) as a symbol of mass death. The last is the descent of a savior which
is symbolized as the true white horseman. Based on the Christian perspective, the
savior is the Lord Jesus Christ, while based on the Islamic perspective, he is Prophet
Isa.
