At least according to AI it is:

AI Overview

There is no factual basis for a rapture on September 23, 2025; the date is based on online rumors, particularly on TikTok and YouTube, linked to the Jewish Feast of Trumpets (Rosh Hashanah), dreams and prophecies from individuals like South African pastor Joshua Mhlakela, and interpretations of current events and astronomical phenomena, despite the biblical teaching that the timing of the Lord's return is unknown.

Origin of the Prediction

Viral Social Media Claims:
The prediction for September 23, 2025, has spread rapidly on platforms like TikTok and YouTube.

Dreams and Prophecies:
South African pastor Joshua Mhlakela claimed to have received a dream from Jesus stating the rapture would occur on September 23 or 24, 2025.

Feast of Trumpets:
The date aligns with the Jewish Feast of Trumpets (Rosh Hashanah), a festival where a ram's horn (shofar) is blown. Some connect the trumpet blast in biblical passages about the Lord's return with this Jewish holiday.
