Anything before the big bang and the point of singularity can not quite franky be explained. Because the mathematics of general relativity break down, and obviously you can not do an experiment, but from what we do know about the big bang and singularity points there are some very credible ideas. For one since space-time started at big bang then its logical to view time at a stand still before the big bang. All the laws of thermodynamics and special relativity do not exist because time as a whole does not exist in essence nothing is moving not even the smallest subatomic particle, but also there never was anything to move to begin with. To conclude imagine the area before the big bang to be an infinite abyss of darkness.
