Bismillah
Walhamdulillah Was Salaatu Was Salaam 'ala Rasulillah. As-Salaam Alaikum
Wa-Rahmatullahi Wa-Barakatuhu.
Praise
be to Allaah; we seek His help and His forgiveness. We seek refuge with Allaah
from the evil of our own souls and from our bad deeds. Whomsoever Allaah guides
will never be led astray, and whomsoever Allaah leaves astray, no one can
guide. I bear witness that there is no god but Allaah, and I bear witness that
Muhammad (Sallalhu alaihi Wasalam) is His slave and Messenger.

BEGINNING OF DAY OF JUDGMENT
Resurrection is Great - We hear news about Qiyamat but imagine
that it is an ordinary matter, though we give much importance to this world,
the same world which the Lord Creator of the Universe has termed a 'plaything':
“The life of this world is only idle sport and play,“ (Holy Quran Chapter
47:36). But about Qiyamat, which is an ordinary thing in our (mistaken) view
has been given much importance by God and He has called its news “The Great
Event”: “Of what do they ask one another? About the great event, “(Holy Quran
Chapter 78:1). Doubtlessly Qiyamat is
very great. It will be the Day when all the first and last (earlier and
latter) human beings will be made to assemble. Such a huge gathering will be
such that in it, everyone will be worrying about his or her result
(consequences of deeds before death). All will be weeping and wailing save a
few about whom we shall talk later on.
How
will they raise their heads FROM THE Graves? - One day Jibraeel came to the
Holy Prophet (Sallalahu Alaihi Wa salaam) and asked, “Would you like to observe
the condition of people on the Day of Gathering?” “Yes,” the Prophet replied.
Jibraeel, the trustworthy angel, took the Holy Prophet to the graveyard of Baqi
(Medina). He kicked a grave and said, “Get up at the order of your Lord.” The
grave split at once and a man with radiant face raised his head from the grave
saying, “(All) praise is due to Allah, Who has made good to us His promise,
“(Holy Quran Chapter 39:74). Thereafter, he kicked another grave and said,
“Rise up at the command of your Lord.” At once, another man with a very ugly
and frightened face came out of this grave and said, O woe to us! Jibraeel
said, “The faithful and the unbelievers will rise up from their graves in this condition.”
Hopes about Day of Judgment, Qiyamaa? - “Abasing (one party), exalting (the
other), “(Holy Quran Chapter 56:3). On the Day of Resurrection, those who were
low and weak materially but had the riches of God's fear will become masters
and great. Contrary to this, those who were materially great and powerful in
the world but had no piety will become dishonoured and degraded. 'Degrader' and
'Upgrader' are two Qur’anic names of the Resurrection Day.
All
secrets will become known - Another thing, which will happen on the Day of
Judgment is all those things, which were kept hidden in hearts, will become
open and manifest. In this world there are veils on everyone's beliefs and
deeds. But in Qiyamat both the inner and outer state will become same, fully
apparent.
The
dress of the Day of Judgment will be piety - “And clothing that guards (against
evil), that is the best. “(Holy Quran Chapter 7:25).
The
sinners will be recognized - “The guilty shall be recognized by their marks, so
they shall be seized by the forelocks and the feet. “(Holy Quran Chapter
55:41). The first stage in the Gathering field will be astonishment which is
mentioned a number of times in the Holy Qur’an: “Hastening forward, their heads
upraised, their eyes not reverting to them and their hearts vacant. “(Holy
Quran Chapter 14:43).
Day
of fifty thousand years’ duration -“The measure of which is fifty thousand
years. “(Holy Quran Chapter 70:5). “The measure of which is a thousand years of
what you count. “(Holy Quran Chapter 32:5).
The station of fear in Qiyama - “And the voices shall be low before the
Beneficent God so that you shall not hear aught but a soft sound. “(Holy Quran
Chapter 20:108)”. And warn them of the day that draws near, when hearts shall
rise up to the throats, “(Holy Quran Chapter 40:18).
One
station is that of talks and conversation, of questions and answers between
people: “And some of them shall advance towards others, questioning each other.
“(Holy Quran Chapter 37:27). They will ask one another about their good and bad
deeds.
Flying away from another like locusts- One of the stations will be that of
fleeing and running away wherein all will run to avoid one another. Father will
run away from son, wife and husband from one another, brother from brother.
Everyone would try to avoid one another. All will try to hide their faces. The
Holy Qur’an has likened it with scattered moths: “The day on which men shall be
as scattered moths, “(Holy Quran Chapter 101:3). In Surah Qamar God says:
“Their eyes cast down, going forth from their graves as if they were scattered
locusts, “(Holy Quran Chapter 54:7).Fear will show out of the eyes of the
unbelievers. When they will come out of their grave, they will scatter like
locusts in the field of Mahshar. You must have observed that when an army of
locusts arrives how everyone of them flies in different direction, some upward,
some downward, some in the right, some in the left. They remain scattered in an
unorganized manner. Husband and wife, father and son etc. will also, in the
field of Mahshar, on the Day of Resurrection, remain scattered likewise for
avoiding one another. But this fleeing of theirs will be useless.
Their fleeing will be of no use - These will be the Divine armies, which
will encircle and the Grand Field of Gathering (Mahshar): “O assembly of the
jinn and the men! If you are able to pass through the regions of the heavens
and the earth, then pass through; you cannot pass through but with authority.
“(Holy Quran Chapter 55:33).
On
that Day men will ask, “Where should I run away?” There is no place or room for
escaping except towards the Lord. This also is only for one who had some
connection with God. Otherwise, for others, there is no escape.
They will beg even for a single good on the
Day of Judgment
- One more station will be that of asking and begging. Everyone will request
his acquaintance to offer one of his goods (reward fetching deeds) but no one
will oblige because he himself is also in dire need of it.
A
father will say to his son, “How many hardships I suffered for you sake in the
world. How much trouble I took for training you? Now, you please give me one of
your good deeds. ”The son will reply, “At this time, I myself am in dire need
of the good and I am more needy than you.” Similarly a brother will tell his
brother. But none would be able to help the other. All would be in terrible
anxiety and will not care for others.
Record of deeds - Whether they use paper and ink or have any
other way. Even the slightest step that you take is being noted down by the
angels. They record even the intention of doing a good deed. Of course no evil
(sin) is noted until it is committed. ‘’Then shall anyone who has done an
atom's weight of good, see it! And anyone who has done an atom's weight of
evil, shall see it. (Holy Quran Chapter 99:7-8).’’
The
fragrance of good intentions alerts the angels - “Whoever brings a good deed,
he shall have ten like it, and whoever brings an evil deed, he shall be
recompensed only with the like of it, and they shall not be dealt with
unjustly. “(Holy Quran Chapter 6:160). “And everything they have done is in the
writings. And everything small and great is written down. “(Holy Quran Chapter
54:52-53).
Wisdom behind record of deeds - “Nay! Most surely the record of the
righteous shall be in the Iliyin. “(83:18)”. Nay! most surely the record of the
wicked is in the Sijjin. “(Holy Quran Chapter 83:7).
Come!
Look at my mark sheet - “Then as for him who is given his book in his right
hand, he will say: Lo! Read my book: “(Holy Quran Chapter 19:69). Look at this
testimonial about the acceptance of my prayers, my fasting and my good deeds! I
was always worrying about the accounting of this Day. “Surely I knew that I
shall meet my account. So he shall be in a life of pleasure, “(Holy Quran
Chapter 69:20-21).
I
wish they had not given my record of deeds - And as for him who is given his
book in his left hand he shall say: O would that my book had never been given
me: “And I had not known what my account was: O would that it had made an end
(of me): My wealth has availed me nothing: My authority is gone away from me.
“(Holy Quran Chapter 69:25-29). He will say so only because he will observe
that his record has nothing but shame. He will wish for death after which there
would be no death again and everything would end permanently. Then he will
wail, “Neither my money help me nor my land and my power all have left me
lurking in pain and shame.”
How record will be given from behind - There also will be some people in the
field of Mahshar on the Day of Judgment, who will be handed over their records
of deeds from behind: “And as to him who is given his book behind his back, He
shall call for perdition, And enter into burning fire. “(Holy Quran Chapter
84:10-12). This (giving of record from behind) can be in two ways: First, both
of his hands may be tied to his back and his head will be turned so that he can
read his record. Another way can be that his left hand will pierce in his chest
forcing it to come out of his back and then his face will be turned and he will
be ordered to read his record: “Read your book; your own self is sufficient as
a reckoner against you this day. “(Holy Quran Chapter 17:14). He will himself
read back-biting, false allegations, lies, shameless utterances and actions,
assaults on others' honour and all other evils committed by him in his worldly
life. Likewise, he will also read the offences done by his physical organs. He
would start wailing, “This book is such that it has not left even any big or
small deed of mine without writing it down.” Whatever he has done in the world
will be now before his own eyes. “And the Book shall be placed, then you will
see the guilty fearing from what is in it, and they will say: Ah! woe to us!
what a book is this! it does not omit a small one nor a great one, but numbers
them (all); and what they had done they shall find present (there); and your
Lord does not deal unjustly with anyone. “(Holy Quran Chapter 18:49).
Severe pain after reading the record - Some people will be such that reading
their records of deeds all the joints of their bodies will disintegrate. Blood
and dirt will begin to flow from their eyes. It is mentioned in a tradition of
the Holy Prophet that, at that time, a voice will come, “Is there in this
record even a single deed which you had not done?” He will reply, “No, O My
Lord! Everything recorded in this sheet is true.” Then he will bow his head in
shame.
On
the Day of Judgment, man will, in a split second, remember all of his lifelong
deeds and also see them recorded in a scroll or sheet. It would be a very
strange realm. Everyone's record will appear clear before everyone's eyes. Some
people will be able to become free of accounting within seconds. They will be
the righteous people.
But
some would remain suspended in their accounting for a thousand years, not
because their record will be very lengthy but what will be aimed at will be the
pain and hardship due for them. Some people's accounting will take very little
time, just as for milking a sheep. The time taken for some people's account
will be, so to say, from noon to Asr afternoon. Some will remain suspended in
accounting for forty years, a thousand years and even up to fifty thousand
years in some cases.
IS THE DAY OF RECKONING ONE
DAY?
Shaykh
Muhammad ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy on him) said:
The Day
of Reckoning is one day, but it is a day whose length is equal to fifty
thousand years, as Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
“A questioner asked concerning a torment about to befall Upon the
disbelievers, which none can avert, From Allaah, the Lord of the ways of
ascent.
The angels and the Rooh [Jibreel (Gabriel)] ascend to Him in a Day the
measure whereof is fifty thousand years” [Holy Quran Chapter al-Ma’aarij
70:1-4]
i.e.,
this torment will befall the disbelievers on a day the length of which is equal
to fifty thousand years.
In Saheeh
Muslim it is narrated from the hadeeth of Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be
pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)
said: “There is no owner of gold or silver who does not pay what is due on it
(i.e., zakaah) but when the Day of Resurrection comes, plates of fire will be
prepared for him and with them will be branded his forehead, his flanks and his
back, and every time they cool down they will be reheated, on a Day the length
of which is equal to fifty thousand years, until judgement is passed among the
people.”
This long
Day is the day that will be hard for the kaafirs as Allaah says (interpretation
of the meaning):
“and it will be a hard Day for the disbelievers” [Holy Quran Chapter al-Furqaan
25:26]
“Truly, that Day will be a Hard Day — Far from easy for the disbelievers”
[Holy Quran Chapter al-Muddaththir 74:9-10]
What may
be understood from these two verses is that it will be easy for the believer,
and that is indeed the case. For this long Day with its horrors and serious
matters will be made easy by Allaah for the believer, but it will be hard for
the kaafir. I ask Allaah to make me and my Muslim brothers/sisters among
those for whom Allaah will make the Day of Resurrection easy.
But
thinking too deeply about such matters of the unseen comes under the heading of
extremism concerning which the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon
him) said: “Those who go to extremes are doomed, those who go to extremes are
doomed, those who go to extremes are doomed.”
Our duty
with regard to the matters of the unseen is to submit and to accept them
according to their apparent meaning, without discussing them in depth or trying
to compare them to worldly things. For the matters of the Hereafter are not
like the matters of this world; even if the meanings may have something in
common, there is still a great difference between them. I will give the example
of what Allaah has told us about there being palm-trees, pomegranates, fruits,
the flesh of birds, honey, water, milk, wine etc in Paradise, but He also tells
us (interpretation of the meaning):
“No person knows what is kept hidden for them of joy as a reward for what
they used to do”
[Holy Quran Chapter al-Sajdah 32:17]
And
Allaah says in a hadeeth qudsi: “I have prepared for My righteous slaves that
which no eye has seen, no ear has heard nor has it entered the heart of
man.”
There are
things in this world that bear the same names as these blessings of Paradise
mentioned here but the fact that they have a name in common does not mean that
the wine of Paradise is like the wine of this world, or that the fruits of
Paradise are like the fruits of this world, and so on.
Although
they may share a name and a common meaning, all the things of the unseen that
share a meaning with things that are seen in this world are not like them in
reality, so we should pay attention to this principle and accept the matters of
the unseen according to the apparent meanings, and not try to do any more than
that.
Hence
when Imam Maalik (may Allaah have mercy on him) was asked about the words of
Allaah (interpretation of the meaning):
“The Most Gracious (Allaah) rose over (Istawa) the (Mighty) Throne (in a
manner that suits His Majesty)”[ Holy Quran Chapter Ta-Ha 20:5] –
How did
He rise over it? He lowered his head and started to sweat, because of the
seriousness of this question. Then he raised his head and spoke his famous
words that became the standard comment regarding all the attributes that Allaah
has ascribed to Himself: “(The concept of) rising is not unknown, but how it
happened (in the case of Allaah) cannot be comprehended. Believing in it is
obligatory and asking about it is bid’ah (an innovation).”
Probing
deeply into such matters is bid’ah because the Sahaabah (may Allaah be pleased
with them) who were more keen than us to seek knowledge and goodness did not
ask the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) such questions, and
they are sufficient as an example. What I have said now about the Last Day may
also be applied to the attributes of Allaah which He has ascribed to Himself of
knowledge, power, hearing, seeing, speaking etc. The way in which these words
apply to Allaah is nothing like the way in which the same words apply to man.
Each attribute suits the one to whom it is ascribed. Just as there is none like
unto Allaah in His Essence, there is none like unto Him in His
attributes.
In
conclusion: the Last Day is one Day, and it will be hard for the kaafirs and
easy for the believers. What has been narrated about the various kinds of
reward and punishment is a matter which cannot be fully understood in this
world, even though the basic meanings may be known to us in this world. Islam Q&A,
34719, Majmoo’ Fataawa Ibn ‘Uthaymeen, 2/40.
SAVINGS ACCOUNT OF INDIVIDUALS
The
true savings account is with Allah - All of us say that God is Bountiful and
Generous (Kareem). Quite true. But if we really consider Him bountiful then why
do we not regard Him so in the worldly (material) matters. Why do we make so
much strenuous efforts in the worldly affairs, especially in the matter of
sustenance? This shows that what we say is not based on real conviction. We are
not truly convinced that God is Bountiful. If you really and factually want to
make arrangements for your future (after death) then you should open your
'Saving Accounts' with God. These prayers and charity are your savings, which
are being credited to your account with God and the Generous God protects it in
a better way and also gives better reward for it on the Day of Resurrection and
in this world also.
“Whatever of good you
send on beforehand for yourselves, you will find it with Allah; that is best
and greatest in reward; “(Holy Quran Chapter 73:20). The Lord of the Universe
has, in the Holy Qur’an, told His Prophet (SAW): Warn My servants about the
events of future (Hereafter). Now all of us know very well that all of us have
to face a Day, which will be full of hardships, dangers and anxieties.
ALLAH AND THE LIMITS OF HUMAN IMAGINATION
The
Holy Quran, mentions the concept of time in many places, in different contexts,
and from various perspectives. In chapter 70, verse 4: "(Whereby) the
angels and the Spirit ascend unto Him in a Day whereof the span is fifty
thousand years." In chapter 32, verse 5: "He directeth the ordinance
from the heaven unto the earth; then it ascendeth unto Him in a Day, whereof
the measure is a thousand years of that ye reckon.", and in chapter 22,
verse 47: "And they will bid thee hasten on the Doom, and Allah faileth
not His promise, but lo! a Day with Allah is as a thousand years of what ye
reckon." Not only that, but there are whole chapters that are named after
times: chapter 62 "Friday", chapter 89 "The Dawn", chapter
92 "The Night", chapter 93 "The Morn", chapter 103
"The Declining Day", and chapter 113 "The Daybreak".
In
this brief we shall mention concept of time in the Holy Quran with reference to
two verses with Tafseer commentary. Holy Quran Chapter 32.5 and (Hoy Quran
Chapter 70. 4).
سُوۡرَةُ السَّجدَة
يُدَبِّرُ ٱلۡأَمۡرَ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ
إِلَى ٱلۡأَرۡضِ ثُمَّ يَعۡرُجُ إِلَيۡهِ فِى يَوۡمٍ۬ كَانَ مِقۡدَارُهُ ۥۤ أَلۡفَ
سَنَةٍ۬ مِّمَّا تَعُدُّونَ (٥)
Surah
As-Sajda
He
directeth the ordinance from the heaven unto the earth; then it ascendeth unto
Him in a Day, whereof the measure is a thousand years of that ye reckon. (Hoy
Quran Chapter 32.5)
Tafseer
- Hoy Quran Chapter 32.5
He
directs the command from the heaven to the earth, for the duration of this
world, then it ascends, then the command and the direction [thereof] returns,
to Him in a day whose measure is a thousand years by your reckoning, in this
world. In sūrat sa’ala, [An asker] asked [the measure is said to be]: ‘fifty
thousand years’ [Hoy Quran Chapter 70:4] — and this [day] is the Day of
Resurrection, [reckoned so] because of the severity of its terrors for the
disbeliever. As for the believer, however, for him it will be easier than
performing any one of [his] obligatory prayers in this world — as is stated in
hadīth.
سُوۡرَةُ المعَارج
تَعۡرُجُ ٱلۡمَلَـٰٓٮِٕڪَةُ وَٱلرُّوحُ إِلَيۡهِ
فِى يَوۡمٍ۬ كَانَ مِقۡدَارُهُ ۥ خَمۡسِينَ أَلۡفَ سَنَةٍ۬ (٤)
Surah
Al-Maarij
(Whereby)
the angels and the Spirit ascend unto Him in a Day whereof the span is fifty
thousand years. (Hoy Quran Chapter 70. 4).
Tafseer
[70:4]
To
Him, to the place in the heaven to which His command descends, ascend (read
[feminine person] ta‘ruju or [masculine person] ya‘ruju) the angels and the
Spirit, Gabriel, in a day (fī yawmin is semantically connected to an omitted
clause, that is to say, ‘[in a day] in which the chastisement befalls them’, on
the Day of Resurrection) whose span is fifty thousand years, from the
perspective of the disbeliever, on account of the calamities he will encounter
in it — but as for the believer, it [the mentioned day] will be easier for him
than an obligatory prayer which he performs in this world, as stated in hadīth.
THE SHADE OF THE ^ARSH FOR SEVEN PERSONS
Praise
and thanks are due to Allah, and may Allah raise the rank of our master the
prophet Muhammad and protect his nation from that which he fears for it.
Abu
Hurayra narrated that the Prophet ‘sall-Allahu ta’ala ‘alaihi wa sallam’ said,
“On the Day of Judgement Allah will give the shade of the ^Arsh (Throne), to
seven, when there will be no shade but the shade of the ^Arsh. These seven
persons are; a just ruler, a youth who has been brought up in the worship of
Allah, a man whose heart is attached to the mosques, two persons who love each
other only for Allah’s sake and they meet and depart in Allah’s cause only, a
man who refuses the call of a charming woman of noble birth for unlawful
intercourse with her and says: I am fearful of Allah, a man who gives
charitable gifts so secretly that his left hand does not know what his right
hand has given, and a person who praises (remembers) Allah in seclusion
(privacy) and his eyes are then flooded with tears.”
These
seven persons and others are shaded by the shade of the ^Arsh when there will
be no shade except the shade of the ^Arsh. So they are safe from the harm of
the heat of the sun.
1.
Among them is the just ruler, like Hadrat Abu Bakr, Hadrat ^Umar, Hadrat
^Uthman, Hadrat ^Aliyy and Hadrat ^Umar Ibn ^Abdil-^Aziz who was from the
descendents of Hadrat ^Umar Ibnul-Khattab may Allah be pleased with them. ^Umar
Ibn ^Abdil-^Aziz is the one who stopped Bani Umayya from swearing at Imam
^Aliyy and wrongly mentioning bad things about him while giving their speeches.
When he became a ruler he wrote to his assistants the following: If your power
motivated you to wrong people then remember the power of Allah over you.
2.
The second is a youth who has been brought up in the worship of Allah i.e.
worships Allah sincerely from childhood. He acquired the knowledge about
religion, fulfilled the obligations and avoided the sins.
3.
The third is a man whose heart is attached to the mosques i.e. to pray the
compulsory prayers in the mosque in (Jama^a).
4.
The fourth are two persons who love each other only for Allah’s sake and they
meet and depart in Allah’s cause only. So loving each other for the sake of
Allahis among the reasons that lead you to be shaded by the shade of the ^Arsh
on the Day of Judgement. To have the pure love to each other means to order one
another to do good deeds, and to forbid one another from committing evil.
5.
The fifth is a man who refuses the call of a charming woman of noble birth for
unlawful intercourse with her, and says: I am fearful of Allah. It has been
related that a righteous Muslim’s supplication was always fulfilled. When asked
about the mystery of this endowment he replied: It was a year of drought when a
very beautiful lady came into my house and asked me for something to eat. I
said to her: I will give you the food you need, after you give me yourself
(i.e. to allow him to have the unlawful intercourse with her). She said: It
would be better to me to die from hunger than disobeying my Lord, and went away
crying. Then she came after few days and she was starving to death, and asked
me for food. I said to her: I won’t give you anything unless you give me
yourself. She replied: It would be better to me to die from hunger than
disobeying my Lord, and went away crying. I realized that she wasn’t bearing
the starvation, so I followed her and heard her reciting some verses from the
Qur’an and praising Allah. This strengthened the faith in my heart and the love
to do good deeds, and I repented to Allah. Then I called for her saying: come
and take what you want for the sake of Allah. She took the food then raised her
hands to the sky the direction of supplication and said: O Allah as you guided
and enlightened his heart, make his supplication always fulfilled.
6.
The sixth is a man who gives charitable gifts so secretly that his left hand
does not know what his right hand has given i.e. nobody knows how much he has
given in charity because he is not doing that in order to be praised by people
but rather he is doing that only in sincerity to Allah subhanahu wa ta^ala.
7.
The last mentioned in this hadith is a person who praises Allah in seclusion
and his eyes are then flooded with tears. Such eyes are protected from being
burnt in Hellfire on the Day of Judgement.
We
ask Allah to make us among those who follow the guidance of the Prophet
Muhammad ‘sall-Allahu ta’ala ‘alaihi wa sallam’ and make our end, on the state
of piety. Ameen
