DESCRIPTION OF THE DAY OF JUDGMENT

4) أَلَا يَظُنُّ أُولَـٰئِكَ أَنَّهُم مَّبْعُوثُونَ
[Do they not think that they will be resurrected (for reckoning),]

5) لِيَوْمٍ عَظِيمٍ
[On a Great Day?]

6) يَوْمَ يَقُومُ النَّاسُ لِرَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ
[The Day when (all) mankind will stand before the Lord of the 'Alamîn (mankind, jinn and all that exists).]

Describing the horror of the Day of Judgment, Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said:

“On the Day of Judgment, the sun will draw near the servants (i.e. men) until it is a mile or two away from them. Then the sun will burn them, and they will be submersed in sweat based upon the amount of their deeds. From among them there will be those whose sweat will come up to their two heels. From among them there will be those whose sweat will come up to their two knees. From among them there will be those whose sweat will come up to their groins. From among them there will be those who will be bridled in sweat up to their necks.”
[Narrated by Muslim and At-Tirmidhi]

The Prophet used to seek refuge with Allah from the hardship of standing on the Day of Judgment. ‘Aa’ishah, the wife of the Prophet said:

“The Messenger of Allah used to begin his late night prayer (i.e. Tahajjud) by declaring Allah’s greatness ten times (by saying “Allahu Akbar”), praising Allah ten times (by saying “Alhamdulillah”), glorifying Allah ten times (by saying “Subhanallah”), and seeking Allah’s forgiveness ten times (by saying “Astagfirullah”). Then he would say, “O Allah! Forgive me, guide me, provide for me, and protect me.” Then he would seek refuge from the hardship of the standing on the Day of Judgment.”
[Narrated by Abu Dawood, An-Nasai’i and Ibn Majah]
