 The Holy
Qur'an
And
What Will Explain To Thee What The Day Of Judgement Is?
When
the Sky is cleft asunder; when the Stars are scattered;
When
the Oceans are suffered to burst forth;
When the graves are turned upside
down -
(Then)
shall each soul know what it had sent forward,
And (what it hath) kept
back,
O
man! What has seduced thee from Thy Lord Most Beneficent? -
Him
who created thee, fashioned thee in due proportion,
And given thee a just
bias;
In
whatever Form He wills, does He put thee together.
But
verily over you (are appointed angels) -
Kind and honourable - writing
down (your deeds):
They
know (and understand) all that ye do.
As for the righteous, they will be
in Bliss; and the wicked -
They will be in the Fire,
Which
they will enter on the Day of Judgement,(6008)
And they will
not be able to keep away thereform.
And
what will explain to thee what the Day of Judgement is?
Again, what will
explain to thee what the Day of Judgement is?
(6009)
(It
will be) the Day when no soul shall have power, (to do) aught for another:
(6010)
For
the Command, that Day, will be (wholly) with Allah.
surah
82:1-15 Al Infitar (The Cleaving Asunder)
"6008.
I understand this relative clause to govern "the Fire", i.e.,
the Punishment. It will be postponed as long a possible, to give the
sinner every chance of repentance and amendment. But once the period of
probation is past, it will be irrevocable.
6009.
We can speak of Rewards and Punishments, the Fruits of Actions, the
Resurrection and the Tribunal, the Restoration of True Values, the
Elimination of all Wrong, and a hundred other phrases. They might serve to
introduce our minds vaguely to a new World, of which they cannot possibly
form any adequate conception under present conditions. The question is
repeated in verses 17-18 to emphasise this difficulty, and a simple answer
is suggested, as explained in the next note.
6010.
The answer is suggested by a negative proposition: 'No soul shall have the
power to do aught for another.' This is full of meaning. Personal
responsibility will be fully enforced. In this world we all depend on one
another proximately, though our ultimate dependence is always on Allah,
now and forever. But here a father helps a son forward; husband and wife
influence each other's destinies; human laws and institutions may hold
large masses of mankind under their grip; falsehood and evil seem to
flourish for a time, because a certain amount of limited free will has
been granted to man. This period will be over then. The good and the pure
will have been separated from the evil and the rebellious; the latter will
have been rendered inert, and the former will have been so perfected that
their wills will be in complete consonance with Allah's Universal Will.
The Command, thenceforward, will be wholly with Allah."
Abdullah
Yusuf Ali,
The Holy Qur'an
(Abdullah
Yusuf Ali, The Holy Qur'an, Amana Corporation, 1989.)
There are two
distinct time frames here, that is, the present Bliss of Qiyamah and the
future Punishment by the Fire which the present Unbelievers will only
enter at the end of the Day of Judgment. Only when the Grace period of
Qiyamah ends will the universal Day of Judgment, the Second Coming take
place. This is yet far away in the future. The present True Believers (Al-Mu'minun)
will by then have been judged and those successful entered His
Kingdom a long time ago.
The
Islamic scholars dismembered their version of Doomsday into two with this interpretation:
"I
understand this relative clause to govern 'the Fire', i.e., the
Punishment. It will be postponed as long a possible, to give the sinner
every chance of repentance and amendment. But once the period of probation
is past, it will be irrevocable."
Unless
this refers to two different periods it makes no sense.
-
Why
delay punishment when it is the End of the World?
-
When
will sinners have the time to repent for their sins to escape
punishment?
-
Which
fool won't repent when the skies are falling to pieces and mountains
tumbling down in Allah's Wrath?
-
Then
why is this absolutely frivolous act that allows all sinners, no
matter how immoral or murderous, to just repent and be eligible for paradise?
-
Why
are these Thieves of Faith able to conjecture and fool the Ummah, or is their
intelligence not insulted?
And
then the blind scholars tell their intellectually challenged followers that:
"We
can speak of Rewards and Punishments, the Fruits of Actions, the
Resurrection and the Tribunal, the Restoration of True Values, the
Elimination of all Wrong, and a hundred other phrases. They might serve to
introduce our minds vaguely to a new World, of which they cannot possibly
form any adequate conception under present conditions."
Again,
unless the Day of Resurrection and final Judgment is separated, the above
statement it makes
no sense.
Then
yet again Yusuf Ali and his forty Thieves of Truth struggle to
fuse Resurrection and Judgment together but with little success:
".
. . human laws and institutions may hold large masses of mankind under
their grip; falsehood and evil seem to flourish for a time, because a
certain amount of limited free will has been granted to man. This period
will be over then. The good and the pure will have been separated from the
evil and the rebellious; the latter will have been rendered inert, and the
former will have been so perfected that their wills will be in complete
consonance with Allah's Universal Will. The Command, thenceforward, will
be wholly with Allah."
Yet
again this false fusion of two different and distinct periods between the
Good News and Grace of Al-Qiyamah and the Death and Destruction of
Doomsday - separated by decades or centuries
- makes no sense. But prisoners of blind faith and
religious fundamentalism have been known to care little for logic and sense. Their
herd mentality gives them the security of numbers and self-bestowed righteousness, even in the face all obvious falsity. So we have to ask the
Ummah:
How, when and why
will Allah "give the sinner every chance of repentance and
amendment" on Judgment Day?
Does this
"period of probation" commence on Doomsday, or with His
messengers announcing the Good News of Qiyamah?
Does this Period of
Probation end on Doomsday itself, or when there are no more humans
aspiring to enter His Kingdom?
Did Thy Lord Most
Beneficent who created thee also create Hindus, Christians,
Buddhists and others?
Does Thy Lord Most
Beneficent who calls thee to the Resurrection also call all other
beings, or is it just the privilege of the Ummah?
Does Thy Lord Most
Beneficent who regards you as His children also regard all humans as
such?
And what will
explain to thee what the Day of Qiyamah (Al Qadr) and Day of Judgment
(Al Qariah) is?
Do your
ulema,
clerics, imams, shaikhs, muftis, mullahs and ayatollahs know the
difference between the Beginning of the Night of Power and Fate (Al
Qadr) and the End of the Day of Noise and Clamor (Al Qariah)?
Do they have the
power to influence your destiny and lead you to His Paradise during the
Resurrection - or Hell during Judgment Day?
Do they have the
power to save you from the wiles of Iblis, or do they lead you blindly
to his lair?
Do your religious
regimes and sects free you to respond to His Call, or do they hold you in their grip
as Qiyamah progresses on?
Is falsehood and
evil flourishing in the mosques as the Great News (surah 78:1-5 An-Naba)
of Qiyamah is spread across Earth?
Are the good and
the pure being "separated from the evil and rebellious" by the Good News?
Are the True
Believers (Al-Mu'minun) being rendered inert, and becoming "so
perfected that their wills are in complete consonance with Allah's
Universal Will"?
Does His Command
that you accept His Mercy and bear personal responsibility during the
Resurrection - lest they have to face the terrible Punishment on Judgment
Day - make sense?
And if it doesn't,
then what will explain to thee what the Day of Judgment is?
They
may defy Allah but they cannot stop His Will. The Day of Qiyamah has been
announced and no force can now obliterate this Revealed Truth from the
face of this Earth. But the Hypocrites (Al-Munafiqun) will defy and
dare Allah's Sure Sings of Qiyamah. The Unbelievers (Al-Kafirun) will differ and
deny the Great Event. The
entire Ummah will scorn and sneer at the Good News.
Of
what do they question one another?
Of
the Mighty Tiding whereon they are at variance.
No
indeed; they shall soon know!
Again, no indeed; they shall soon know!
surah
78:1-5 (The Tiding)

J. Arberry, The Koran Interpreted, Oxford University Press, 1983.)

"Among
the highest and greatest of the gifts of Allah is His Revelation, which is
the Criterion by which we may judge between right and wrong - between
false and true worship, between the Message that comes from Allah and the
forgeries of men, between the real in our eternal Future and the Fancies
by which we are misled. The Prophets of Allah come as men to live among
men and guide them."

Yusuf Ali, The Holy Qur'an

"At
the time of his expulsion from the 'Sublime Society' (al mala' il a'la)
for refusing to obey God's direct order to all the angels to prostrate
before Adam once God had fashioned him and blown into him of His Spirit,
Iblees the rejected, the nemesis of mankind, challenged God and vowed by
God's majesty that he would lead Adam and all his descendants, except
those of God's servants who absolutely devote their worship to Him alone,
astray. Iblees' methods are very subtle. He has no control over mankind,
but he will manipulate those who will listen to him. He whispers into
their ears his idolatrous suggestions and adorns them to beguile the
unwary, the lazy, the careless and those who will not take God's warnings
seriously. His sole objective is to get us to disobey God while thinking
that we are pleasing Him, especially in matters of religious practice. He
uses specious logic, distorts meanings and takes things out of their
proper context to build a logical-sounding argument on a partial truth."
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
That Day the dominion
as of right and truth shall be (wholly) for (Allah)
Most Merciful: it will be a day of dire difficulty for
the Misbelievers. Day that the wrongdoer will bite at
his hands He will say "Oh! would that I had taken
a (straight) path with the Apostle! Ah! woe is me!
would that I had never taken such a one for a friend
He did lead me astray from the Message (of Allah)
after it had come to me! Ah! the Evil One is but a
traitor to man!" Then the Apostle will say:
"O my Lord! truly my people took this Qur'an for
just foolish nonsense."

O men! certainly the
promise of Allah is true. Let not then this present
life deceive you nor let the Chief Deceiver deceive
you about Allah. Verily Satan is an enemy to you: so
treat him as an enemy. He only invites his adherents
that they may become Companions of the Blazing Fire.
For those who reject Allah is a terrible Penalty: but
for those who believe and work righteous deeds is
Forgiveness and a magnificent Reward.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

And O ye in sin! get ye
apart this Day! "Did I not enjoin on you O ye
children of Adam that ye should not worship Satan; for
that he was to you an enemy avowed? And that ye should
worship Me (for that) this was the Straight Way? But
he did lead astray a great multitude of you. Did ye
not then understand? This is the Hell of which ye were
(repeatedly) warned! Embrace ye the (Fire) this Day
for that ye (persistently) rejected (Truth).

Behold thy Lord said to
the angels: "I am about to create man from clay:
When I have fashioned him (in due proportion) and
breathed into him of My spirit fall ye down in
obeisance unto him." So the angels prostrated
themselves all of them together; Not so Iblis: he was
haughty and became one of those who reject Faith
(Allah) said: "O Iblis! what prevents thee from
prostrating thyself to one whom I have created with My
hands? Art thou haughty? Or art thou one of the high
(and mighty) ones?" (Iblis) said: "I am
better than he: Thou createdst me from fire and him
Thou createdst from clay." (Allah) said:
"Then get thee out from here: for thou art
rejected accursed. And My Curse shall be on thee till
the Day of Judgement." (Iblis) said: "O my
Lord! give me then respite till the Day the (dead) are
raised." (Allah) said: "Respite then is
granted thee till the day of the Time Appointed."
(Iblis) said: "Then by Thy power I will put them
all in the wrong except Thy Servants amongst them
sincere and purified (by Thy grace)." (Allah)
said: "Then it is just and fitting and I say what
is just and fitting that I will certainly fill Hell
with thee and those that follow thee--every one."

Say: I seek refuge with
the Lord and Cherisher of Mankind, the King (or Ruler)
of Mankind, the Allah of Mankind, from the mischief of
the Whisperer (of Evil) who withdraws (after his
whisper), who whispers into the hearts of mankind
among Jinns and among Men.
