Bismisllah, alhamdulillah, wa sallallahu ^ala sayidi rasulillah

I ask Allah to save us from the tribulation of this life, and let us die as Muslims.

Assalamu Alaykum, brothers and sisters, young and old..

I have a question..

do you think are you ready for that day?
Are you as prepared as you would be when you have an important meeting?
or are you as ready as when you have an important exam at the university or college?
are you as ready for your monthly review for your school or work??
did you ask yourself truly if you are .. ready to see it?

Let us picture all together this day..

The day of …

The Gathering ..

The day of al-hashr..

The day of assembly..

It is true, it’s all coming.

We believe for sure that it will happen. After the resurrection, the people will be gathered in one place.

This is Among the basics of the Islamic creed is to believe in the Gathering. After the Resurrection, there will be two angels guarding him. This is a sign that he will not be able to escape. All the people will be gathered in one place. This place is the changed earth (al-ardul-mubaddalah).

The Gathering will be on the changed earth, which is flat without mountains or valleys, just like a piece of tanned leather. It is more vast than this earth of ours, and it has a colour similar to the colour of silver.

After the Resurrection, Allah will transform this earth and give another form and different attributes. Allah will make it flat, without any mountain or valley in it. It is completely flat. The Prophet, sallallahu ^alayhi wa sallam, was asked where the people will be when the earth is changed. The Prophet, sallallahu ^alayhi wa sallam, said “^Indas-Sirat,” which means “Next to the Sirat.” Muslim narrated this from the Prophet.

After the Resurrection, the people will be transported to a dark place next to As-Sirat. Then the earth will be changed. Then they will be again transported to the changed earth. Allah transforms this earth after removing the people from it. All of the earth will be made flat and silver in colour.

When the people are gathered there, the angels will surround them. This is another sign that the people cannot escape on that Day. All the nations of all the prophets will be 120 rows. That is, all the people of Paradise will be 120 lines. 80 of these lines will be from the ummah of Muhammad, sallallahu ^alayhi wa sallam.

When the Gathering occurs, the people will be moving in the direction of the land of Ash-Sham. It is the center of the Gathering. Specifically, towards Palestine, because Palestine is the center of the land of Sham. Most of the prophets were in Palestine. Among the known graves of prophets are the graves of Nabiyy Ibrahim, Nabiyy Ishaq, Nabiyy Ya^qub and Nabiyy Yusuf. So Palestine is the center of the Sham area.

The people will be gathered in three ways…

  1. The first group will be gathered while clothed, riding female camels with gold saddles, and they will be fed. These are the pious people.

  2. The second group will be gathered without shoes and they will be naked. These are the enormous sinner Muslims.

  3. The third group will be gathered while dragged on their faces. These are the blasphemers.

we ask Allah to protect us, and enable us to prepare from the good deeds for that day..

… are you ready for that day?
… how much have you prepared for it?

Re: are you ready for this day....?

Being ready for that day means you have repented from all the sins and did all the obligations. We all most fully abide by the obligations and refrain from all the sins.

I think we all need to improve on ourselves, our manners, our efforts in serving Islam. I would advise everyone of you ask himself every day, how did I serve my religion today?

Re: are you ready for this day....?

There's reference from the Qur'an about the punishment in the grave and the misrable life for the kafir or enormous sinner:

Allah ta^ala said: in Surat Al-Mu’min verse 46:

{ النار يعرضون عليها غدواً و عشياً و يوم تقوم الساعة أدخلوا ءال فرعون أشد العذاب }

which means: Fire will be shown to Pharaoh and his Al in the morning and afternoon and on the Day of Judgment they will be admitted to the severe torture, i.e., Hellfire. The prophet, sallallahu ^alayhi wa sallam, said:

إن العبد إذا وضع فى قبره و تولى عنه أصحابه إنه ليسمع قرع نعالهم إذا انصرفوا أتاه ملكان فيقعدانه فيقولان: ما كنت تقول فى هذا الرجل محمد؟ فأما المؤمن فيقول: أشهد أنه عبد الله و رسوله، فيقال له: أنظر إلى مقعدك فى النار أبدلك الله به مقعداً من الجنه فيراهما جميعاً، ا أما الكافر أو المنافق فيقول: لا أدرى كنت أقول ما يقول الناس فيه، فيقال له: لا دريت و لا تليت، ثم يضرب بمطرقة من حديد بين أذنيه فيصيح صيحة يسمعها من يليه إلا الثقلين.

When the slave is put in his grave and his companions walk away from him, he will hear the tapping of their shoes. The two angels will come to him. They will sit him up and say: What did you use to say about this man Muhammad? The believer will say: I bear witness that he is the slave of Allah and his Messenger. He will be told: Look at your place in Hell fire, Allah replaced it with a place in Paradise. Then he will see both of them. However, the blasphemer or the hypocrite (munafiq) will say: I don’t know, I used to say what the people used to say about him. He will be told: You did not know or tell the right answer. Then he will be struck by an iron hammer between his ears. He will shout an outcry which will be heard by the ones close to him except the humans and the jinn (narrated by al-Bukhariyy and Muslim as related by Anas from the prophet, sallallahu ^alayhi wa sallam).

The prophet, sallallahu ^alayhi wa sallam, said:

إذا قبر الميت او الإنسان أتاه ملكان أسودان أزرقان يقال لأحدهما :منكر و للآخر: نكير، فيقولان له: ما كنت تقول فى هذا الرجل محمد، فهو قائل ما كان يقول، فإن كان مؤمناً قال: هو عبد الله و رسوله أشهد أن لا إله إلا الله و أشهد أن محمداً عبده و رسوله، فيقولان له إن كنا لنعلم أنك لتقول ذلك، ثم يفسح له فى قبره سبعون ذراعاً فى سبعين ذراعاً، و ينور له فيه، فيقال له: نم فينام كنوم العروس الذى لايوقظه إلا أحب أهله حتى يبعثه الله من مضجعه ذلك

If the dead or the human is buried, two black-bluish angels will come to him. One of them is called Munkar and the other is called Nakir. They will say to him: What did you use to say about this man Muhammad? The dead will say what he used to say about him. If he was a believer he says: He is the slave and messenger of Allah, I testify that no one is God but Allah and I testify that Muhammad is his slave and messenger. They will say to him: We already knew that you will say that. Then his grave will be widened 70 cubits by 70 cubits and it will be illuminated for him. He will be told: Sleep. He will sleep like the groom who will not be awakened except by one’s most beloved wives, until Allah resurrects him from that sleeping place of his (narrated by Ibn Hibban).

Allah said in Surat al-Hajj verse 7:
{ و أن الساعة ءاتية لا ريب فيها و أن الله يبعث من فى القبور }

which means: Without a doubt the Day of Judgment is coming and Allah will resurrect those who are in the graves.

Allah said in Surat al-Baqarah verse 203:
{ و اتقوا الله و اعلموا أنكم إليه تحشرون }

which means: Be God-fearing and know that you will be assembled for Judgment after He recreates you. Allah also said in Surat al-Isra’ verse 97:

{ و نحشرهم يوم القيامة على وجوههم عمياً و بكماً و صماً }
which means: The blasphemers will be assembled on the Day of Judgment on their faces blind, mute and deaf -mute. Allah also said in Surat al-Takwir verse 5:

Allah ta^ala said in Surat al-Mi^raj verse 4:
{ فى يوم كان مقداره خمسين ألف سنة }
which means: During a Day whose length is 50,000 years.

As for the details of the assembly, they mentioned in the Ahadith.
Allah knows best.

Re: are you ready for this day…?

You repent if you commit a sin. I don’t sin and I am not only ready for the day but actually looking forward to it so I can ask questions to God which only He can answer.
I am not here in this world to serve religion or anyone for that matter. This is your preception of this world which is your right of course.

Re: are you ready for this day....?

So you mean even in afterlife the answers will not be answered. Very enlightening.
