Blowing of the Horn
Before
the last bay begins, angel Israfil will blow out a horn marking the start of
the qiyamate. All living beings will die on listening to the sound of the horn.
Horn will be blown second time and all living beings will come to life again
waiting to be judged for their actions.
Good Deeds vs. Bad Deeds
No
deed either small or big will go wasted. Every deed will be counted. The Qur'an
also states that even the smallest acts of the believers will not be wasted.
"Anyone
who has an atom's worth of goodness will see it and anyone who has done an
atom's worth of evil will also see it" (Qur'an 99:7-8). Those who do good
if they are Muslims, will be rewarded not only in this world but also in the
world hereafter. However, the final Judgment is up to God himself” [Qur'an
2:62]
The Gathering and duration
Alameen
(humankind, the Jinn, and all other living beings) will be gathered upon a
vast, white, featureless ground, under intense heat of the Sun overhead. They
will be naked, uncircumcised and crowded together to the point where some are
submerged in their own sweat, as in the beginning of creation. The degree to
which one is submerged in sweat depends on the extent of one's piety and
goodness. The faces of the believers will be nadirah (shining and radiant). On
the other hand, the faces of disbelievers will be basirah (dark, sad and
frowning). Qiyamah will last for 50,000 years.
Idols
will assert that only Allah is Lord, and that they were wrongfully worshipped.
The Qur'an and Hadith state that Jesus returns and denies he claimed he is God
(Qur'an 43.61).
Al-Kawthar
Believers
will be lead by Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) to the lake-fount called as Kawthar.
Who so ever drinks it will never be thirsty again.
Redemption
In
one Hadith, it is related that after the Intercession of Muhammad ﷺ, Allah Himself
intercedes, repeatedly ordering His angels to fetch out of Jahannam (hell) any
who sincerely professed the Shahada (Sahih Bukhari) until the angels are
ordered to return and find anyone with even an atom's measure of goodness in
his or her heart. Those who have worshipped false gods, or have participated in
shirk (idol worship) are not rescued from Jahannam (hell) and instead remain
there forever. After the Intercession, life resumes, either in Jannah
(paradise) or in Jahannam (hell).
