حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عُمَرَ، حَفْصُ بْنُ مَيْسَرَةَ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ رضى الله عنه

أَنَّ أُنَاسًا فِي زَمَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، هَلْ نَرَى رَبَّنَا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «نَعَمْ، هَلْ تُضَارُّونَ فِي رُؤْيَةِ الشَّمْسِ بِالظَّهِيرَةِ، ضَوْءٌ لَيْسَ فِيهَا سَحَابٌ».

قَالُوا لَا. قَالَ: «وَهَلْ تُضَارُّونَ فِي رُؤْيَةِ الْقَمَرِ لَيْلَةَ الْبَدْرِ، ضَوْءٌ لَيْسَ فِيهَا سَحَابٌ». قَالُوا لَا. قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَا تُضَارُّونَ فِي رُؤْيَةِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ، إِلاَّ كَمَا تُضَارُّونَ فِي رُؤْيَةِ أَحَدِهِمَا، إِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْقِيَامَةِ أَذَّنَ مُؤَذِّنٌ تَتْبَعُ كُلُّ أُمَّةٍ مَا كَانَتْ تَعْبُدُ.

فَلَا يَبْقَى مَنْ كَانَ يَعْبُدُ غَيْرَ اللَّهِ مِنَ الأَصْنَامِ وَالأَنْصَابِ إِلاَّ يَتَسَاقَطُونَ فِي النَّارِ، حَتَّى إِذَا لَمْ يَبْقَ إِلاَّ مَنْ كَانَ يَعْبُدُ اللَّهَ، بَرٌّ أَوْ فَاجِرٌ وَغُبَّرَاتُ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ، فَيُدْعَى الْيَهُودُ فَيُقَالُ لَهُمْ مَنْ كُنْتُمْ تَعْبُدُونَ قَالُوا كُنَّا نَعْبُدُ عُزَيْرَ ابْنَ اللَّهِ.

فَيُقَالُ لَهُمْ كَذَبْتُمْ، مَا اتَّخَذَ اللَّهُ مِنْ صَاحِبَةٍ وَلَا وَلَدٍ، فَمَاذَا تَبْغُونَ فَقَالُوا عَطِشْنَا رَبَّنَا فَاسْقِنَا. فَيُشَارُ أَلَا تَرِدُونَ، فَيُحْشَرُونَ إِلَى النَّارِ كَأَنَّهَا سَرَابٌ، يَحْطِمُ بَعْضُهَا بَعْضًا فَيَتَسَاقَطُونَ فِي النَّارِ، ثُمَّ يُدْعَى النَّصَارَى، فَيُقَالُ لَهُمْ مَنْ كُنْتُمْ تَعْبُدُونَ قَالُوا كُنَّا نَعْبُدُ الْمَسِيحَ ابْنَ اللَّهِ.

فَيُقَالُ لَهُمْ كَذَبْتُمْ، مَا اتَّخَذَ اللَّهُ مِنْ صَاحِبَةٍ وَلَا وَلَدٍ. فَيُقَالُ لَهُمْ مَاذَا تَبْغُونَ فَكَذَلِكَ مِثْلَ الأَوَّلِ، حَتَّى إِذَا لَمْ يَبْقَ إِلاَّ مَنْ كَانَ يَعْبُدُ اللَّهَ مِنْ بَرٍّ أَوْ فَاجِرٍ، أَتَاهُمْ رَبُّ الْعَالَمِينَ فِي أَدْنَى صُورَةٍ مِنَ الَّتِي رَأَوْهُ فِيهَا، فَيُقَالُ مَاذَا تَنْتَظِرُونَ تَتْبَعُ كُلُّ أُمَّةٍ مَا كَانَتْ تَعْبُدُ.

قَالُوا فَارَقْنَا النَّاسَ فِي الدُّنْيَا عَلَى أَفْقَرِ مَا كُنَّا إِلَيْهِمْ، وَلَمْ نُصَاحِبْهُمْ، وَنَحْنُ نَنْتَظِرُ رَبَّنَا الَّذِي كُنَّا نَعْبُدُ. فَيَقُولُ أَنَا رَبُّكُمْ، فَيَقُولُونَ: لَا نُشْرِكُ بِاللَّهِ شَيْئًا. مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثًا»

During the lifetime of the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) some people said,: O Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam)! Shall we see our Lord on the Day of Resurrection?

The Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said, “Yes; do you have any difficulty in seeing the sun at midday when it is bright and there is no cloud in the sky?” They replied, “No.”

He said, “Do you have any difficulty in seeing the moon on a full moon night when it is bright and there is no cloud in the sky?” They replied, “No.” The Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said, “(Similarly) you will have no difficulty in seeing Allah on the Day of Resurrection as you have no difficulty in seeing either of them.

On the Day of Resurrection, a call-maker will announce, ‘Let every nation follow that which they used to worship.’ Then none of those who used to worship anything other than Allah like idols and other deities but will fall in Hell (Fire), till there will remain none but those who used to worship Allah, both those who were obedient (i.e. good) and those who were disobedient (i.e. bad) and the remaining party of the people of the Scripture.

Then the Jews will be called upon and it will be said to them, ‘Who did you use to worship?’ They will say, ‘We used to worship Ezra, the son of Allah.’ It will be said to them, ‘You are liars, for Allah has never taken anyone as a wife or a son. What do you want now?’ They will say, ‘O our Lord! We are thirsty, so give us something to drink.’

They will be directed and addressed thus, ‘Will you drink,’ whereupon they will be gathered unto Hell (Fire) which will look like a mirage whose different sides will be destroying each other. Then they will fall into the Fire. Afterwards the Christians will be called upon and it will be said to them, ‘Who did you use to worship?’

They will say, ‘We used to worship Jesus, the son of Allah.’ It will be said to them, ‘You are liars, for Allah has never taken anyone as a wife or a son,’ Then it will be said to them, ‘What do you want?’

They will say what the former people have said. Then, when there remain (in the gathering) none but those who used to worship Allah (Alone, the real Lord of the Worlds) whether they were obedient or disobedient. Then (Allah) the Lord of the worlds will come to them in a shape nearest to the picture they had in their minds about Him.

It will be said, ‘What are you waiting for?’ Every nation has followed what they used to worship.” They will reply, ‘We left the people in the world when we were in great need of them and we did not take them as friends. Now we are waiting for our Lord Whom we used to worship.’ Allah will say, ‘I am your Lord.’ They will say twice or thrice, ‘We do not worship any besides Allah.’

আবূ সা‘ঈদ খুদরী (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু ‘আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম-এর যুগে একদল লোক বলল, হে আল্লাহর রাসূল! আমরা কি কিয়ামতের দিন আমাদের প্রতিপালককে দেখতে পাব?

রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু ‘আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বললেন, হ্যাঁ, অবশ্যই। গ্রীষ্মের মেঘমুক্ত দুপুরের প্রখর কিরণবিশিষ্ট সূর্য দেখতে তোমরা কি পরস্পর ভিড় করে থাক?

তারা বলল, না। রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু ‘আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বললেন, পূর্ণিমার রাতে মেঘমুক্ত আলো বিশিষ্ট চন্দ্র দেখতে তোমরা কি ভিড় কর? আবার তারা বলল, না। রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু ‘আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বললেন, এদের কোনটিকে দেখতে যেমন পরস্পর ভিড় কর না; কিয়ামতের দিনও আল্লাহকে দেখতেও তোমরা পরস্পর ভিড় করবে না। ক্বিয়ামাত (কিয়ামত) যখন আসবে তখন এক ঘোষণাকারী ঘোষণা দেবে।

তখন প্রত্যেকেই আপন আপন উপাস্যের অনুসরণ করবে। আল্লাহ ব্যতীত প্রতিমা ও পাথর ইত্যাদির যারা পূজা করেছে, তারা সকলে জাহান্নামে গিয়ে পড়বে, একজনও বাকী থাকবে না। পুণ্যবান হোক অথবা পাপী, এরা এবং আল্লাহর অবশিষ্ট বিশ্বাসীরা ব্যতীত যখন আর কেউ থাকবে না, তখন ইয়াহূদীদেরকে ডেকে বলা হবে, তোমরা কার ‘ইবাদাত করতে? তারা বলবে, আমরা আল্লাহর পুত্র উযাইয়ের ‘ইবাদাত করতাম।

তাদেরকে বলা হবে যে, তোমরা মিথ্যা বলছ। আল্লাহ স্ত্রীও গ্রহণ করেননি, পুত্রও গ্রহণ করেননি। তোমরা কী চাও? তারা বলবে, হে আমাদের প্রতিপালক! আমরা তৃষ্ণার্ত, আমাদেরকে পানি পান করান। এরপর তাদেরকে ইশারা করা হবে যে, তোমরা পানির ধারে যাও না কেন? এরপর তাদেরকে জাহান্নামের দিকে একত্র করা হবে তা যেন মরুভূমির মরীচিকা, এক এক অংশ অন্য অংশকে ভেঙ্গে ফেলছে।

অতঃপর তারা সবাই জাহান্নামে পতিত হবে। তারপর নাসারাদেরকে ডাকা হবে। তাদেরকে বলা হবে, তোমরা কার ‘ইবাদাত করতে? তারা বলবে, আমরা আল্লাহর পুত্র মসীহের ‘ইবাদাত করতাম। তাদের বলা হবে, তোমরা মিথ্যা বলছ। আল্লাহ স্ত্রীও গ্রহণ করেননি, পুত্রও নয়। তাদেরকে বলা হবে, তোমরা কী চাও? তারাও প্রথম পক্ষের মতো বলবে এবং তাদের মতো জাহান্নামে নিপতিত হবে।

অবশেষে পুণ্যবান হোক কিংবা পাপী হোক আল্লাহর উপাসনাকারী ব্যতীত আর কেউ যখন বাকি থাকবে না, তখন তাদের কাছে পরিচিত রূপের নিকটতম একটি রূপ নিয়ে রাববুল আলামীন তাদের কাছে আবির্ভূত হবেন। এরপর বলা হবে, প্রত্যেক দল নিজ নিজ উপাস্যের অনুসরণ করে চলে গেছে। তোমরা কিসের অপেক্ষা করছ? তারা বলবে, দুনিয়াতে এ সকল লোকের প্রতি আমাদের অনেক প্রয়োজন থাকা সত্ত্বেও আমরা সেখানে তাদের থেকে আলাদা থেকেছি এবং তাদের সঙ্গে সম্পর্ক রাখিনি।

এখন আমরা আমাদের প্রতিপালকের অপেক্ষায় আছি, আমরা তাঁর ‘ইবাদাত করতাম। এরপর তিনি বলবেন, আমিই তোমাদের প্রতিপালক। তারা বলবে, আমরা আল্লাহর সঙ্গে কাউকে শরীক করব না। এ কথাটি দু’বার কি তিনবার বলবে। [২২]

مجھ سے محمد بن عبدالعزیز نے بیان کیا، کہا ہم سے ابوعمر حفص بن میسرہ نے بیان کیا، ان سے زید بن اسلم نے، ان سے عطاء بن یسار نے اور ان سے ابو سعید خدری رضی اللہ عنہ نے بیان کیا کہ کچھ صحابہ رضی اللہ عنہم نے رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کے زمانہ میں آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم سے پوچھا: یا رسول اللہ!

کیا قیامت کے دن ہم اپنے رب کو دیکھ سکیں گے؟ آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا کہ ہاں، کیا سورج کو دوپہر کے وقت دیکھنے میں تمہیں کوئی دشواری ہوتی ہے، جبکہ اس پر بادل بھی نہ ہو؟ صحابہ رضی اللہ عنہم نے عرض کیا کہ نہیں۔ پھر آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا اور کیا چودھویں رات کے چاند کو دیکھنے میں تمہیں کچھ دشواری پیش آتی ہے، جبکہ اس پر بادل نہ ہو؟

صحابہ رضی اللہ عنہم نے عرض کیا کہ نہیں۔ پھر آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا کہ بس اسی طرح تم بلا کسی دقت اور رکاوٹ کے اللہ تعالیٰ کو دیکھو گے۔ قیامت کے دن ایک منادی ندا کرے گا کہ ہر امت اپنے جھوٹے معبودوں کے ساتھ حاضر ہو جائے۔ اس وقت اللہ کے سوا جتنے بھی بتوں اور پتھروں کی پوجا ہوتی تھی، سب کو جہنم میں جھونک دیا جائے گا۔

پھر جب وہی لوگ باقی رہ جائیں گے جو صرف اللہ کی پوجا کیا کرتے تھے، خواہ نیک ہوں یا گنہگار اور اہل کتاب کے کچھ لوگ، تو پہلے یہود کو بلایا جائے گا اور پوچھا جائے گا کہ تم ( اللہ کے سوا ) کس کی پوجا کرتے تھے؟ وہ عرض کریں گے کہ عزیر ابن اللہ کی، اللہ تعالیٰ ان سے فرمائے گا لیکن تم جھوٹے تھے، اللہ نے نہ کسی کو اپنی بیوی بنایا اور نہ بیٹا، اب تم کیا چاہتے ہو؟

وہ کہیں گے، ہمارے رب! ہم پیاسے ہیں، ہمیں پانی پلا دے۔ انہیں اشارہ کیا جائے گا کہ کیا ادھر نہیں چلتے۔ چنانچہ سب کو جہنم کی طرف لے جایا جائے گا۔ وہاں چمکتی ریت پانی کی طرح نظر آئے گی، بعض بعض کے ٹکڑے کئے دے رہی ہو گی۔ پھر سب کو آگ میں ڈال دیا جائے گا۔

پھر نصاریٰ کو بلایا جائے گا اور ان سے پوچھا جائے گا کہ تم کس کی عبادت کیا کرتے تھے؟ وہ کہیں گے کہ ہم مسیح ابن اللہ کی عبادت کرتے تھے۔

ان سے بھی کہا جائے گا کہ تم جھوٹے تھے۔ اللہ نے کسی کو بیوی اور بیٹا نہیں بنایا، پھر ان سے پوچھا جائے گا کہ کیا چاہتے ہو؟ اور ان کے ساتھ یہودیوں کی طرح برتاؤ کیا جائے گا۔ یہاں تک کہ جب ان لوگوں کے سوا اور کوئی باقی نہ رہے گا جو صرف اللہ کی عبادت کرتے تھے، خواہ وہ نیک ہوں یا گنہگار، تو ان کے پاس ان کا رب ایک صورت میں جلوہ گر ہو گا، جو پہلی صورت سے جس کو وہ دیکھ چکے ہوں گے، ملتی جلتی ہو گی ( یہ وہ صورت نہ ہو گی ) اب ان سے کہا جائے گا۔

اب تمہیں کس کا انتظار ہے؟ ہر امت اپنے معبودوں کو ساتھ لے کر جا چکی، وہ جواب دیں گے کہ ہم دنیا میں جب لوگوں سے ( جنہوں نے کفر کیا تھا ) جدا ہوئے تو ہم ان میں سب سے زیادہ محتاج تھے، پھر بھی ہم نے ان کا ساتھ نہیں دیا اور اب ہمیں اپنے سچے رب کا انتظار ہے جس کی ہم دنیا میں عبادت کرتے رہے۔

اللہ تعالیٰ فرمائے گا کہ تمہارا رب میں ہی ہوں۔ اس پر تمام مسلمان بول اٹھیں گے کہ ہم اپنے رب کے ساتھ کسی کو شریک نہیں ٹھہراتے، دو یا تین مرتبہ یوں کہیں گے ہم اللہ کے ساتھ کسی کو شریک کرنے والے نہیں ہیں۔

Telah menceritakan kepadaku [Muhammad bin 'Abdul 'Aziz] Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Abu 'Umar Hafsh bin Maisarah] dari [Zaid bin Aslam] dari ['Atha bin Yasar] dari [Sa'id Al Khudri radliallahu 'anhu] dia berkata; sejumlah orang pada masa Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam berkata; 'Ya Rasulullah, apakah kami dapat melihat Allah pada hari kiamat?

Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam menjawab. 'Ya, ' apakah kalian merasa kesulitan melihat matahari yang terang benderang serta tidak ada mendung?" Mereka berkata: "Tidak wahai Rasulullah!"

lalu Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam bersabda: "Apakah kalian merasa kesullitan melihat rembulan pada malam purnama yang tidak ada mendung dibawahnya?", mereka berkata; "Tidak, wahai Rasulullah!"

Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam bersabda: "Sesungguhnya kalian akan melihat-Nya kelak pada hari kiamat tanpa merasa kesulitan sebagaimana kalian melihat salah satu dari keduanya. Pada hari kiamat, sang penyeru akan mengumumkan, setiap umat mengikuti apa yang mereka sembah. Maka mereka yang menyembah selain Allah seperti berhala dan tuhan-tuhan yang lain akan berjatuhan ke neraka.

Hingga yang tinggal hanyalah mereka yang menyembah Allah baik orang-orang yang saleh maupun orang yang jahat dan sejumlah orang dari ahlu kitab. Kemudian orang Yahudi akan dipanggil, Allah akan bertanya kepada mereka: Apa yang kamu sembah?

Mereka menjawab; 'Kami menyembah Uzair putra Allah. Maka akan dikatakan kepada mereka; 'Kalian adalah para pendusta! Karena Allah tidak pernah mengambil istri atau memilik anak. Apa yang sekarang kalian inginkan?

Mereka menjawab; 'Kami sangat haus ya Rabb, maka berilah kami minum. Maka mereka digiring dan ditunjukan, 'Minumlah. Pada saat itulah mereka akan dikumpulkan di dalam api neraka yang bentuknya seperti fatamorgana yang saling merusak satu sama yang lainnya. Kemudian mereka akan ditenggelamkan ke dalam api neraka. Setelah itu orang-orang Nashrani akan dipanggil, Apa yang kamu sembah?

Mereka menjawab; 'Yesus putra Allah. Maka dikatakan kepada mereka: 'Kalian adalah para pendusta! Karena Allah tidak pernah mengambil istri atau memilik anak. Apa yang sekarang kalian inginkan?

Maka mereka menjawab sebagaimana orang Yahudi dan akan dilemparkan ke dalam api neraka. Kemudian yang tetap tinggal adalah mereka yang hanya beribadah kepada Allah. Baik itu orang saleh atau orang yang berbuat kejahatan. Allah akan mendatangi mereka dalam bentuk yang mendekati gambaran mereka tentang Dia dalam benak mereka. Akan dikatakan kepada mereka; Apa yang kalian tunggu?

Setiap bangsa mengikuti tuhan yang disembahnya didunia. Mereka akan menjawab; Kami meninggalkan orang-orang di dunia ketika kami sedang sangat membutuhkan mereka dan kami tidak mengambil mereka sebagai tandingan. Sekarang kami sedang menunggu Rabb kami yang kami sembah.

Maka Allah akan berkata; Akulah Rabb kalian, mereka akan senantiasa berkata, sebanyak dua atau tiga kali; 'Kami tidak menyekutukan Allah

Ebu Saıd el-Hudrı'den rivayet edildiğine göre, bazı insanlar asrı saadette Hz. Nebi'e gelip: Ey Allah'ın Elçisi! Kıyamet günü Rabbimizi görecek miyiz? diye sordular.

Nebi Sallallahu Alyhi ve Sellem de şöyle buyurdu: - Evet. Bulutsuz bir havada ışık saçan güneşi gün ortasında görmek için tartışıp itişip kakışarak birbirinize zarar verir misiniz? Ashab-ı kiram "Hayır," cevabını verince, bu defa Hz.

Nebi şöyle buyurdu: Peki bulutsuz bir dolunay gecesi gökyüzünde parlayan ayı görmek için tartışıp itişip kakışarak birbirinize zarar verir misiniz? Ashab-ı kiram yine "Hayır," cevabını verdi. Bunun üzerine Hz.

Nebi şöyle buyurdu: Kıyamet günü de Allah'ı görmek için tartışıp itişip kakışarak birbirinize zarar vermeyeceksiniz. Allah'ı görme konusuda, güneş ve ayı görme hususunda birbirinize verdiğiniz zarardan başka zarar vermeyeceksiniz. Kıyamet günü bir tellal çıkıp "Her millet kendisine ibadet ettiğinin peşine düşsün!" diye ilan edecektir.

İşte o an Allah 'ın dışında putlara ve dikili taşlara ibadet eden herkes Cehenneme dökülecektir. Nihayet Allah'a ibadet eden iyi ve kötü insanlarla ehl-i kitabın son temsilcileri kalacak. Sonra Yahudiler çağırılacak. Onlara: Kime tapıyordunuz? diye sorulacak. Yahudiler: - Biz Allah'ın oğlu Üzeyr'e tapıyorduk, cevabını verecek. Bunun üzerine onlara şöyle denilecek: Yalan söylediniz!

Zira Hak Teala ne bir eş edinmiştir, ne de bir çocuk. Şimdi [söyleyin bakalım] ne istiyorsunuz? Yahudiler: Ey Rabbimiz! Çok susadık. Bizi suya kandır, diye yalvaracaklar. - Onlara işaret yoluyla "Hadi su başına buyurun" denecek. Sonra Cehenneme sürülecekler. Serap görecekler ve yalımları birbirine çarpan Cehennem ateşini su zannedecekler.

Bu yüzden birbirlerinin peşi sıra Cehenneme atlayacaklar. / Sonra Hıristiyanlar çağırlacak. Onlara da; - Kime tapıyordunuz? sorusu sorulacak. Hıristiyanlar: Allah'ın oğlu Mesih'e tapıyorduk, cevabını erecekler. Bunun üzerine onlara da: Yalan söylüyorsunuz! Zira Allah ne bir eş edinmiştir, ne de bir çocuk. Sonra onlara: Şimdi ne istiyorsunuz?

diye sorulacak. Daha sonra Yahudilerin başlarına gelen onların da başına gelecek. Geride, Allah'a ibadet eden iyi ve kötü kimselerden başkası kalmayacak. Bu sırada alemlerin Rabbi, müminlerin daha önceden öğrendiği vasfına yakın bir surette gelip onlara; Ne bekliyorsunuz? Her ümmet ibadet ettiği ilaha tabi oldu, buyuracak. İnsanlar da şöyle cevap verecekler: Dünyada iken kendilerine en fazla ihtiyaç duyduğumuz konularda bile onlardan aynıdık.

Asla onlarla birlikte olmadık. Şimdi biz, taptığımlZ Rabbimizi bekliyoruz. Bunun üzerine Yüce Allah, "Ben sizin Rabbinizim," buyuracak. İnsanlar da iki ya da üç kez "Allah'a hiçbir şeyi ortak koşmayız," diyecektir. AÇiKLAMA : İmam Buhari! bu hadisi şefaat konusunda da zikretmişti.

Sahih al-Bukhari 4581, Book 65, Prophetic Commentary on the Qur'an (Tafseer of the Prophet (pbuh)), Hadith 103. 3 min read

What it means

Some of the Companions asked the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) if they will see their Lord on the Day of Judgment. He answered in the affirmative, saying that they will see their Lord just as they see the sun at noon and the moon in the full moonlit night, without crowding or competing for it. The similarity drawn here is related to the clarity of vision and the removal of doubt and difficulty.

It is a similarity of clear vision in both cases, not of the seen objects. This sight of Allah is different from the sight of Him in Paradise, which is particular to the allies of Allah as an honor for them. The sight of Him in this Hadīth distinguishes between those who worshiped Allah and those who worshiped other deities. Then the Messenger of Allah (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) said that on the Day of Judgment, a proclaimer will proclaim: "Whoever worshiped other than Allah, let him follow what he worshiped."

Another authentic narration says that Allah, the Almighty, is the One Who proclaims. Hence, all those who worshiped idols and stones would be gathered and thrown in the fire of Hell until only those who worshiped Allah remain, both the righteous and the sinful thereof, as well as some remnants of the Jews and the Christians, for most of them will have gone along with their idols to Hell.

Hell will be presented to the people in that situation as if it is a mirage. Then the Jews will be summoned, and it will be said to them: "What did you worship?" They will say: "We worshiped ‘Uzayr, the son of Allah."

It will be said to them: "You tell a lie; Allah never had a spouse or a son. What do you want now?" They will say: "We want to drink." Their primary request will be water because the successive terrors on that day will have made them extremely thirsty.

Hell will seem to be water to them, so they will be told to go and drink from what they see as water. Thus, they will go, only to find that it is Hell with its raging parts, which will be consuming one another, and they will fall into it. The same will happen to the Christians after them, until no one is left except those who worshiped Allah, be they pious or sinful.

It will be said to them: "Why are you still here while everyone else has gone?" They will say: "We kept ourselves separate from the people in the world though we were in great need of them because they disobeyed Allah and went against His command. So we did not associate ourselves with them, hating them for the sake of Allah and giving precedence to obeying our Lord.

We now await our Lord, Whom we used to worship in our worldly life." Allah, the Almighty, will come to them in a form other than the one they saw the first time. This is an explicit indication that they had seen Him in a form that was recognizable to them before this time. It is invalid to interpret this scene differently; rather, it must be accepted without asking 'How?'

or drawing analogies or distorting or negating it. When Allah, the Almighty, comes to them, He will say: "I am your Lord." They will joyfully say: "You are our Lord." Then only the prophets will speak to Him. He will say: "Is there a sign between you and Him by which you recognize Him?" They will say: "The Shin." So He will reveal His Shin, and the believers will recognize Him and fall in prostration before Him.

The hypocrites, however, who used to prostrate out of ostentation, will be prevented from prostrating. Their backs will be like one stiff layer, unable to bow or prostrate. That is because they did not prostrate to Allah in the worldly life; rather, they prostrated to serve their worldly purposes. This scene establishes that Allah, the Almighty, has a Shin as one of His Attributes.

Thus, this Hadīth and similar ones interpret the noble verse: {The Day the Shin will be uncovered and they are invited to prostration but they will not be able to do so} [Sūrat al-Qalam: 42]. To interpret 'Shin' in this context as 'severe affliction' or 'distress' is an outweighed interpretation. In any case, the Attribute of the 'Shin' is established for Allah, the Almighty, from the Sunnah.

The preponderant view is that the verse indicates the Attribute, without asking "How?" or drawing analogies or distorting or negating. Then the Sirāt will be set up over Hell. It is slippery, feet cannot stand firm on it, with hooks to seize some of the passers on the Sirāt and thick flat thorns. The people will then pass over the Sirāt according to their faith and deeds.

Those of perfect faith and good deeds that were sincere to Allah will pass like the twinkling of an eye, others will pass like lightning, like wind, etc. Those who pass over the Sirāt will be of four categories: The first: Those who will be saved and safe from harm. They pass at different speeds, as mentioned above. The second: Those who will be saved but will sustain scratches from the hooks or lacerations from the flames of Hell.

The third: Those who will be cast into Hell, forcefully thrown into it. The fourth: Those who will be dragged on the Sirāt because they did not have enough good deeds to carry them over it. Then the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "There will be none among you more eager to claim a right from me than the believers on the Day of Judgment from their Lord, the Almighty."

This is part of the mercy and generosity of Allah, as He permits His believing slaves to implore Him to pardon their brethren who were thrown in Hell because of the sins that they defied their Lord with. He will inspire the believers who were saved from the torment of the Fire and the terrors of the Sirāt to implore Him and intercede with Him for those sinning slaves.

This is indeed an aspect of His mercy, exalted be He. They will say: "O our Lord, they were our brethren who prayed with us, fasted with us, and did good deeds with us." This indicates that those who do not pray with the Muslims nor fast with them are not entitled to the intercession of the believers with their Lord on their behalf.

It also indicates that those whom the believers interceded for were also believers who worshiped Allah alone. They used to pray and fast, but they committed some sins which entailed entering Hell. This is a refutation of two deviant sects: the Kharijites and the Mu‘tazilites, who claim that whoever enters Hell never comes out of it and that the person who commits a major sin will remain eternally in Hell.

Allah, the Almighty, will say to the believers: "Go and take out (of Hell) anyone in whose heart you find faith equal to the weight of a dinar (a gold coin)." And Allah will forbid the Fire to burn the faces of those sinners. They will go and find that some of them will have been overtaken by fire up to their feet, and some up to the middle of the shank or up to the knees.

They will take out those whom they recognize. Then they will return and implore Allah again. He will say: "Go and take out anyone in whose heart you find faith equal to the weight of half a dinar." They will take out those whom they recognize. Then they will return and implore Allah again. He will say: "Go and take out anyone in whose heart you find faith equal to the weight of an atom."

They will take out those whom they recognize. At this point, Abu Sa‘īd al-Khudri said: "If you do not believe me, then recite (the noble verse): {Surely Allah wrongs not the weight of an atom; and if it is a good deed, He multiplies it.} [Sūrat An-Nisā': 40]" The fact that Abu Sa‘īd used this verse as evidence is clear proof that if the slave had an atom’s weight of faith in his heart, Allah will multiply it for him and thus save him from the torment thereby.

Then he said: "The prophets, the angels, and the believers will intercede." This is explicit proof that these three categories will be granted permission to intercede. However, it must be noted that any intercession from anyone does not take place except after Allah, the Almighty, permits it, as proved by their imploring their Lord, upon which He gives them permission and says: "Go and take out anyone you find…" He said: "Then the Almighty will say: 'Now remains My Intercession.'

He will then hold a handful of the Fire, from which He will take out some people whose bodies have been charred." The intercession of Allah, the Almighty, means bestowing His Mercy upon those tormented slaves, so He takes them out of the Fire. The statement: "He will then hold a handful," establishes that Allah, the Almighty, has a grip with which He holds a handful.

There are several texts in the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of His Messenger that establish the attributes of the 'Hand' and 'Grip' for Allah, the Almighty. However, the advocates of distorted, flawed interpretations refuse to accept these attributes and do not believe in them.

They shall soon know that the truth is what Allah said and what His Messenger said: and they will realize that they had gone astray in this regard. Allah, the Almighty, will hold a handful of the Fire from which He will take out some people whose bodies have been charred. They will then be cast into a river called the water of life on the outskirts of Paradise.

Upon that, their flesh and bones and vision that were burnt by the fire will grow again near that river just as a seed grows from the silt carried by flood water. "You have noticed how it grows beside a rock or beside a tree and how the side facing the sun is green while the side facing the shade is white." This means that their flesh will grow swiftly, because the seed carried by the torrent germinates quite fast.

"The side facing the shade is white while the side facing the sun is green" due to its fragility and tenderness. This simile does not necessarily mean that those people will grow with those colors, as some interpreters said: "The side facing Paradise will be white, while the side facing Hell will be green."

Rather, the simile is intended to resemble them to said plant in the swiftness of its growth and its fragility. Therefore, he said that they will come out (of the water of life) like pearls in the purity and beauty of their skin.

"And they will have seals on their necks" on which it is written: The ones emancipated from Hell by the Most Merciful. "Then they will enter Paradise, whereupon the people of Paradise will say: 'These are the people emancipated by the Most Merciful. He has admitted them into Paradise without them having done any good deeds and without sending forth any good (for themselves).'"

This means that though they did not do good deeds in worldly life, they do have the fundamental basis of faith, which consists of testifying that there is no god but Allah and believing in their Messenger.

"Then it will be said to them: 'For you is what you have seen and its equivalent as well.'" Apparently, they will enter vacant places in Paradise; hence, this was said to them.
