EVERYONE IN THE HEAVENS
           AND EARTH IS TERRIFIED
           On the Day the Trumpet is blown and everyone in the heavens
           and everyone on the earth is terrified— except those Allah wills,
           everyone will come to Him abject. (Qur'an, 27:87)

           THE UNBELIEVERS ARE RECOGNIZED
           BY THEIR FACES
           The evildoers will be recognised by their mark and seized by their
           forelocks and their feet. (Qur'an, 55:41)
           Their eyes will be downcast, darkened by debasement; for they
           were called on to prostrate when they were in full possession of
           their faculties. (Qur'an, 68:43)
           On the Day the Trumpet is blown— and We will gather the
           evildoers sightless on that Day.(Qur'an, 20:102)


           THE UNBELIEVERS HAVE DARK FACES
           On the Day of Rising you will see those who lied against Allah
           with their faces blackened. Do not the arrogant have a dwelling
           place in Hell? (Qur'an, 39:60)


           THEIR EYES ARE TRANSFIXED
           (O Muhammad!) Do not consider Allah to be unaware of what the
           wrongdoers perpetrate. He is merely deferring them to a Day on
           which their sight will be transfixed, rushing headlong – heads
           back, eyes vacant, hearts hollow. (Qur'an, 14:42-43)

           THE BELIEVERS ARE RECOGNIZED
           BY THEIR LIGHT
           That Day some faces will be radiant, laughing, rejoicing (Qur'an,
           80:38-39)
