ON THE DAY OF RESURRECTION
EVERY ONE IS QUESTIONED BY HIMSELF
Each of them will come to Him on the Day of Rising all alone.
(Qur'an, 19:95)
ON THE DAY OF RESURRECTION
THE MESSENGERS ARE CALLED
TO BEAR WITNESS
When the Messengers' time (for testimony) is appointed—until
what day is that deferred? Until the Day of Decision. (Qur'an,
77:11-13)
PEOPLE WILL BE IN THREE GROUPS
And you will be classed into three: the Companions of the Right:
What of the Companions of the Right? The Companions of the
Left: what of the Companions of the Left? And the Forerunners,
the Forerunners. Those are the Ones Brought Near. (Qur'an, 56:7-
11)
THE BOOK OF THE BELIEVERS IS GIVEN
INTO THEIR RIGHT HANDS
As for him who is given his Book in his right hand, he will say,
'Here, come and read my Book! I counted on meeting my
Reckoning.' He will have a very pleasant life in an elevated
Garden, (Qur'an, 69:19-22)
THE BOOK OF THE UNBELIEVERS
IS GIVEN INTO THEIR LEFT HAND
But as for him who is given his Book in his left hand, he will say,
'If only I had not been given my Book and had not known about
my Reckoning! If only death had really been the end! (Qur'an,
69:25-27)
