On the Day of Judgment, the believers will not fear, for Allah prom-
ises that: "My servants, you will feel no fear today; you will know no
sorrow" (Surat az-Zukhruf, 68). However, it will be a very difficult day
for the unbelievers.
The believers will receive their reward for the care and attention that
they paid to winning Allah’s good pleasure, to praying and worship-
ping as commanded, and to heeding Allah as required, in the nicest
manner. Allah will not let them feel the panic, remorse, and sorrow felt
by the unbelievers. He describes the believers’ situation in the Hereafter
in the following terms:

light streaming out in front of them, and to their right: "Good
news for you today of Gardens with rivers flowing under them,
remaining in them timelessly, forever. That is the Great
Victory." (Surat al-Hadid, 12)
