Page 71 - Unawareness: A Sly Threat

CONCLUSION

As we have said throughout this book, being caught up
in unawareness is one of the main factors that lead people to
destruction. Unaware people may think that everything is
going well and that they are living a comfortable life. The
surest sign of this is their misguided idea that they know
everything and do everything correctly. However, their
unawareness will end in Allah’s presence in the Hereafter:

(On the Day of Threat, they will be told:) “You were
heedless of this, so We have stripped you of your cov-
ering and today your sight is sharp.” (Surah Qaf: 22)

Now they will begin to clearly see the truths that they
always ignored and refused to believe while alive. They will
encounter the punishment that the believers had told them
about but to which they never paid any attention. On that day,
they will want to be destroyed or return to the world so that
they can try to win His pleasure. But the time for such rethink-
ing is now past; there is no place for them except among the
people of Hell in eternal punishment:
But when the eyesight is dazzled, the Moon is eclipsed,
and the Sun and Moon are fused together, on that Day
humanity will ask: “To where can I run?” No indeed!
