The Regret Felt On
The Judgment Day
The Trumpet is blown and those in the heavens and those in
the earth swoon away, except those Allah wills. Then it is
blown a second time and at once they stand upright, looking
on. And the earth shines with the Pure Light of its Lord; the
Book is put in place; the Prophets and witnesses are brought;
it is decided between them with the truth; and they are not
wronged. Every self is repaid in full for what it did. He
knows best what they are doing. (Surat az-Zumar: 68-70)
All who have ever lived on earth are resurrected on
the Day of Judgment. The moment of resurrection is a
perplexing one for unbelievers. Allah relates the fearful
and bewildered conversations among unbelievers at the
moment of resurrection in the Qur'an as follows:
They will say, "Alas for us! Who has raised us from our
resting-place? This is what the All-Merciful promised
us. The Messengers were telling the truth." (Surah Ya
Sin: 52)
