builds shelters. However, on that day, there will not remain a single
secure place where one can take refuge. The unbelievers will receive
no help from Allah. There will also be no other person or authority
who could provide help. In the past, man sought assistance and
guidance from science and technology. But now, all the laws of sci-

ence will have collapsed. Even if advanced technology could enable
one to flee to the remotest point of space, Allah's wrath would find
him there. That is because the Day of Resurrection pervades the en-
tire universe. Not only the earth he lived on securely but also the re-
mote stars will submit to the will of Allah, with the Sun, "compacted
in blackness," and the stars "falling in rapid succession." (Surat at-
Takwir: 1-2)
The despair into which human beings will fall on that day is de-
scribed as follows:

...and the Moon is eclipsed, and the sun and moon are fused
together. On that Day man will say, 'Where can I run?' No in-
deed! There will be no safe place. That Day the only resting
place will be your Lord. (Surat al-Qiyama: 8-12)
