AFTER THE UNIVERSE
DIES
n the Day of Judgment, everyone will see reality
clearly. The unbelievers will be face to face with the
O reality of the Hereafter in which they never
believed, refrained from pondering, and rejected. They will see
the consequences of their error and will desperately seek a way
out; however, they will not find one. They will have met a
disastrous end and will be full of remorse. The Qur'an relates
their psychology in great detail.
Confronted by the Day of Judgment, whether they like it or
not, they will witness the unique events after the trumpet is
sounded: the devastation of Earth and the heavens, and the
destruction of the universe and all of its contents. After this is
accomplished, Allah will recreate the heavens, the world, and
humanity anew. Allah, Who created the heavens, Earth, and all
the worlds, certainly has the power to create the likes of them,
for:
Do they not see that Allah, Who created the heavens and
Earth, has the power to create the like of them, and has
appointed fixed terms for them of which there is no doubt?
