Signs of the End Times

By your Lord, We will surely gather them and the devils, then We will bring them around Hell, kneeling, their eyes darkened with fear.

You will see the wrongdoers fearful of what they have earned, and it will inevitably befall them.

And the true promise draws near, then the disbelievers will stare in horror, saying, “Woe to us! We were heedless of this!”

He only delays them until a Day when eyes will stare in horror.

Rushing forward, heads raised, unable to blink, hearts empty with dread.

Hearts that Day will be shaken

Their eyes cast down.

On that Day, every nursing mother will abandon her infant, every pregnant woman will miscarry, and people will appear intoxicated, though not by drink, but overwhelmed by Allah’s severe punishment.

They will whisper among themselves, “You only remained for ten days.”

We know best what they say, when the most reasonable among them will say, “You only stayed for a day.”

On the Day of Judgment, you will see those who lied against Allah with faces darkened. Is Hell not the proper place for the arrogant?

But whoever comes with evil, their faces will be cast into the Fire. “Are you not repaid except for what you used to do?”

Scorching the skin.

Those who reject Our signs will be cast into a fire, where their skins will be replaced so they may taste the torment again.

On the Day when faces will be bright or dark, those whose faces darken will be told, ‘Did you disbelieve after believing? Taste the punishment for your denial.’

Faces that Day will be downcast

And faces that Day will be clouded.

Covered in gloom.

Their faces will seem darkened, as if covered by night.

Those are the disbelievers, the wicked.

This is a Day when they will not speak

Nor will they be allowed to offer excuses.

Today, We will seal their mouths, and their hands will speak to Us, and their feet will testify to what they used to do.

On the Day when their tongues, hands, and feet will testify against them for what they used to do.

Until, when they reach it, their hearing, sight, and skins will testify against them for what they used to do.

They will say to their skins, “Why do you testify against us?” They will reply, “Allah, who made all things speak, has made us speak. He created you the first time, and to Him you will return.”

You did not conceal yourselves from your hearing, sight, or skins, lest they testify against you. But you assumed that Allah was unaware of much of what you did.

When that Day arrives, no soul will speak except by His permission. Some will be wretched, others blessed.

On the Day when every soul will plead for itself, and every soul will be repaid in full for what it did, and none will be wronged.

As for those who argue about Allah after He has been acknowledged, their argument is baseless with their Lord. Upon them is wrath.

Among people are those who argue about Allah without knowledge, blindly following every rebellious devil.

Yet some still argue about Allah without knowledge, guidance, or an illuminating scripture

Turning arrogantly away to mislead others from Allah’s path.

That is for what your hands have sent ahead.

This is what you used to doubt.”

He will say, “Do not dispute before Me, I had already sent the warning.
