Islamic View of The Last Judgment

Islamic View Of The Last Judgment

In Islam, Yawm al-Qiyāmah (Arabic: يوم القيامة‎ "the Day of Resurrection") or Yawm ad-Din (Arabic: يوم الدين‎ "the Day of Judgment") is believed to be God's final assessment of humanity, with annihilation of all life, resurrection, and judgment.

The time of the event is not specified, although there are major and minor signs which happen with Qiyamah at the end of time. Many earlier Qur'anic verses contain the motif of the impending the Day of Resurrection. The 75th Sura of the Qur'an, "al-Qiyama", has as its main subject the resurrection.

Famous quotes containing the words view and/or judgment:

    The creation of a world view is the work of a generation rather than of an individual, but we each of us, for better or for worse, add our brick to the edifice.
    John Dos Passos (1896–1970)

    First follow Nature, and your judgment frame
    By her just standard, which is still the same;
    Unerring Nature, still divinely bright,
    One clear, unchanged, and universal light,
    Life, force, and beauty must to all impart,
    At once the source, and end, and test of art.
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
