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:

    Beauty depends on size as well as symmetry. No very small animal can be beautiful, for looking at it takes so small a portion of time that the impression of it will be confused. Nor can any very large one, for a whole view of it cannot be had at once, and so there will be no unity and completeness.
    Aristotle (384 B.C.–322 B.C.)

    I am absent altogether too much to be a suitable instructor for a law-student. When a man has reached the age that Mr. Widner has, and has already been doing for himself, my judgment is, that he reads the books for himself without an instructor. That is precisely the way I came to the law.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
