The day of Standing

[young@muslim]

Salam..what it will occour...

1. The Proximity of the Sun

The proximity of the sun to creation will be so near that it will be one or two miles away. Mankind will sweat in accordance to their deeds. Amongst them will be those whose sweat will reach their ankles and some will have it up to their mounths. Yet, others will have it anywhere in between the ankles and the mouth.

There will be amongst mankind those who will be protected from the sun. Allaah will shade them in His shade on a day where there will be no shade except His. Amongst them will be the young one who has been raised in obedience of Allaah and the person whose heart is attached to the mosques.

2. The Scales

Allaah will set up the scales so that the deeds of the people can be weighed. If one's scales are heavy then he is amongst the successful ones, and if one's scales are light then he will be amongst those who have lost themselves thereby dwelling in the Fire forever. The scales are real and they have two scales of balance. The Mu'tazilah oppose this and say that there is no reality to the scales and it means justice.

In the Qur`aan, the scales are mentioned in the plural form. In the Sunnah, the scales are mentioned in the plural and singular forms. It is said that the scales are one and it is mentioned in the plural form in reference to that which is being weighed. It is also said that the scales are numerous due to the various nations and individuals and that it is mentioned in the singular form as a class type.

3. The Opening and Distribution of Records

These records are the records of deeds written by the angels for the individual. Allaah Said:

"And for every person We have imposed his fate upon his neck, and we will produce for him on the Day of Resurrection a record which he will encounter spread open. (It will be said,) 'Read your record. Sufficient is yourself against you this day as accountant.'" [17:13,14]

"Then as for he who is given his record in his right hand; he will be judged with an easy account. And return to his people in happiness. But as for he who is given his record behind his back, he will cry out for destruction. And (enter to) burn in a blaze." [84:7-12]

"But as for he who is given his record in his left hand, he will say, "Oh, I wish I had not been given my record." [69:25]

The last two ayaah are understood without contradiction due to the differences in people or that the one who takes his record by his left hand does so from behind his back.

4. The Accountability

It is the accountability of the creation for their deeds. Its manner for the believer is that Allaah takes him in private and makes him affirm his sins then He Says: "I have concealed them for you in the world and I forgive them for you today." [Bukhaaree #2441 & Muslim #2768]

The disbelievers will halt at their deeds and affirm them. Then it will be called out at the heads of those witnessing: "These people denied their Lord. Certainly, the curse of Allaah is upon the wrongdoers." [ibid]

The first matter that the slave will be held accountable for will be for the rights of the prayer. [Abu Dawood #864, at-Tirmidhee #413, an-Nasaa`ee 1/232 & ibn Maajah #1425].The first matter that will be decided between the people will be pertaining to the shedding of blood. [at-Tirmidhee 31396].There will be those who will enter paradise without accountability and they are those who do not seek ruqyah, nor do they practice cauterization, nor believe in omens, and they put their trust upon their Lord: and amongst them is Ukaashah bin Mihsan [Bukhaaree #6541 & Muslim #220].

5. The Reservoir of the Prophet Muhammad (Sallâ Allâhu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam)

The reservoir of the Prophet Muhammad (Sallâ Allâhu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) is amongst the terminals of the qiyaamah. The believer from his ummah will take part in it. Anyone who drinks from it will never thirst again.

Its length is equal to the journey of a month, its width is equal to the journey of a month, its drinking vessels are like the stars of the sky, and its water is whiter than milk and sweeter than honey, and more pleasant than the scent of perfume.

Every prophet wll have a reservoir in which the believers of their ummah will take part in, but the greatest reservoir is the reservoir of the Prophet Muhammad (Sallâ Allâhu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam).

The Mu'tazilah have denied the existence of the reservoir and their saying is rejected due to the many continuous ahaadeeth affirming its existence.

6. The Bridge

It is the bridge set upon the Hellfire. It is finer than a strand of hair and sharper than a sword. [Muslim #183].The bridge has hooks which snatch people in accordance to their deeds. The people will cross the bridge in a manner according to their deeds. Amongst them will be those who cross it like the blink of an eye, or like a flash of lightening, or like the wind, or like a noble horse, or like a camel rider, or racing, or walking, or crawling. There will be some who will be snatched and thrown into hell and punished in accordance to their deeds. [Bukhaaree # 7439 & Muslim #183]

After crossing the bridge, they will come to a place between Paradise and Hell where they will settle accounts between themselves, which will remove animosity and hatred such that they enter Paradise as brothers in lines.

7. The Intercession

Intercession means the mediation for a third party with the intent of attaining a benefit or repelling harm. The intercession of the intercessor will not occur except by Allaah's permission and His approval for the one to be interceded.

The intercession is divided into two (2) categories:

a. Specifically for the Prophet Muhammad (Sallâ Allâhu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam).

b. Generally for the Prophet Muhammad (Sallâ Allâhu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) and other prophets, the truthful ones, the martyrs, and righteous ones.

We cannot enter Jannah with sins we have to be pure Allah swt is so merciful if we repent in this Dunya our sins will be washed away. If you die painfully some sins will be washed, in the grave some get punished their sins are washed away while others will cross the bridge painfully and their sins are washed away. InshAllah it wont come to that we should start repenting now.
