The Resurrection The Islamic Propagation Office in Rabwah Published by: The Islamic Propagation Office in Rabwah بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم Preface All praise be to Allah, The Lord of The Day of Judgment, and may the Peace and may the Peace and Blessings of Allah be upon the seal of all prophets, Muhammad ibn Abdullah, and upon his companions and followers till the Day of Judgment. We all believe that our life has an end, and nothing is eternal ex- (1).cept Allah I }كُلُّ مَنْ عَلَيْهَا فَانٍ * وَيَبْقَى وَجْهُ رَبِّكَ ذُو الْجَلَالِ وَالْإِكْرَامِ { “Whatsoever is on it (the Earth) will perish. * And the Face of your Lord, full of Majesty and Honour, will remain forever.” [Surah Ar-Rahmaan (55):26-27] It is better for all of us to ponder deeply about out future and about our eternal life which is everlasting. We are expected to devote some time in this to ponder what will occur in the life to come. The Day of Judgment is the day on which all creation will meet, fully and fairly, the reward for how they conducted themselves in this life. It is a day which is different from all other days. It will come, sooner or later. But some questions must be raised: Are we fully prepared and aware of this day? What are its signs and hor- rors? When will it come? What will it look like? Sheikh Muhammad bin 'Uthaymeen, may Allah have mercy on him, gave a sermon describing the signs and horrors of such a day. May AllahIsave us and make us steadfast on the right path till the Day of Judgment. ـــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــ (1) Subhaanahu wa Ta'alaa: trans. ‘Most Glorified [May Allah be exalted above all what the disbelievers attribute to Him] and Most High is He’. Biography Abu 'Abdullah, Muhammad ibn Saalih ibn Muhammad ibn 'Uthaymeen at-Tamimi an-Najdi was born in the city of 'Unayzah, in the region of al-Qaseem on 27"th" day of Ramadan, in the year 1347 A.H./1926 C.E. into a religious family. He received his religious education from many prominent school- ars, from them Sheikh 'Abdur-Rahmaan as-Sa'di, Sheikh Mu- hammad Ameen ash-Shinqeeti and Sheikh 'Abdul-'Azeez ibn Baaz. He was from among those who served Islam without any type of religious prejudice and kept himself away from the limita- tions of blind following. He was distinguished for his great exer- tion in religious matters and analogical deductions. In giving reli- gious verdicts, like Sheikh ibn Baaz, his fataawaa (verdicts) were based on evidence from the Qur'aan and Sunnah.(2) He taught reli- gious fundamentals in the Faculty of Sharee'ah at Imaam Mu- hammad ibn Sa'ud Islamic University in al-Qaseem. He was also a member of the Council of Senior Scholars in Saudi Arabia. During the final years of his life, he suffered greatly from cancer. He undertook a trip to America for chemotherapy to alleviate his sickness, but due to personal reasons and other circumstances, he chose to forego the treatment and was admitted to King Faisal SpecialistHospital in Jeddah on 3 Shawwal/30 December. He passed away on Wednesday, the 15"th" of Shawwaal in the year 1421 A.H/10 January 2001 C.E. at the age of 74. May Allah I have mercy upon his soul, Ameen. ـــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــ (2) The Sunnah of the Prophet r is that path which he followed. It could also denote something established to have been practiced by the Prophet r, con- trary to bid'ah, or innovation. At other times, it used to denote ahaadeeth. Introduction Judgment Day is just a blink away. We live and we die, and then we will inevitably be resurrected. The step from death to resurrec- tion is indeed small, but no matter how difficult death may be, the Day of Resurrection is far worse. So what lies in between?
