Book Name:Farooq-e-A’zam’s Fear of Allah

جَلا دے نہ نارِ جہنّم کرم ہو    پئے بادشاہِ اُمَم یا الٰہی

مجھے نارِ دوزخ سے ڈر لگ رہا ہے      ہو مجھ ناتُواں پر کرم یا الٰہی

تُو عطّؔار کو بے سبب بخش مَولٰی         کرم کر کرم کر کرم یا الٰہی

 

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب              صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

 

Dear Islamic brothers! Have you noticed! How terrifying scene will it be when the Hell is brought on the Judgement Day? Just imagine! Now the sun is at a distance of four thousand years from us, and it has its back towards us but on the Day of Judgement, the sun will be only at a distance of one and a quarter miles and its front will be facing us. On that day, due to its heat, brains will boil and people will be sweating so excessively that the sweat will be soaked through seventy yards into the earth. The sweat that the earth is not able to absorb will start to rise. Some people will have it rise up to their ankles, some will have it up to their knees, for some it will rise up to their backs or up to their chests. For yet others it will rise up to their necks and for the non-believers, their sweat will rise up to their mouths and will get hold of them like reins. They will be paddling into it. In this state of [extreme] heat, the level of thirst one can feel is beyond words. Tongues will shrink like thorns and some people’s tongues will be sticking out with their hearts stuck in their throats. Their intensity of punishment will be dependent upon the severity of sins. Even though the punishment will be so severe, there will be no support or help. A brother will run away from his brother, parents will run away from their children, and members of the whole family will try to escape from each other. Every individual will be worried about himself and nobody will help anyone else? (Gheebat ki Tabah Kariyan, pp. 157)

At this time, despite all these difficulties, the Hell will also be brought. The hearts of the creation will be trembled with thunder. In short, the hardships of the Judgement Day will be such that even big righteous deeds will also be felt less; very wise people will lose their wisdom even the blessed Ambiya عَـلَـيْـهِمُ الـصَّلٰوةُ وَالـسَّـلَام who are certainly forgiven, will also have concern for themselves. Just ponder! What will happen to us at that critical time?
