Allah said,
[يَوْمَ تُبَدَّلُ
الاٌّرْضُ غَيْرَ الاٌّرْضِ وَالسَّمَـوَتُ]
(On the Day when the earth will be changed to another earth and so will be
the heavens) `and the creations will be brought before their Lord, and you, O
Muhammad, will witness the criminals who committed the crimes of Kufr and
mischief,'
[مُقْرِنِينَ]
(Muqarranin) bound together, each with his or her like, just as Allah said,
[احْشُرُواْ
الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُواْ وَأَزْوَجَهُمْ]
(Assemble those who did wrong, together with their companions.) [37:22]
[وَإِذَا النُّفُوسُ
زُوِّجَتْ ]
(And when the souls are joined with their bodies.)[81:7],
[وَإَذَآ أُلْقُواْ
مِنْهَا مَكَاناً ضَيِّقاً مُّقَرَّنِينَ دَعَوْاْ هُنَالِكَ ثُبُوراً ]
(And when they shall be thrown into a narrow place thereof, chained together,
they will exclaim therein for destruction.) [25:13] and,
[وَالشَّيَـطِينَ
كُلَّ بَنَّآءٍ وَغَوَّاصٍ - وَءَاخَرِينَ مُقَرَّنِينَ فِى الاٌّصْفَادِ ]
(And also the Shayatin from the Jinn (including) every kind of builder and
diver, and also others bound in fetters.)[38:37-38] Allah said next,
[سَرَابِيلُهُم مِّن
قَطِرَانٍ]
(Their garments will be of Qatiran (pitch),) that is used to coat camels.
Qatadah commented that Qatiran (tar) is one of the fastest objects to catch
fire. Ibn `Abbas used to say that the Qatiran, mentioned in the Ayah, is
dissolved lead. It is possible that this Ayah reads as: (سَرَابِيلُهُمْ مِنْ
قَطِرٍآنٍ) refering to heated lead that has reached tremendous heat, according
to Mujahid, Ikrimah, Sa'id bin Jubayr Al-Hasan and Qatadah. Allah said next,
[وَتَغْشَى
وُجُوهَهُمْ النَّارُ]
(and fire will cover their faces), which is similar to His other statement,
[تَلْفَحُ
وُجُوهَهُمُ النَّارُ وَهُمْ فِيهَا كَـلِحُونَ ]
(The Fire will burn their faces, and therein they will grin, with displaced
lips.)[23:104] Imam Ahmad recorded that Yahya bin Abi Ishaq said that Aban bin
Yazid said that Yahya bin Abi Kathir said that Zayd bin Abi Salam said that Abu
Malik Al-Ash`ari said that the Messenger of Allah said,
«أَرْبَعٌ فِي
أُمَّتِي مِنْ أَمْرِ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ لَا يَتْرُكُونَهُنَّ:الْفَخْرُ
بِالْأَحْسَابِ، وَالطَّعْنُ فِي الْأَنْسَابِ، وَالْاسْتِسْقَاءُ بِالنُّجُومِ،
وَالنِّيَاحَةُ عَلَى الْمَيِّتِ، وَالنَّائِحَةُ إِذَا لَمْ تَتُبْ قَبْلَ
مَوْتِهَا، تُقَامُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَعَلَيْهَا سِرْبَالٌ مِنْ قَطِرَانٍ
وَدِرْعٌ مِنْ جَرَب»
(Four characteristics from the time of Jahiliyyah will remain in my Ummah,
since they will not abandon them: boasting about their family lineage,
discrediting family ties, seeking rain through the stars, and wailing for their
dead. Verily, if she who wails, dies before she repents from her behavior, she
will be resurrected on the Day of Resurrection while wearing a dress of Qatiran
and a cloak of mange.) Muslim collected this Hadith. Allah said next,
[لِيَجْزِىَ اللَّهُ
كُلَّ نَفْسٍ مَّا كَسَبَتْ]
(That Allah may requite each person according to what he has earned.)
meaning, on the Day of Resurrection. Allah said in another Ayah,
[لِيَجْزِىَ
الَّذِينَ أَسَاءُواْ بِمَا عَمِلُواْ]
(That He may requite those who do evil with that which they have done.)
[53:31] Allah said here,
[إِنَّ اللَّهَ
سَرِيعُ الْحِسَابِ]
(Truly, Allah is swift at reckoning.) when He wills to reckon a servants of
His, for He knows everything and nothing ever escapes His observation. Verily,
His power over all of His creation is the same as His power over one creature,
[مَّا خَلْقُكُمْ
وَلاَ بَعْثُكُمْ إِلاَّ كَنَفْسٍ وَحِدَةٍ]
(The creation of you all and the resurrection of you all are only as a single
person. )[31:28] And this is why Mujahid said,
[سَرِيعُ
الْحِسَابِ]
(swift at reckoning), means "keeping count.''
[هَـذَا بَلَـغٌ
لِّلنَّاسِ وَلِيُنذَرُواْ بِهِ وَلِيَعْلَمُواْ أَنَّمَا هُوَ إِلَـهٌ وَاحِدٌ
وَلِيَذَّكَّرَ أُوْلُواْ الأَلْبَـبِ ]
(52. This (Qur'an) is a Message for mankind (and a clear proof against them),
in order that they may be warned thereby, and that they may know that He is the
only One God and that men of understanding may take heed.)
