Islamic eschatology is the aspect of Islamic theology incorporating the afterlife and the end of the world, with special emphasis in the Qur'an on the inevitability of resurrection, the final judgment, and the eternal division of the righteous and the wicked, which take place on the Day of Resurrection



ﺃَﻟَﺎ ﻳَﻈُﻦُّ ﺃُﻭْﻟَﺌِﻚَ ﺃَﻧَّﻬُﻢ ﻣَّﺒْﻌُﻮﺛُﻮﻥَ * ﻟِﻴَﻮْﻡٍ
ﻋَﻈِﻴﻢٍ * ﻳَﻮْﻡَ ﻳَﻘُﻮﻡُ ﺍﻟﻨَّﺎﺱُ ﻟِﺮَﺏِّ ﺍﻟْﻌَﺎﻟَﻤِﻴﻦَ
Do not these think that they shall be raised again, for a
mighty day, the day on which men shall stand before the
Lord of the worlds? (83:4-6)

ﺍﻟﻠَّﻪُ ﻟَﺂ ﺇِﻟَﻪَ ﺇِﻟَّﺎ ﻫُﻮَ ﻟَﻴَﺠْﻤَﻌَﻨَّﻜُﻢْ ﺇِﻟَﻰ ﻳَﻮْﻡِ
ﺍﻟْﻘِﻴَﻤَﺔِ ﻟَﺎ ﺭَﻳْﺐَ ﻓِﻴﻪِ ﻭَﻣَﻦْ ﺃَﺻْﺪَﻕُ ﻣِﻦَ ﺍﻟﻠَّﻪِ
ﺣَﺪِﻳﺜﺎً
Allah, there is no god but He – He will most certainly gather
you together on the resurrection day, there is no doubt in it;
and who is more true in word than Allah? (4:87)

PART 2

Islamic scripture has a plethora of content on the Last Judgment and the tribulation associated with it. The two sources which are primarily referred to eschatology the topic of Islamic eschatology are the Quran itself and the hadith, or accounts of the actions and sayings of Prophet. Muhammad during his lifetime. One of the functions of the Quran as it relates to eschatology and the Day of Judgement is to serve as a reminder of Allah's intentions
for humanity and as a warning for those who do not abide.

19:66 And says man: When I am dead, shall I truly
be brought forth alive?
19:67 Does not man remember that We created
him before, when he was nothing?

Abdullah b. 'Umar reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)
saying:
Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, would fold the Heavens
on the Day of Judgment and then He would place them on
His right hand and say: I am the Lord; where are the
haughty and where are the proud (today)? He would fold

Lord; where are the haughty and where are the proud
