The Last Day

It is an adjectival phrase. It is mentioned in 26 Ayahs and is always paired with believing Allah the Exalted. The adjective: stems from Root: ء خ ر. It signifies relative order of existence of objects with time-flow reference. It refers to existence later-last in time-flow relative to first-prior-earlier existent object; and last to the first, and other to the earlier mentioned object. Nothing in the created realm could be described in absolute terms—void of relativity since they have order of existence.

The events of the Last Day of termination of our universe and life are mentioned by choice of such words that portray them picturesquely enabling us to perceive as if we are watching their footage. The scenes are full of extreme horror.

The Day will start with first blow in the trumpet (39:68). It is the sound only that has energy to disintegrate the whole universe by breaking its equations. On that day all living creature will die natural death, collectively. We will study and watch the happenings of the Last Day in a separate paper captioned "Horrible Events of the Last Day", Allah the Exalted so willing.

Be aware of such persons affiliated with the set of people (in those days Jews) who proclaim;
"We have accepted the belief in Allah the Exalted and the Last Day.";
But the position is that in truth and entailment they are certainly not the believers. [2:08]

Know the information about the people identified-recognized-referenced in time and space as those who willingly accepted-believed;
And those who reverted to identity of Jews, and those who identified themselves as the Nisaa'ra; and those the Sa'bi'een;
Subject to condition that one had willingly accepted belief in Allah the Exalted and the Last Day and had performed-acted as a righteous person;
Thereby, the reward of such people is in wait-prepared for them by Grace of their Sustainer Lord.
Moreover, not at all fear will overshadow-haunt upon them. And they will neither have a cause for grieve. [2:62]

Further be informed that when Iebra'heim [alai'his'slaam] had requested saying: "My Sustainer Lord! render-declare this Town a place that affords peace-law and order, security and safety;
And grant rich sustenance to its inhabitants, those of them who heartily became believers of Allah the Exalted and the Last Day"
Allah the Exalted replied: "However, for reason being the Sustainer Lord of all I will also grant him who refused to accept, for a little period; thereafter [on the Day of Judgment] I will cause him driven to the torment of heated Hell-Prison".
Beware, how vile is this abode-destination to land in. [2:126]

Know you the Christians and Jews, turnabout of your faces confronting the East and the West is not the Virtue-Magnanimous Conduct.

On the contrary; the Virtue-Magnanimous Conduct is of that person: Who consciously and heartily believed in Allah the Exalted and the Last Day; and the Angels; and the Book: one peculiar Book, Qur'aan; and the Chosen and Elevated Allegiants of Allah the Exalted;

And he spent-donated wealth for the sake of attaining approval and appreciation of Allah the Exalted to the near relatives, and the father-orphans, and the destitute, and the wayfarer, and those who seek help, and to get freedom-remission for the slaves-prisoners.

And he steadfastly maintained the Institution of As-sa'laat: Time Bound Protocol of Servitude and allegiance; and he paid Az-Zakaa't; financial liability for economic uplift of society.

Note it; Such are the people who fulfill their commitment - obligation when they have bilaterally contracted;

And they remain coolly perseverant in crisis and financial adversity; and in times of natural calamity.

They are the people who have proved their word-declaration of belief with their acts as true;

And they are the people who are truly cautious, heedful and mindful avoiding unrestrained conduct. [2:177]

Take note; in case of proclamation of husband's firm decision of suspending the Matrimonial Bond in times after menstruation for its eventual revoking: the isolated Wives should honestly and sincerely exercise self restraint from deciding their future course for a time period of multiple menstrual discharges at three successive menstruation periods.
Moreover, it is is not permissible for them-the alienated Wives that they might withhold disclosing that which Allah the Exalted has since created in their Wombs .
They will not withhold this information if they have truly been believing in Allah the Exalted and the Last Day [since this has social-moral as well legal implications, as mentioned elsewhere in the Qur'aan].
Take note; their respective husbands have a greater right in reverting of them: alienated wives during this first time publicly suspension of Nikkah's peculiar feature for a determined period.
This right is subject to the condition if those husbands have decided to straighten/reconcile matters.
Take note; a similar right like the one which husbands have upon them [right of reversion after pronouncement of intended revocation of matrimonial bond] is also the prerogative for such wives [next time, since divorce can happen only twice in the married life] in accordance with the known norms of the society.
However, a priority-precedence in exercise of same right for each of two is to men over them.
Be mindful, Allah the Exalted is Pervasively dominant and the Infinitely Just Supreme Administrator of the created realm, visible and invisible. [2:228]

Take note of the course of conduct in case you husbands have publicly suspended the Marriage- Protocol with wives and thereafter the alienated wives have elapsed-crossed over their respectively determined mandatory restraint period [resulting in disintegration-dissolution of Nikkah].
Thereat, you people-the society should not muscle them: the alienated wives in their uniting in Nikkah-marrying with their husbands whenever they, the disintegrated spouses have struck mutual agreement-understanding in accordance with acceptable norms of society.
This is the course of action that he gets advised by it who amongst you has truly been believing in Allah the Exalted and the Day of Judgment.
You people/society realize it; this advised course of action not to hinder the alienated [divorcee] wife to unite in Nikah-re-marry with her husband is more flourishing and relatively more clean-pious for you the society.
Realize that Allah the Exalted absolutely knows everything while you people do not know about everything. [2:232]

O those/you, who consciously proclaim to have accepted/become believers, listen!
You should not render your gifts of generosity as worthless scum by reproach/pronouncing account of it and by causing embarrassment to the recipient:
Like he who spends his wealth for worldly pomp and show; pleasure of ostentatious display and he in fact believes not in Allah the Exalted nor the Last Day.
Thereby, his similarity is with such rock that a layer of soil is layered upon it.
Thereat, a heavy rainfall fell upon it and washed away the layer of soil whereby the rainfall left it as a naked rock.
Such people have no power to retain permanently that which they have earned.
Be aware, Allah the Exalted does not guide, against their will, the people who persistently and deliberately refuse to accept. [2:264]

They heartily believe in Allah the Exalted and the Last Day.
And they enjoin to act according to the accepted social values-norms and forbid to stay away from the conjectural, unexampled, unauthentic and unverifiable myths.
And they hasten to outstand in doing the best things of benefit, welfare and tranquility for all.
And they are truly the people who are amongst the perfectionists. [3:114]

And Allah does not appreciate and approve those who spend their wherewithal only for pomp and show off to people;
[this evidently reflects that in fact] and they neither believe in Allah nor in the Last Day.
And should Shai'taan be a close comrade of someone-dominating his mind and heart; thereby, he is worst for association. [4:38]

And what burden would it have caused them if they believed in Allah the Exalted and the Last Day?
And what burden would it have caused them if they had spent some of the sustenance Allah the Exalted has bestowed upon them?
And Allah the Exalted is Ever Aware of them. [4:39]

O those/you who proclaim to have accepted-become believers, pay attention;
You people listen and wholeheartedly accept the Word of Allah the Exalted and listen and accept the Word of the Messenger [Sal'lallaa'hoalaih'wa'salam]: Grand Qur'aan;
And accept the word-promulgations of the holders of authority administering the affairs in society.
Thereat, if you mutually wrangled with men of authority-rulers in some matter; thereby, you are directed to resolve it by reverting to the word of Allah the Exalted and the Messenger: evaluate and decide according to dictate of Grand Qur'aan; if you people have truly been believing in Allah the Exalted and the Last Day.
This is the best course; and in ultimate analysis-outcome it is most appropriate and balanced. [4:59]

O those/you who proclaim to have accepted-become believers, listen;
Incline yourselves to heartily believe in Allah the Exalted and the Messenger of Him; Muhammad [Sal'lallaa'hoalaih'wa'salam];
And in the Book having peculiarity that He the Exalted has gradually sent it upon His Messenger, Muhammad [Sal'lallaa'hoalaih'wa'salam];
And in the Book whose peculiarity is that He the Exalted had compositely sent in timeline before it: Qur'aan [In'jeel to Easa علیہ السلام People from amongst the Jews on becoming believer are also required to accept and believe in In'jeel which was sent and has been affirmed by Grand Qur'aan]
Take note; Should someone refuse to believe in Allah the Exalted; and His Angels; and all the Books and all the Messengers of Him; and the Last Day:
Thereat, he certainly perished-lost himself to the far destructive end of neglectfulness. [4:136]

But as for the the people amongst them who have in-depth objective knowledge; and the believers:
They consciously and willingly accept-believe in that: Grand Qur'aan, which has been sent to you the Messenger [Muhammad Sal'lallaa'hoalaih'wa'salam]. And they believe in that which were revealed by Allah the Exalted in times before you the Messenger [Muhammad Sal'lallaa'hoalaih'wa'salam].
And they are steadfastly maintainers of the Institution of As-sa'laat: Time Bound Formal Rite demonstrating Servitude and allegiance;
And they are willing payers of Az-zaka'at: financial liability for economic uplift of society;
And they truly believe in Allah the Exalted and the Last Day.
The aforementioned are the people whom We will keep rewarding abundantly and magnificently. [4:162]

The fact remains that those who claim to have accepted-believed;
And those who had reverted to identity of Jews; and the Sa'bi'ouen and Nisaa'ra for whom the verdict is the same:
Subject to whoever had willingly accepted belief in Allah the Exalted and the Last Day and had performed deeds of righteous import;
Its consequence is that not at all fear will overshadow-haunt upon them.
And they will neither have a cause for grieve." [5:69]

Indeed only he will populate and maintain the Mosques of Allah the Exalted who believed in Allah the Exalted and the Last Day;
And he maintained Ass-sa'laat: Time bound protocol of allegiance and servitude to Allah the Exalted and paid Az-zaka'at: financial liability for economic uplift of society;
And he was afraid of none except Allah the Exalted.
Resultantly, perhaps such are the people that might hopefully remain aright guided. [who spend every moment of their life in accordance with the Book of Allah]. [9:18]

Have you declared people providing water to pilgrims and maintaining the Sacred Mosque around Ka'aba are:
Like those who believed in Allah the Exalted and the Last Day and exerted utmost in the cause of Allah the Exalted?
They equate not with each other in the consideration and judgment of Allah the Exalted.
Be mindful, Allah the Exalted does not guide [against their will/considered decision] people who are mischievous-distorters and substitute facts with conjectures-myths-concocted stories. [9:19]

You people are directed to confront war with those who believe neither in Allah the Exalted nor in the Last Day;
And nor they treat that unlawful what Allah the Exalted and His Messenger has declared unlawful;
And nor they acknowledge the Prescribed Monotheist Truthful Code of those who were earlier given the Book;
Confront war with them until they might pay the protection charge/tribute compliantly upon having been defeated/subdued. [9:29]

Know it, they do not seek exemption from you the Messenger [Sal'lallaa'hoalaih'wa'salam] that they might not strive with their wealth and physical participation who heartily believe in Allah the Exalted and the Last Day.
And Allah the Exalted is always fully aware of those people who endeavor to remain cautious, avoiding conduct inspired and governed by emotion, in reverence and fear of Allah the Exalted. [9:44]

The fact is that only they feign seeking your permission for exemption to proceed for war who in fact believe not in Allah the Exalted and the Last Day: Muna'fi'qeen. And their hearts are self-irked suffering duplicity.
The natural consequence is that they, in their self-created state of irksome duplicity of thought, keep vacillating. [9:45]

And some amongst the Arabized foreign settlers sincerely believes in Allah the Exalted and the Last Day-the Hereafter;
And he considers what he spends contributing to welfare of others as source of successive nearness in the sight of Allah the Exalted; and for attaining the approval and appreciations of the Messenger [Muhammad Sal'lallaa'hoalaih'wa'salam].
Yes, be encouraged, it is certainly a source of attaining nearness for them with Allah the Exalted and His Messenger.
Allah the Exalted will enter them in His Umbrella of Mercy.
It is a fact that Allah the Exalted is repeatedly Forgiving-Overlooking; the fountain of Mercy. [9:99]

The woman and the man held guilty of charge of consented illicit sexual-intercourse by the competent court of law: thereby, you the state-executive authority are directed to flog each of them two; the manner of execution is flogging one hundred times, the object being restricted to the skin: not excoriation.
And softness of heart - feeling of sympathy for both of them should not seize you people in executing the Code of Conduct prescribed by Allah the Exalted, if you were truly believing in Allah the Exalted and the Last Day.
And a group of believers should observe the punishment of both of them. [24:02]

And Our Majesty had indeed deputed their brother Sho'aib [alai'his'slaam] as the Messenger towards the nation by the name Mad'yan.
Thereby, [for reason of their idol worshipping] he said, "O my nation! "You are directed to express servitude, subjection and allegiance for Allah the Exalted.
And you people expect the Last Day;
And you should not, like mischief-doers, create intellectual distortions-conjectural myths-disquiet in the society". [29:36]

Certainly there is a role model of excellently balanced and appropriate conduct in the Person of the Messenger of Allah the Exalted—Muhammad [Sal'lallaa'hoalaih'wa'salam];
For him who has habit of cautiously keeping hope in Allah and the Last Day;
And he remained mindful and mentioned Allah the Exalted quiet frequently/most of the time. [33:21]

You will never find a people who believe in Allah the Exalted and the Last Day:
Loving the one who inclined himself to obstruct and hinder [the Path of] Allah the Exalted and His Messenger [Sal'lallaa'hoalaih'wa'salam]
Notwithstanding that they used to their fathers or their sons or their brothers or their kindred.
They are the people in whose hearts He has inscribed the belief
And He has strengthened them with "the Essence of Our Will/Decision/Word of Command-Grand Qur'aan" from Him
And He will enter them in
The Gardens with canals of water flowing side by wherein they shall reside perpetually,
Allah the Exalted has appreciated and approved them; and they are admiringly happy with Allah the Exalted.
These people are the party of Allah,
Beware that indeed the members of the party of Allah are the reapers of fruit of success. [58:22]

Certainly there has been for you people an excellently balanced and appropriate example of conduct in them to emulate [in connection with your relations],
For the one who has been cautiously keeping hope in Allah the Exalted and the Last Day.
And whoever purposely causes himself to turn away, thereat it should be known that indeed Allah is the One Who is eternally the Absolutely Independent, eternally the focus of Glory and Praise. [60:06]

Consequently when they have crossed over—accomplished their respective appointed duration:
Thereat you husbands cause uniting them in your fold in accordance with known norms of society—
Or you apart them respectfully, in accordance with known norms of society.
And you make it [remarriage/reunion or separation] witnessed by two persons of just minded repute from amongst you.
And you people establish the testimony for Allah the Exalted.
With this course/conduct/attitude is advised the one amongst you people who has been believing in Allah the Exalted and the Last Day.
And whoever keeps himself cautious, heedful and mindful avoiding unrestrained conduct for reverence and fear of Allah the Exalted—
He will make for him a way out. [65:02]
