Evening Reminder. Monday. The Justice of Judgement Day A brief insight into the question as to why there is a Day of Judgement, and what is the end of religions other than Islam. There is the saying that; “You never get a second chance to make a good first impression” How can we justify an afterlife? Well its simple, where else can the injustices of this life be rectified, if not in an afterlife? What we perceive to be injustices in this worldly life would be a poor reflection upon God’s sense of fairness, if these “injustices” aren’t offset by appropriate rewards and punishments in the hereafter. Some of the worst of the worst enjoy some of the most luxurious lives. Meanwhile, some of the best of the best suffer terribly. For example, which prophet had an easy time of it? Which prophets lived pampered lives of splendour to match that of a mafia boss, drug lord or tyrannical ruler, either of our time or of theirs? If we are to trust in the mercy and justice of our Creator we cannot believe He restricts the rewards of piety and the punishments of transgression to this worldly life, for the inequities of life are clear. So there will be a Day of Judgement, we’ll all be there, and it will be a bad time to start thinking about changing our lives for the better. Because … now stay with me here … because our lives will be, in a word, over. It’ll be too late. The record of our deeds will be done. And there’s no going back. Mankind will be sorted according to beliefs and deeds. The faithful will be vindicated, the disbelievers condemned, the transgressors (if not forgiven) punished according to the severity of their sins. To be continued tomorrow in shaa Allah. May Allah forgive us and purify our hearts. Aameen.
