مَّنۡ أَعۡرَضَ عَنۡهُ فَإِنَّهُۥ يَحۡمِلُ يَوۡمَ ٱلۡقِيَٰمَةِ وِزۡرًا
Whoever turns away from it - then indeed, he will bear on the Day of Resurrection a burden
The fate which befell those who denied the truth brought into this world by the prophets was but a partial demonstration of God’s judgement, which will only fully unfold itself on the Day of Judgement and be applicable to all humanity. The Quran is a reminder of this very reality. When a person ignores the truth in this world, it seems to be a mere triviality, but in the Hereafter, this action of his will become a heavy burden upon him. When the divine trumpet (sur) announces that the period of trial is over, people will suddenly find themselves in another world. When it becomes clear to man that the world which he took to be his own was in fact God’s world, he will be so terror-stricken that his entire being will undergo a transformation, and his face will be a reflection of it. In the present world, man ignores the life hereafter, as if it were something very distant. But, after the advent of Doomsday, he will feel that the life of this world was nothing but a few numbered days, and the entire long life thereafter, stretching out before him into eternity, is the actual and ultimate reality.
قیامت میں موجودہ زمین ایک وسیع اور ہموار فرش کی مانند بنادی جائے گی۔ اس وقت یہاںنہ پہاڑوں کی بلندیاں ہوں گی اور نہ دریاؤں کی گہرائیاں۔ تمام انسان دوبارہ پیدا ہوکر اس زمین پر جمع کيے جائیں گے۔ دنیا میں خدا کی آواز خدا کے داعی کی زبان سے بلند ہوتی ہے تو لوگ اس کو نظر انداز کردیتے ہیں۔ مگر قیامت میں جب خدا براہِ راست لوگوں کو پکارے گا تو سارے انسان کسی ادنیٰ انحراف کے بغیر اس کی آواز کی طرف چل پڑیںگے۔ لوگوں پر اس قدر ہول طاری ہوگا کہ کسی کی زبان سے کوئی لفظ نہیں نکلے گا۔ لوگوں کے چلنے کی سرسراہٹ کے سوا کوئی اور آواز نہ ہوگی جو اس وقت لوگوں کو سنائی دے۔
