Allah, the Most Exalted, says: "And indeed, the Hour is coming - no doubt about it..." (Surah Al-Hajj - 22:7)
This is not about discussing the possibility of its existence. The ability to create something similar is proof of the ability to create it. It is also not about its occurrence. Allah is the ultimate truth. He confirms the truth that takes place in reality. He confirms it in His revelations to His messengers.
"...and Allah will resurrect those who are in the graves." (Surah Al-Hajj - 22:7)
He will raise them to hold them accountable for their deeds. This negates the idea of the absurdity of man’s existence. It gives life a meaning of truth. It shows the movement of responsibility from the beginning to the end. It suggests that commissioning and reward or punishment are the secret of existence.
This should be present in man’s conscience and mind when he thinks about his existence. He should not regard it as a chance for fun and fooling around. Existence is an embodiment of constant spiritual value. It suggests the humanitarian meaning of life as a straight line of fate.
Man would deeply feel that his belief in Allah is not an intellectual state. It is not like believing in mathematical equations. It is a spiritual state in its very nature. It is reflected in his feelings. It turns into a practical embodiment of faith and the Shariah in his awareness and life.
This is the impact Islam wants the idea of resurrection to leave. It should shape man’s existence and belief. It prevents his existence from being an absurdity. It prevents belief from being a rigid thought. Belief should not be an abstract idea lost in imagination. It should be reflected in the movement of reality. It should become part of an awareness that is open to Allah from the standpoint of responsibility.
