The fate, which will be theirs in the world of tomorrow, is summed up in the Book of God thus: He that gives no heed to My warning shall have a woeful living (in the Hereafter), and will come to Us blind on the Day of Resurrection. ‘Lord,’ he will say, ‘Why have you brought me blind before You, while I was blessed with sight during my life-time?’ We will answer, ‘In like manner, Our signs came to you but you forgot them.
