The Alarm of Doomsday
English book, p. 94
By Maulana Wahiduddin Khan
The Quran has this to say: “The Final Hour is sure to come, without doubt, but most people do not believe.” (40:59). There is no doubt about the coming of the Qiyamah. The signs tell us that now the time has come very close. Now it is the last hour when a man may seek forgiveness from God and rush to seek refuge in God’s mercy. Only One Chance Now the time has finally come for man to awaken, take lessons from the signs in nature and history, and plan his life in a way that avails him in his post-death period. One who loses this opportunity should know that another such opportunity will not come again. Man has been given only one chance to build his future. It is now up to him to utilise it or lose it forever. Those who make use of this chance have eternal paradise in store for them, while those who fail to make use of this chance will have a fate such as is described in the Bible: “And they will be cast into the furnace of fire. There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth for all eternity.” (Matthew, 13:42)
