It's not 100 light years away from now

Bismillah al-rahman al-rahim

Semoga segala perkataan, perbuatan dan buah fikiran kita ini dari ilham Allah, bukan atas dorongan nafsu dan godaan syaitan semata-mata, InsyaAllah.

Muhasabah diri, walaupun hanya renungan sejenak selepas hari yang sangat panjang membolehkan kita sebagai manusia yang sentiasa lalai ini, kembali kepada track yang sebenar. Pernahkah kita, tatkala membaca ayat-ayat Allah SWT, bergetar jiwa, timbul rasa gerun dan tunduk padaNya? SubhanaAllah, jika perasaan ini hadir, andalah orang yang jiwanya masih hidup dan mampu menghidupkan jiwa-jiwa yang lain.

When I was small, I recalled my ustazah briefly taught the class about the hostile situations of the yaumul hisab. Little did I know about how tremendous will the situation be at that time. I remained adamant to the notion that the Day is still far away from my generation. As I looked up at the window, I saw the sun shone brilliantly and I was wondering, if the sunlight went off, there will be night forever and I do not have to go to school anymore. Little childish Izzati barely hated school because teachers told her what she supposed to know, not what she wanted to know.

As I grew older, I started to understand, even not entirely, this very crucial verse from Allah SWT:

Do you not know that Allah knows what is in the heaven and earth? Indeed, that is in a Record. Indeed that, for Allah is easy. [22:70]

Allah gave us clue, whatever we wanted to know, Quran is the answer.

I attended many lectures ranging from Physics, Geology and my all-time favorite, Astronomy. Those lecturers were brilliant. They found the dark matter, the birth of the stars, this and that, but they failed to find the mastermind behind all of these. They don’t find God.

Isn’t this ironic? They just mathematically proved that the universe is just like a flat 2D scroll paper, but Allah SWT, through His messenger told us 1400++ years ago about this:

The Day when we will fold the heaven like the folding of a written sheet for the records. As we began the first creation, We will repeat it. That is a promise binding upon Us. Indeed, we will do it. [21:104]

In addition, Allah SWT said in another verse:

On a Day when their tongues, their hands and their feet will bear witness against them as to what they used to do. [24:24]

During the folding of the universe (scrolling), a phenomenon called “Time Reversal” will happen. People will go back in time as though as they came back from the future BUT, nothing they can do to amend their past mistakes. At that time, all of our senses will be the witness for what we have done before.

It is really scary to imagine when we refuse to do something, we have no gut to stop whatever we are doing. Life then, will be just like a movie. When we die, that will be the end. In anything that we do, we have to remember, our decisions will be permanently recorded in our movie. We are also unable to foresee the future, neither we know when we are going to die. Myself too, might not have the chance to live in the next seconds. Therefore, should we have something that we want to change in life, of course for the better, do not wait, do not hold back. Do not wait until we “really” get prepared, because we do not know how many times we have left in this world.    

The Day is not 100 light away from us. Fear Allah. Divine secrets are utterly His.

Indeed, those who dispute concerning the signs of Allah without any authority having come to them -  there is not within their breasts except pride, [the extent of] which they cannot reach. So seek refuge in Allah. Indeed, it is He who is the Hearing, the Seeing. [40:56]

Wallahu’alam
