The Rulers of Heaven
They say that there is going to be a great earthquake on the Doomsday. Some other features are also mentioned for the Day in At-takwir Surah. Events like movement of mountains, flood in the whole world, and darkening of the moon and the star, etc have been mentioned as signs for the Doomsday. Some of these changes mark the beginning of the life after, but according to Quran both the happenings and the conditions of the Day are horrifying.
What could we do to get rid of this fear, to be safe, and to secure our position on the Doomsday?
Conditions of the Doomsday are Indescribable
It is harder than what one could imagine. God does not call something ‘huge’ without a reason. He describes this great word small and trivial. But he talks about a ‘great event’ when it gets to the Doomsday and describes it as a huge earthquake.
In many verses and sayings we have been warned about the conditions of the world after. At the same time, the solutions and the ways to escape from the horrible events are also given to us.
According to the sayings of Imams, there are specific things that if people do in their lives, they won’t be afflicted with the problems and difficulties in the world after; but on the contrary, they will become the rulers of the world after, just like the kings; and their place will be secured in Heaven.
