RESURRECTION

 

After Allah (SWT) has destroyed all creatures and nothing remains but His Noble Face, He will resurrect people for reckoning. Resurrection is the physical renewal and the re-creation of people on the Day of bringing to life again. Allah (SWT) describing the scene of Resurrection, says: “The Trumpet will be sounded, then behold! From the graves they will rush forth to their Lord. They will say: ‘Woe to us! Who has raised us up from our beds of repose? (A voice will say): ‘This is what the Most Gracious had promised, and true was the word of the Messenger. It will not be but a single blast, when lo! They will all be brought up before us.’” (XXXVI: 51-53)

 

Man will be resurrected on the Day of Resurrection from the little bone at the end of the coccyx (originated from the primitive streak), when Allah sends down rain and let it grow, as does a bean. Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) said: “Then (after this period) Allah will send water from the sky and then the dead bodies will grow like vegetation grows. There is nothing of the human body that does not decay except one bone; that is the little bone at the end of the coccyx (originated from the primitive streak) of which the human body will be recreated on the Day of Resurrection."[7]&[8]
