....THE FIELD OF RESURRECTION (HASHR FIELD)
....The Hashr field is the place of gathering on the Day of Judgment.
....The place where all human beings and other creatures will gather before Allah Almighty for judgment when Hazrat Israfil is ordered to blow the trumpet for the second time is called the Hashr field (the field of resurrection) and the judgment in which Allah Almighty will give an account of their deeds is called the reckoning (account).
....The field of resurrection will be situated on the least bloody part of the Earth, not the temporary Earth but the real Earth, a pure white, vast, and a quantitatively and qualitatively transformed one.
....Allah Almighty says:
...."One day the Earth will be changed to a different Earth, and so will be the Heavens" (Ibrahim, 48)
....In the new arrangement of the Earth and Heavens, the Earth and the Sun will be very close to one another; and this field of hashr will be under the intense heat of the Sun, which will be directly overhead.

....The Day of Hashr will be a hard day!
....Allah Almighty says:
...."Finally, when the Trumpet is sounded, That will be- that Day - a Day of Distress,- Far from easy for those without Faith." (Muddaththir, 8-9-10)
....When Hazrat Israfil blows the trumpet for the second time, this will be a beginning of a new universe, and;
...."The Day that the wrong-doer will bite at his hands, he will say, "Oh! would that I had taken a (straight) path with the Messenger?!" (Furqan, 27)
....The sinners, raised from their graves, will go insane with the terror of the Judgment Day and they will even eat their hands with a crackling sound.
....And Allah Almighty says:
...."On that Day will they follow the Caller (straight): no crookedness (can they show) him: all sounds shall humble themselves in the Presence of (Allah) Most Gracious: nothing shalt thou hear but the tramp of their feet (as they march)." (Ta-Ha, 108)
....When Hazrat Israfil blows the trumpet for the second time and invites all creatures by the will of Allah Almighty, all will attend to the gathering in the field of resurrection, all their voices shall be low before the Beneficent Allah so that aught but a soft sound shall be heard.
....The Gathering of People in the Field of Hashr
....Allah Almighty says:
...."The trumpet shall be sounded, when behold! From the

sepulchers (men) will rush forth to their Lord!"
(Ya-Seen, 51)
....When Hazrat Israfil blows the trumpet for the second time, and the Earth and Heavens tremble, people will go to the field of resurrection and say:
...."Ah! Woe unto us! Who hath raised us up from our beds of repose?"... (A voice will say :) "This is what (Allah) Most Gracious had promised. And true was the word of the messengers!" (Ya-Seen, 52)
....When the human beings gathered; Allah Almighty will say:
...."And certainly you have come to Us alone as We created you at first, and you have left behind your backs the things which We gave you" (Anaam, 94)
....On this horrible day, Allah Almighty will address us, the people, in the following way:
...."O people! You come to Me alone, naked, and one by one as I created you at first. You left behind your possessions.
....Where are those who have unsatisfied passion for the world, and those who attack each other?
....Where are your houses, your villas, your comfortable, luxury goods?
....Where are your cars, yachts, and private airplanes?
....You left your cash, gold, and dresses in the world. Your burial cloth has decayed, and now you are alone and naked before My presence.
....Hell is Made to Appear
....Allah Almighty says:

...."And Hell is brought near that day; on that day man will remember, but how will the remembrance (then avail him)?" (Fajr, 23)
....The human beings, animals, jinn, and devils will be brought to the field of hashr. This will be a hard and terrible day. The intense heat of the Sun will make them burn red, crave for water, and emit a putrid smell.
....People will be distressed by the crush; hot droplets will exude from their bodies.
....After a sorrowful waiting, Hell will be brought forth with terrific explosions, scattering its fire. There will be in such extreme awe that the mother will flee from her daughter, brother from brother, and couples from each other. Remembering their sins that they have committed in the past, people will greatly regret, but it will be too late.
....The Angels will be present in the field of hashr, as well.
....Allah Almighty says:
...."And your Lord comes and (also) the angels in ranks" (Fajr,22)
....While people are feeling so helpless and regretful of their sins, there will be explosion in the sky, and the angels of the first rank will be brought to the field of hashr. Their number will be ten times greater than the number of people and jinn, and they will encircle those in the field of hashr completely.
....Then the explosions will continue. With every explosion, the angels in the next rank will come and assemble in rows for the judgment.

....Allah Almighty says:
...."The day on which the spirit (Gabriel) and the angels shall stand in ranks; they shall not speak except he whom the Beneficent Allah permits and who speaks the right thing." (Naba, 38)
....In the field of hashr, the wolf, the lamb, human beings, jinns, and devils will all be in one place. Their voices will be low. The hearts will pound and flutter. Only those who will be granted permission to talk will talk.
....The Distribution of the Book of Deeds
....Allah Almighty says:
...."Then as for him who is given his book in his right hand, he will say: Lo! read my book." (Haaqqa, 19)
....After this sorrowful waiting, the books of deeds will be distributed and the believers will be given their books in their right hands. With the joy of children who bring home perfect grades, those who are given their books in their right hands will happily show their books to their relatives and say: "Here is my book."
....When it comes to those who have been given their books in their left hands:
....Allah Almighty says:
...."And as for him who is given his book in his left hand he shall say: O would that my book had never been given me: And I had not known what my account was." (Haaqqa, 25-26)
....Those who are given their books in their left hands will be very sorry when they realize that there is no other option but to burn in Hell. They will sigh, saying: "Would

that my book had never been given me! And had I not known what my account was. If only I had not seen this day!"
....The Setting Up of the Balance
....Allah Almighty says:
...."And We will set up a just balance on the day of resurrection, so no soul shall be dealt with unjustly in the least; and though there be the weight of a grain of mustard seed, (yet) will We bring it, and sufficient are We to take account." (Anbiya, 47)
....After the distribution of the Books of Deeds, the trial will begin and a balance will be set up to determine if the deeds were good or bad.
....The right pan of this balance, whose form we cannot exactly know, will be for good deeds, and the left pan will be for bad deeds. This balance will be highly sensitive; any sin will be weighed like a grain of mustard or a flower seed, while good deeds will be heavier than the Sun and the stars. No one will be dealt with unjustly.
....The Trial Begins
....Those who wait for their deeds will be put on the scales that decide one's eternal suffering or eternal salvation or happiness; they will feel as if the Day of Judgment has just begun and they will experience inexplicable fear and shock. The initial inquiry will first be about their faith, then their prayers. The inquiry of prayers will include all compulsory prayers, day by day, beginning from age of puberty. The right pan of the balance will be for the reward given for the prayers accepted, and the left pan will be for the sin

of the prayers not fulfilled. The reward given for the prayers accepted will be an unimaginable amount. The same is true for the sin of unfulfilled prayers. Therefore, the prayers will have such an impact that they may even determine the balance of reward vs. sin, which will make the trial of those who do not pray five times more difficult. Our beloved Prophet can only intercede on behalf of those who have fulfilled their prayers, because he will be able to recognize them from the traces of their ablutions.
....After the five compulsory prayers, the trial will continue and every detail will be covered. On that day, everyone's own organs will speak and testify to what they have experienced. Then, it comes time for the rights or claims of people, which will be very hard to carry out indeed, because the oppressed will receive their rights by getting the rewards of the oppressor.
....If the rewards are not sufficient to compensate for the rights of the oppressed, then the oppressor will bear the sins of the oppressed. Those who oppress, insult, and tyrannize people, who betray trusts, do not pay their debts, steal, and usurp will burn in Hell for years and eventually they will be full of regret.
....And Allah Almighty says:
...."And the measuring out on that day will be just; then as for him whose measure (of good deeds) is heavy, those are they who shall be successful;" (Araf, 8)
...."And as for him whose measure (of good deeds) is light those are they who have made their souls suffer loss because they disbelieved in our communications." (Araf, 9)
....People whose good deeds weigh heavier will

impatiently wait to go to Paradise, but those whose good deeds weigh less will regretfully wait for a fearsome punishment: being cast into Hell.

....What about the animals?
....Allah Almighty will bring animals back to life since they will also be judged, but separately, and the wrongs inflicted on them by humans and other animals will be avenged . They will be given bulky bodies so that they will able to take their revenges. Then they will die by the order of Allah: "Be Dust!" The animals are saved from the trials of Hell by being turned into dust:
...."The unbeliever shall say: O! would that I were dust!" (Naba, 40)
