Explanation:
"When the earth is shaken with its [final] earthquake"
Ibn 'Abbaas said that it means: "When the earth moves from beneath its
surface . "
"And the earth discharges its burdens"
That is, when it throws out its dead. This is said by many, like the
Words of Allaah (which mean) : "O mankind, fear your Lord. Indeed, the
convulsion of the [final] Hour is a terrible thing." [Quran 22:1], and
:
"And when the earth has been extended, and has cast out that within it
and relinquished [it]." [Quran 84:3-4] It is narrated on the authority
of Abu Hurayrah that the Messenger of Allaah said: "The earth will
throw out what is hidden within it, suchas columns of gold and silver,
and the murderer will say: 'For this I committed murder.' Then the one
who severed family ties will say: 'For this I severed relations.' Then
the thief will come and say: 'For this was my hand cut.' Then they
will leave it and not take anything from it . " [Muslim and
At-Tirmithi]
"And man says, 'What is wrong with it?'" -
That is, in bewilderment, he cries out: "What is happening to the
earth, which previously was fixed, firm and peaceful and is now moving
in convulsions underits surface?" It does so by the Command of Allaah,
the Most High. Then it throws out all of its dead from the first
generation to the last, and at this time man cries out in
astonishment: "What is wrong with it?"
"That Day, it will report its news"
That is, it will speak about the actions of those whom it has thrown
forth. It is narrated on the authority of Abu Hurayrah that he said:
"The Messenger of Allaah read the verse (which means): " That Day, it
will report its news ," then he said: " Do you know what the news
are?" We (the listening companions) replied: "Allaah and His Messenger
know best." He said: "Verily, (they) are that it will testify
concerning every slave, male and female, about what they did on its
surface, that it willsay: 'He did this and this on such-and-such a day
.' - Those are its news." [Imaam Ahmad]
"Because your Lord has inspired [i.e. commanded] it"
Mujaahid said it means that Allaah will command the earth togive its tidings.
"That Day, the people will depart separated [into categories], to
beshown [the result of] their deeds,"
That is, they will proceed to the place of reckoning in scattered
groups, according to their type, ranging from the most abjectly
wretched to the joyful, having been ordered to proceed to Hell or
Paradise.
"to be shown [the result of] their deeds ".
To confirm what they did in their earthly life, whether good or bad,as
Allaah says (what means): " So whoever does an atom's weight of good
will see it, and whoever does an atom's weight of evil willsee it . "
It is narrated on the authority of 'Adiy Ibn Haatim that the Messenger
of Allaah said: "Fear the Fire even if it were by (giving) a portion
of a date or by (saying) a good word. Do not despise any act of
kindness, even if it were to fill the drinking vessel of a thirsty
person from your bucket, or to meet your brother face-to-face and
smile at him." [Al-Bukhaari]
Also narrated by Al-Bukhaari is: "Ocommunity of believing women! Let
not the woman neighbour despise her woman neighbour, even if it were
by (giving her) a sheep's trotter." In another authentic narration, he
said: "Respond to the one who asks (for assistance) even if it were
with only a burnt trotter." It is narrated on the authority of 'AmrIbn
Al-'Aas that he said:"When the Soorah (Quranic chapter), " When the
earth is shaken with its [final] earthquake " was revealed, Abu Bakr
whowas sitting with the Prophet began to cry. The Messenger of Allaah
asked him: "What makes you cry, O, Abu Bakr? " AbuBakr replied: 'This
Soorah makes me cry.' Then the Messenger of Allaah said: "Even if you
did not err and commit sins that Allaah might forgive you, He would
have created another community who erred and committed sins that He
might forgive them . " [Muslim]
" So whoever does an atom's weight …" That is, the most insignificant
weight - less than anant .
"… of good will see it ."
That is, he shall see it recorded inthe book given to him on the Day
of Judgment, and he will be pleased with that: Every sinful act, every
charitable deed is recorded therein. Every bad deed will be
recompensed as one deed, while every good deed will be recompensed ten
times over. Whoever has more good deeds than bad will enter Paradise .
The Messenger of Allaah said :
"Beware of the minor sins, because they will build up over a man until
they destroy him." [Ahmad]
Anas said: "The Messenger of Allaah said: "Say: 'He is Allaah, One."
is equal to one-third of the Quran and " When the earth is shaken with
its [final] earthquake " is equivalent to one-quarter of the Quran."
[Al-Bazzaar] It is also reported on the authority of AnasIbn Maalik '
' that Allaah's Messenger said to a man: " Have you married, O,
so-and-so? " He replied: "No, by Allaah! I have not the wherewithal,
how may I marry?" The Messenger said: "…Do you not have When the earth
is shaken with its [final] earthquake ?" The man replied:"Certainly!"
The Prophet said: "(It is) one-quarter of the Quran: " [At-T irmithi]
