Describe the Qur'an's teaching on the final judgment.
What will be an ideal response?
The Qur'an's teaching on the judgment is simple and sobering (20:100-127; 18-101-104; 23:105-115). On a day known only to God, a heavenly trumpet will sound, and all the dead will rise from their graves with eternal bodies to meet their Maker. Everyone will be given a book in which is recorded all the deeds he or she has done in his life. Angels will put the books of the wicked in their left hand, a symbol of divine disapproval, but the righteous will receive their book in their right hand. The righteous can then enter heaven, but the wicked go straight to hell.
