Ayah Series #22 – Surah Al-Qari’ah

One of the main points of sort of sort of ARIA is the reality of the Day of Judgment and how the Day of Judgment needs to be our primary focus that we can't let other distractions get in the way of right. Because if you are, there's a fundamental difference between a person who is aware and cognizant of the date, the reality of the day of judgment and the afterlife, and a person who isn't. So a person who is aware of the afterlife, its reality and sort of what's going to go down on that day, then they're going to live their entire lives differently, it's going to affect everything that they do, right? What you believe in does matter at the end of the day. And so when that person gets

to the resurrect the Day of Resurrection, they have judgment, right, they're going to find that the scales are full with good deeds and sort of things that they wouldn't have done otherwise, if they didn't believe in the Day of Judgment, right. They knew it was coming. And so they put something away for it, whereas a person who either neglects sort of considering or thinking about the Day of Judgment, or they deliberately ignore it, and that person, their entire life is going to be affected by that belief. And they're not going to be putting things away for themselves on a day of judgment. And so when they get to the Day of Resurrection and judgment, they're going to find that their

scales are empty, and that person is going to have a miserable life in the hereafter and they're going to regret and wish that they had done things differently.
