What Are The Rewards on The Day of Judgment?
Answered by Imam Yama Niazi
Question
What are the rewards on the Day of judgment?
Answer
Allah Most High created life and death as a test. He says in the Quran, “˹He is the One˺ Who created death and life in order to test which of you is best in deeds. And He is the Almighty, All-Forgiving.” [Quran, 67:2]
The Day of judgment is when we will all be judged and given our ultimate results. The rewards that follow will be in Paradise for those who granted His mercy and pardon.
Paradise
Paradise is a place which Allah has created as a reward for those who believe in Him and follow His religion which He sent down to the greatest of all people, the Prophet Muhammad [peace and blessings be upon him]
The reality of Paradise is beyond our comprehension.
“No soul can imagine what delights are kept in store for them as a reward for what they used to do.” [Quran, 32:17]
We also see in the hadith where it mentions something similar:
Abu Huraira narrated that the Prophet [peace and blessings be upon him] said, “Allah said, “I have prepared for My righteous slaves (such excellent things) as no eye has ever seen, nor an ear has ever heard, nor any imagination has conceived of.” [Bukhari]
Accounting on The Day of Judgment
There are among humanity those who will have an easy time and will enter Paradise without suffering, and there are those who will enter Hell and have a tough time on the Day of Judgment.
I have taught a class on this subject, and you can watch a more detailed talk on this topic here:
May Allah grant us all success and bliss in the afterlife.
