INTERNAL WITNESS
I swear by the Day of Resurrection, and by the
self-self-reproaching soul!
Does man think We shall never put his bones
together again? Indeed, We can remould his very
fingers!
Yet man would ever deny what is to come. ‘When
will this be,’ he asks, ‘this Day of Resurrection?’
But when the sight of mortals is confounded and
the moon eclipsed; when the sun and moon are
brought together -- on that day man will ask:
‘Whither shall I flee?’
No, there shall be no place of refuge. For on that
day all shall return to your Lord.
On that day man shall be informed of all that he
has done from first to last. He shall be a witness
against himself, even though he were to offer
excuses.
(The Qur’an 75:1-14)
