The Day of Judgement ? a transformation of the Earth towards the Light.

truthseeker171

Many believers think that the Earth will be destroyed at Judgement Day or will be turned into hell.
An example for this point of view is found in the front page article of the Free-Minds site ? Judgement Day, Hell & Earth.

Quote of the conclusion of the article
In the events of Judgement Day, what is most revealing and frightening is that Hell is not a distant place to which the criminals will be herded, but is the reality of our Earth transforming into the stuff of nightmares ? a place where the wicked will be stranded ? as long as the heavens and Earth are standing, while the righteous will be taken away.
It is this new reality that sheds light on many of the verses in the Qur?an that deal with the subject, the foremost of which is that ?all mankind will enter Hell?

1971-72 And every single one of you will be in it. This for your Lord is a certainty that will come to pass. Then We will save those who were righteous, and We will leave the wicked in it on their knees.

According to the Qur?an, our lush green planet, will be transformed into a barren, barely inhabitable wasteland - where the sun has expanded, the sky has torn, the mountains have been crushed, lava is gushing from the belly of the Earth, the seas have become too hot to sustain life, there are barely any places to take shelter in, nor is there any abundant shade ? it is a miserable, desolate place where there is only suffering, hardship, and pain. End quote

There are several verses in the Koran that indicate a different future for Earth.

3969 The earth will shine with the light of its Lord ?

3974 They said, "Praise be to God who has fulfilled His promise to us, and He made us inherit the earth, enjoying Paradise as we please. What a beautiful recompense for the workers!"

21105 We have written in the Psalms "After the reminder, that the earth will be inherited by My servants who do good.

From these three verses one can learn that the Earth will be transformed into a place of the Light of God and will be inherited by the righteous servants of God.

Both the Heavens and the Earth will be transformed.

3967 ? and the whole earth is within His fist on the day of resurrection, and the heavens will be folded in His right hand. Be He glorified; He is much too high above what they set up.

According to the Koran earthquakes and other events are a part of this transformation of Earth, the mountains will disappear according to verse 20105-107.

The article suggest that every human being will enter Hell ? this way of reading verse 1971-72 is contradicted by following verses.

21101 As for those who deserved good from Us, they will be kept/removed/protected from it.
21102 They shall not hear the slightest sound from it, and they will be in what their person desires abiding therein.

Rather the righteous believers will be kept apart from the Hell and will not even hear a sound of it. That is different from having to enter the Hell first.

4153 We will show them Our signs in the horizons, and within themselves, until it becomes clear to them that this is the truth. Is it not enough that your Lord is witness over all things?

Within this context it might be interesting to study from a koranic perspective some -New Age- internetsites about the coming Ascension of Earth and Mankind. There are some similarities between this Ascension-movement on the internet and relevant verses of the Koran.
For instance

the transformation of the Earth towards the Light of God.
the transformed Earth will be inherited by the positive part of mankind.
peace, upliftment and sharing of wealth are core-issues.

At the other hand some information on these sites can be different from what many believers are used to, for instance regarding reincarnation and the possible existence of extra-terrestial intelligence.

In any case - God is the Knower.
