69:3 - And what will make thee realize what the Sure Reality is?<br />

5635 Al-haqqa: the sure Truth: the Event that must inevitably come to pass; the state in which all falsehood and pretence<br />

will vanish, and the absolute Truth will be laid bare. The questions in the three verses raise an air of wonder. The<br />

solution is suggested in what happened to the Thamud and the 'Ad, and other people of antiquity, who disregarded<br />

the Truth of Allah and came to violent end, even in this life,-Symbolically suggesting the great Cataclysm of the<br />

Hereafter, the Day of Doom. (69.1)<br />

69:15 - On that Day shall the (Great) Event come to pass<br />

84:5 - And hearkens to (the Command of) its Lord--and it must needs (do so)--(then will come<br />

Home the full Reality). 60346035<br />

6034 See n. 6032. We think the earth so solid and real. All our perishable things dissolve into the earth. But the earth itself<br />

will dissolve into a truer Reality. (84.5)<br />

6035 The substantive clause, to follow the two conditional clauses preceding, may be filled up from the suggestion<br />

contained in lxxxii. 5. (84.5)<br />

22:62 - That is because Allah He is the Reality: and those besides Him whom they invoke they are<br />

but vain Falsehood: verily Allah is He Most High Most Great. 28422843<br />

2842 The emphatic construction calls attention to the fact that Allah is the only abiding Reality. All else is like shadows that<br />

will pass away. (22.62)<br />

2843 See n. 2841 above. Our vain imaginings, groundless doubts, foolish subtleties, and false worship should all give place<br />

to trust and faith in the one and only Reality. (22.62)<br />

102:3 - But nay ye soon shall know (the reality).<br />

6:62 - Then are men returned unto Allah their Protector the (only) reality: is not His the Command?<br />

And He is the swiftest in taking account. 884<br />

884 The only Reality: al-haqq, the Truth, the only True One. The point is that our illusions of the life of this lower world now<br />

vanish, when we are rendered back to God, from Whom we came. And now we find that so far from the results of our<br />

actions being delayed, they follow more swiftly than we can express in terms of Time. Here is the answer to the taunt<br />

of those who were impatient of the working of God's Plans (vi. 57-58). (6.62)<br />

40:69 - Seest thou not those that dispute concerning the signs of Allah? How are they turned away<br />

(from Reality)? 4446<br />

4446 Those who dispute about the Signs of Allah which are clear to all who care to see, are merely in the mists of Unreality:<br />

Cf. x. 32. (40.69)<br />

78:39 - That Day will be the sure Reality: therefore whoso will let him take a (straight) Return to his<br />

Lord! 5913<br />

5913 Cf. lxix. 1 and n. 5635. Judgment is sure to come, and Truth will then be free from all veils. Why should not man,<br />

therefore, now in this life of probation, turn back to Allah, and understand and do His Will? (78.39)<br />

6:5 - And now they reject the truth when it reaches them: but soon shall they learn the reality of<br />

what they used to mock at.<br />

Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith<br />

Hadith 8.87 Narrated by<br />

Abu Bakra<br />

A man was mentioned before the Prophet and another man praised him greatly. The Prophet said, "May<br />

Allah's Mercy be on you! You have cut the neck of your friend." The Prophet repeated this sentence many<br />

times and said, "If it is indispensable for anyone of you to praise someone, then he should say, 'I think that<br />

he is so-and-so," if he really thinks that he is such. Allah is the One Who will take his accounts (as He<br />

knows his reality) and no-one can sanctify anybody before Allah." (Khalid said, "Woe to you," instead of<br />

"Allah's Mercy be on you.")<br />

Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith<br />

Hadith 3.106<br />

Narrated by<br />

Abu Said Al Khudr<br />

Allah's Apostle told us a long narrative about Ad-Dajjal, and among the many things he mentioned, was his<br />

saying, "Ad-Dajjal will come and it will be forbidden for him to pass through the entrances of Medina. He<br />

will land in some of the salty barren areas (outside) Medina; on that day the best man or one of the best men<br />
