Belief in the Day of Judgement

Belief in the Day of Judgement(Al-Yawm Al-Akhir)
The fifth essential condition of faith (al-iman) is to believe in the Day of Judgement.In other wordsi it şs to believe in the blowing of the trumpet, in the raising of the dead from their graves, in the handing to everyone of his/her Book of Deeds ,in the assembling on the plain of the Final Judgement, in the questioning and in the weighing on the scale(balance) of the deeds done in the previous life in the world , in the intercession(al-Shafa'ah) , in the bridge (al-Sirat), in the fountain (al-Kawthar), in paradis(al-Cannah), in hell (al-Cahannam), and in other issues regarding life in the hereafter.
The Hereafter (al-Akhirah) is the endless  life after this temporary worldly life, Allah the Most Great has created this world and the whole creation for a limited period of time.With the first blowing of the trumpet by Raphael(Israfil, a.s.), Doomsday will suddenly begin, the whole of living creation will die, and our world along with the whole universe will be shattered. With the second blowing of the trumpet, the whole of creation will be brought back to life by Allah , the Almighty, and wil be assembled on the vast plain of the Final Judgement. There , the whole of the creation  will be questioned individually about his/her worldly deeds. At the end of the Final Judgement the good shall be stationed in Paradise and the evil in Hell.One who desbelieves in the Hereafter is considered to disbelieve in Allah the Unique One and in His Prophet (s.a.s.).
