When the inevitable Event, the Qayamah will be established, it will be a great upheaval. It will humiliate many a kings for their disobedience and exalt many a poor and hapless believers for their piety, by Allah^-SWT's Mercy. The earth will shake violently until the mountains crumble and are blown away as dust. Mankind will now be divided into three groups.

One of these shall be the blessed souls, holding their Registers of Conduct in their right hands, standing on right side of the 'Arsh. The second group shall comprise the infidels and the wrongdoers, carrying the Registers of Conduct in their left hands, standing on left side of the 'Arsh. How wretched indeed will they be! The third group will include those who had excelled in faith and piety. How exalted in grace will they be, standing before the 'Arsh at a glorified station of Allah^-SWT's nearness! They shall dwell in the Gardens of Jannah. A multitude will comprise the believers from earlier times and very few will belong to the later generations.

Will Muqarrabun (the Near Ones) be from the Earlier Ummah?

Some scholars suggest that in the third group, the foremost in the race declared as Muqarrabun, the word Awwalih (preceders) refers to those who lived from Prophet Aadam^-AS's time to the raising of the Holy Prophet^-SW. Tafsir-e-Mazhari, however, asserts with good reasons that it rightfully pertains to the Ummah of the Holy Prophet^-SW, being the first addressees of the Quran, the Companions^-RAU followed by the Tab'ain and the Tab'a Tab’ain. They are certainly the Muqarrabun having lived in Khair-ul-Qurun (the best period in human history). Those coming later in time are termed as Akhirm; the most noble amongst them, the martyrs and the righteous, will join the Muqarrabun. Thus this group will comprise a multitude from the ancients and a few from later generations. These fortunate souls shall be seated in elegance on adjoining couches, facing one another enjoying mutual chat. They will be waited upon by young lads who, like the damsels, are also indigenous to Jannah, created without the process of procreation. Every dweller of Jannah will be attended by thousands of these lads to serve them goblets of limpid drinks enriched in taste and ecstasies. Unlike the intoxicating liquor here that drives one out of mind, this drink will increase perceptions and pleasures. They will be offered fruits of choice, roasted poultry and birds, and will be wedded to the most beautiful damsels, with eyes like pearls and gems concealed in covers, as a reward for their devotion to Allaah^-SWT and His^-SWT Prophet^-SW. There will be no cheap talk; goodness and peace prevailing all over. Whenever they will engage in a conversation, it will be abrim with mutual love and respect.

Now the first group on the right hand side of the 'Arsh will also be awarded Jannah with fruit-laden trees so special that even the lote-trees will be thorn-less. There will be clustered layers of bananas and dense shade of tall trees stretching out to long distances. Through these orchards, having countless varieties of ever-available fruits, will be flowing clean water channels. Seated on splendid couches, they will be accompanied by beautiful damsels, especially created for the believers. The women of this world awarded Jannah will excel even the damsels of Jannah in beauty. These damsels shall retain their virginity even after copulation, and will passionately love their spouses. The ever young couples will be of the same age, as if childhood companions raised together. So, blessed will be this group on the right-hand.
