The Terrors of the Day of Resurrection, and how the Wrongdoers will wish that They had taken a Path with the Messenger Allah tells:وَيَوْمَ تَشَقَّقُ السَّمَاء بِالْغَمَامِ وَنُزِّلَ الْمَلَيِكَةُ تَنزِيلًAnd (remember) the Day when the heaven shall be rent asunder with clouds, and the angels will be sent down, with a grand descending. Here Allah tells us about the terror of the Day of Resurrection and the tremendous events that will happen, including the splitting of heavens when they are pierced by the clouds, that is the shadow of the magnificent light which dazzles all sight.The angels of heaven will come down on that Day and surround all creatures at the place of gathering, then the Lord, may He be blessed and exalted, will come to pass judgement.Mujahid said,This is as Allah says:هَلْ يَنظُرُونَ إِلاَّ أَن يَأْتِيَهُمُ اللَّهُ فِي ظُلَلٍ مِّنَ الْغَمَامِ وَالْمَلَـيِكَةُDo they then wait for anything other than that Allah should come to them in the shadows of the clouds and the angels.
