Hakika, yale mnayoahidiwa (yaani, uhai baada ya kifo) ni kweli, na hesabu kali (ya hisabu na hukumu na malipo) bila shaka itatokea.

Verily, that which you are promised (that is, life after death) is true, and deep (the reckoning and the judgement and retribution) must indeed come to pass.

(adh-Dhaariyaat 51:5-6)

(adh-Dhaariyaat 51:5-6)

Je, umemwona yule anayekanusha Dini (maisha baada ya kifo)? Huyo ndiye anayemsukuma yatima kwa jeuri, wala hahimizi watu kuwalisha maskini na wahitaji.

Have you noticed the person who denies Deen (the life after death)? He is one who spurns the orphan, and does not urge people to feed the needy and the indigent.

(Al-Maa'oon 107:1-3)

(al-Maa’oon 107:1-3)

Na wewe unajua nini kuhusu Siku ya Dini? Naam, unajua kidogo tu kuhusu Siku ya Dini. Hiyo ndiyo Siku ambayo hakuna binadamu atakayeweza kumsaidia mwingine kwa lolote, Siku ambayo amri yote na mamlaka yote yatakuwa mikononi mwa Allah peke yake. (Al-Infitaar 82:17-19)

And what do you know of the Day of Deen? Yea, what (little) do you know of the Day of deen. That is the Day when no human being shall be able to be of any service to another, the Day on which all authority and dispensation will tangibly be in the hands of Allah. (al-Infitaar 82:17-19)

Ni dhahiri kwamba katika aya hizi, neno hilo limetumika kumaanisha wakati wa hesabu ya mwisho, watu watakapokuwa wamefufuliwa kutoka kwa wafu, pamoja na malipo au adhabu itakayofuata.

Obviously, in these verses, the word has been used to imply both the final reckoning when men shall have been raised from the dead as well as the reward or punishment which will follow.
