Resurrection and the Day of Judgment

What it is: Islam teaches that there will be bodily resurrection, accountability, and final judgment. Present life is temporary and prepares for future reality before God.

How the religion understands it: Each person will answer for faith, intentions, and actions. Judgment results in reward or punishment, with strong emphasis on divine justice, mercy, and moral responsibility.

Textual basis and context: The Qur'an extensively describes scenes of resurrection, weighing of deeds, paradise, and hell. This belief structures Islamic ethics, devotion, and eschatological consciousness.
