Caution: Translations of Quran and Ḥadīth may lead to possible misapplications and misinterpretations. This site is intended for students of sacred knowledge that are proficient in comprehending classical Arabic and have a strong foundation in Islamic sciences. Also note that religious injunctions rely on several aspects beyond what one may glean through reading individual aḥādīth.

Read Surahs Takwir, Infitar, and Inshiqaq for vivid details of the scenes of the Day of Judgement

tirmidhi:3333ʿAbbās b. ʿAbd al-ʿAẓīm al-ʿAnbarī > ʿAbd al-Razzāq > ʿAbdullāh b. Baḥīr > ʿAbd al-Raḥman / Ibn Yazīd al-Ṣanʿānī > Ibn ʿUmar

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Whoever wishes to look at the Day of Resurrection, as if he is seeing it with this eye, then let him recite: Surat al-Takwir ‘When the sun is rolled up’ and Surat al-Infitar ‘When the sky is ripped open’ and Surat al-Inshiqaq ‘When the sky is split apart.’  

الترمذي:٣٣٣٣حَدَّثَنَا عَبَّاسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَظِيمِ الْعَنْبَرِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ بَحِيرٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ وَهُوَ ابْنُ يَزِيدَ الصَّنْعَانِيُّ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ عُمَرَ يَقُولُ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَنْ سَرَّهُ أَنْ يَنْظُرَ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ كَأَنَّهُ رَأْىُ عَيْنٍ فَلْيَقْرَأْ ( إِذَا الشَّمْسُ كُوِّرَتْ) و (إِذَا السَّمَاءُ انْفَطَرَتْ) وَ (إذَا السَّمَاءُ انْشَقَّتْ)  

هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ وَرَوَى هِشَامُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ وَغَيْرُهُ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ وَقَالَ مَنْ سَرَّهُ أَنْ يَنْظُرَ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ كَأَنَّهُ رَأْىُ عَيْنٍ فَلْيَقْرَأْ (إذَا الشَّمْسُ كُوِّرَتْ ) وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ و (إِذَا السَّمَاءُ انْفَطَرَتْ ) وَ (إذَا السَّمَاءُ انْشَقَّتْ )
