The Terrors of the Day of Judgment and the Qur’anic Miracle in the Stages of Human Creation

The Day of Judgment is a core belief in Islam — a day when every soul will stand before its Creator and be held accountable. The Qur’an describes it as a day of overwhelming terror, when the skies will be torn, the mountains will crumble, and every hidden deed will be exposed.

It is not a myth or symbolic idea, but a reality. The Qur’an repeatedly reminds humanity of this coming day — not to frighten them aimlessly, but to awaken hearts and guide people to truth before it’s too late.

But in the same Book that warns of that day, we find a powerful miracle: the detailed and accurate description of the stages of human creation, revealed over 1,400 years ago — long before the development of modern embryology.

In several verses, the Qur’an mentions how the human being was created:

  • From a drop of fluid,
  • Then a clinging substance,
  • Then a lump of flesh,
  • Then bones,
  • Then the bones were clothed with flesh.

This precise sequence, unknown at the time, has been confirmed by modern science — a sign that the Qur’an is not the word of man, but the revelation of the One who created man.

So, the Qur’an calls us to reflect:
If the One who created you has warned you about the Final Day — will you not prepare for it?
And if the Book that speaks of your creation tells you how to be saved — will you not listen?
