Abstract

This research attempts to explain the state of the heavens on the Day of Resurrection and what will happen there, based on what is mentioned in the verses of the Holy Quran. The reason for choosing this topic is that the Quran describes the state of the heavens on the Day of Resurrection in various ways. Therefore, we wanted to clarify and explain the meaning of those descriptions. We began the research by discussing the heavens and what was said about them in the Quran as a general introduction. Then we discussed the state of the heavens at the time of the Hour and the descriptions mentioned in the Holy Quran, treating each description as a separate topic. Finally, in two other sections, we discussed the timing of those disturbances and what will happen then. Then we concluded the research with a conclusion and results of the research in which we mentioned what we reached from this study. We ask God that we have been successful in presenting the topic, and we ask God to make this study purely for His noble sake.
