Abstract

The research aims to confine the names of the Day of Doomsday in Surat Ghafir, and to clarify its significance, and its relationship to the subject of the Surah. The current research includes the names of the Day of Resurrection in the Holy Qur’an, and the discussion of their collection and inventory. The research includes identifying the names of the Day of Resurrection in Surat Ghafir and the significance of their meanings according to the interpreters. The names of the Doomsday in the surah have been divided into three sections, the first section deals with the inclusion of the names that were mentioned in the surah and are frequently repeated in other chapters in the Holy Qur’an, and it includes four names, which are the day of reckoning, the day of recompense, no injustice today, and the hour. The second section includes the names of the Day of Resurrection that were mentioned in Surat Ghafir, and were repeated in other than Surat Ghafir once, twice, or three times only. It also includes four names, which are: the day when they are prominent, the day of coming, the day the witnesses will rise, and the day the wrongdoers will not benefit from their excuse. The third section deals with the names of the Day of Resurrection that are unique to Surat Ghafir, and it is not mentioned in any other part of the Holy Qur’an. And this section includes three names, which are: the Day of Convergence, the Day of Proclamation, and the Day of Tawali (escaping), and turning around. And it turns out that the large number of names on the Day of Resurrection indicates its greatness. And that every name of its names or one of its attributes has a great secret out of which it shows an image, a scene, an event, and an event from the scenes and events on the Day of Resurrection. It touches the hearts, attracts the attention of the listener, and multiplies filming scenes so that the name conveys a great statement of the greatness of the scene. And it turns out that none of the scholars will claim to list them on the Day of Resurrection, because they are derived from multiple descriptions in which attention differs. The study has recommended to search the names of the Day of Resurrection, to list them and to determine their meanings.
