The Quran warns that Allah will come on his throne in the shadows of the clouds with ranks of angels in order to resurrect the dead and judge the earth:
Wait they for naught else than that Allah should come unto them
in the shadows of the clouds with the angels? Then the
case would be already judged. All cases go back to Allah (for judgment). S.
2:210 Pickthall
Wait they, indeed, for nothing less than that the angels should come unto
them, or thy Lord should come, or there should come one of the
portents from thy Lord? In the day when one of the
portents from thy Lord cometh, its belief availeth naught a soul which
theretofore believed not, nor in its belief earned good (by works). Say: Wait
ye! Lo! We (too) are waiting. S. 6:158 Pickthall
That is because God — He
is the Truth, and brings the dead to life, and is powerful over
everything, and because the
Hour is coming, no doubt of it, and God shall raise up whosoever
is within the tombs. S. 22:6-7 Arberry
And when the trumpet shall sound one blast And the earth with
the mountains shall be lifted up and crushed with one crash, Then, on that day
will the Event befall. And the heaven will split asunder, for that day it will
be frail. And the angels will be on the sides thereof, and eight will uphold the Throne
of thy Lord that day, above them. On that day ye will be
exposed; not a secret of you will be hidden. Then, as for him who is given his
record in his right hand, he will say: Take, read my book! Surely I knew that I
should have to meet my reckoning. S. 69:13-20 Pickthall
Nay, but when the earth is ground to atoms, grinding,
grinding, And
thy Lord shall come with angels, rank on rank, And hell is
brought near that day; on that day man will remember, but how will the
remembrance (then avail him)? He will say: Ah, would that I had sent before me
(some provision) for my life! None punisheth as He will punish on that day!
None bindeth as He then will bind. But ah! thou soul at peace! Return unto thy
Lord, content in His good pleasure! Enter thou among My bondmen! Enter thou My
Garden! S. 89:21-30 Pickthall
This shall be the day in which every person will stand before
Allah in order to be judged:
And could you see when they are made to stand (wuqifoo) before their
Lord. He will say: Is not this the truth? They will say: Yea!
by our Lord. He will say: Taste then the chastisement because you disbelieved.
S. 6:30 Sher Ali
Just in case a Muslim seeks to deny that the Arabic term means
to stand, here is how one lexical source defines it:
Waw-Qaf-Fa = to stand, make
someone to stand.
Wuqifuu (pp. 3rd. p. m. pl.): held over, made to stand.
Qiifuu (prt. m. pl.): make stand, hold up.
Mauquufuuna (pact. pic. m. pl.): those who are brought up, made
to stand, are held.
waqafa vb. (1) impv. 37:24
perf. pass. 6:27, 6:30
pcple. pass. 34:31

The Islamic scripture further states that mankind will be
divided into two groups, namely, the people of the right hand versus the people
of the left hand. Those on the right will be blessed while those on the left
will be condemned to hell:
Then the people of
the right hand – Oh! how happy shall be the people of the right hand! And
the people of
the left hand – Oh! how wretched shall be the people of the left hand!…
For the people of
the right hand, A crowd of the former, And a crowd of the
latter generations. But the people of
the left hand – oh! how wretched shall be the people of the left hand! Amid
pestilential winds and in scalding water, And in the shadow of a black smoke,
Not cool, and horrid to behold. For they truly, ere this, were blessed with
worldly goods, But persisted in heinous sin, And were wont to say, “What! after
we have died, and become dust and bones, shall we be raised? And our fathers,
the men of yore?” Aye, the former and the latter: Gathered shall they all be
for the time of a known day. S. 56:8-9, 38-50 Rodwell
Yet he attempted not the steep. And who shall teach thee what
the steep is? It is to ransom the captive, Or to feed in the day of famine, The
orphan who is near of kin, or the poor that lieth in the dust; Beside this, to
be of those who believe, and enjoin stedfastness on each other, and enjoin
compassion on each other. These shall be the people of the right hand:
While they who disbelieve our signs, Shall be the people of the left.
Around them the fire shall close. S. 90:11-20 Rodwell
Here’s where it get’s interesting. It is obvious that Muhammad
has attributed to his god the very functions and deeds, which the Lord Jesus is
going to perform!
According to Christ, he shall be the One who shall resurrect the
dead and execute judgment upon all creation at the last day:
“The Father judges no one, but has committed all judgment to the Son…
Truly, truly I say to you, the
hour is coming, and is now here, when the dead will hear the voice of the
Son of God, and those who hear will live… and has given Him
authority to execute judgment also, because He is the Son of Man. Do not marvel
at this. For the
hour is coming in which all who are in the graves will
hear His [the Son’s] voice and come out—those who have
done good to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil to the
resurrection of judgment.” John 5:22, 25, 27-29
“‘For
I came down from heaven, not to do My own will, but the will of
Him who sent Me. This is the will of the Father who has sent Me, that of all
whom He has given Me, I should lose nothing, but should raise it up at the last
day. This is the will of Him who sent Me, that everyone who
sees the Son and believes in Him may have eternal life, and I will raise him up on the
last day.’ The Jews then murmured about Him, because He said, ‘I am the bread which came down
from heaven.’ They said, ‘Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph,
whose father and mother we know? How is it then that He says, “I have come down
from heaven”?’ Jesus therefore answered them, “Do not murmur
among yourselves. No one can come to Me unless the Father who has sent Me draws
him. And I will
raise him up on the last day… Whoever eats My flesh and drinks
My blood has eternal life. And
I will raise him up on the last day.’” John 6:38-44, 54
The Lord further taught that judgment would take place when he
comes in the clouds of heaven with all his angels. This shall be the day when
all the nations will stand before the Son of God, and where the Son will place
them on his right and left hands respectively. Not surprisingly, the ones on
Christ’s hand shall enter their everlasting rest whereas the ones on his left
will be doomed to hell:
“Then they will see the
Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory…
Therefore watch always and pray that you may be counted worthy to escape all
these things that will happen and
to stand before the Son of Man.” Luke 21:27, 36
“For the
Son of Man shall come with His angels in the
glory of His
Father, and then He will repay every man according to his
works.” Matthew 16:27
“‘When the
Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then He will
sit on
the throne of His glory. Before Him will be gathered all nations,
and He will separate them one from another as a shepherd separates his sheep
from the goats. He
will set the sheep at His right hand, but the goats at the left.
Then the King will
say to those at
His right hand, “Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit
the kingdom prepared for you since the foundation of the world. For I was
hungry and you gave Me food, I was thirsty and you gave Me drink, I was a
stranger and you took Me in. I was naked and you clothed Me, I was sick and you
visited Me, I was in prison and you came to Me.” Then the righteous will answer
Him, “Lord,
when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink? 38 When
did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You? And when
did we see You sick or in prison and come to You?’ The King will
answer, “Truly I say to you, as you have done it for one of the least of these
brothers of Mine, you have done it for Me.” Then He will say to those at the left hand,
“Depart from Me, you cursed, into the eternal fire, prepared for the devil and
his angels. For I was hungry and you gave Me no food, I was thirsty and you
gave Me no drink, I was a stranger and you did not take Me in, I was naked and
you did not clothe Me, I was sick and in prison and you did not visit Me.” Then
they also will answer Him, ‘Lord,
when did we see You hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in
prison, and did not serve You?” He will answer, “Truly I say to you, as you did
it not for one of the least of these, you did it not for Me.” And they will go
away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.’ When Jesus
had finished all these sayings, He said to His disciples, ‘You know that after
two days is the Passover, and
the Son of Man will be betrayed to be crucified.’” Matthew
25:31-46, 26:1-2
Now what makes this last passage all the more remarkable is that
Muhammad had the audacity to take Christ’s own words and place them into the
mouth of Allah!
On the authority of Abu Hurayrah, who said that the Messenger of
Allah said:
Allah (mighty and sublime be He) will say on the Day of
Resurrection: O son of Adam, I fell ill and you visited Me not. He will say: O
Lord, and how should I visit You when You are the Lord of the worlds? He will
say: Did you not know that My servant So-and-so had fallen ill and you visited
him not? Did you not know that had you visited him you would have found Me with
him? O son of Adam, I asked you for food and you fed Me not. He will say: O
Lord, and how should I feed You when You are the Lord of the worlds? He will
say: Did you not know that My servant So-and-so asked you for food and you fed
him not? Did you not know that had you fed him you would surely have found that
(the reward for doing so) with Me? O son of Adam, I asked you to give Me to drink
and you gave Me not to drink. He will say: O Lord, how should I give You to
drink when You are the Lord of the worlds? He will say: My servant So-and-so
asked you to give him to drink and you gave him not to drink. Had you given him
to drink you would have surely found that with Me.
It was related by Muslim. (40 Hadith Qudsi, Hadith 18 https://sunnah.com/qudsi40/18)
What more proof do Muslims need that their prophet was a
plagiarist who stole the inspired words of the Bible, which he heard from
others, and then passed them off as revelations supposedly given to him from
God?
And yet here is where the problem lies for these Muhammadans. By
ascribing the very words of the Lord from this Matthean text to Allah, Muhammad
ended up confirming that Jesus did in fact make himself out to be God Almighty
by claiming to do what even the Islamic prophet realized was a work that only
God will perform!
To make matters worse for Muslims, even Jesus’ own disciples,
whom the Quran presents as being Muslims (cf. Q. 3:52; 5:111), proclaimed that
the risen Christ is the Judge of all creation before whom everyone will stand
when he arrives with his angels on the last day to judge the whole world:
“The word which He sent to the children of Israel, preaching
peace through Jesus Christ, who
is Lord of all… He commanded us to preach to the people and to
testify that it is He who was ordained by God to be the Judge of the living and
the dead. Acts 10:36, 42
“God overlooked the times of ignorance, but now He commands all
men everywhere to repent. For He has appointed a day on which He will judge the
world in righteousness by
a Man whom He has appointed, having given assurance of
this to all men by
raising Him from the dead.” Acts 17:30-31
“For to this end Christ died and rose and lived again, so that
He might be Lord of both the dead and living. So why do you judge your brother?
Or why do you despise your brother? For
we shall all STAND before the judgment seat of Christ. For it
is written: ‘As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to Me, and every
tongue shall confess to God.’ So then each of us shall give an account of
himself to God.” Romans 14:9-12
“For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ,
that each one may receive his recompense in the body, according to what he has
done, whether it was good or bad. Therefore, knowing the fear of the Lord, we
persuade men. But we are revealed to God, and I trust we are also revealed in
your consciences.” 2 Corinthians 5:10-11
“This is evidence that God’s judgment, being righteous, will
count you worthy of the kingdom of God for which you are suffering. It is a
righteous matter with God to repay with tribulation those who trouble you, and
to give you who are troubled rest with us when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with His
mighty angels, in flaming fire taking vengeance on those
who do not know God and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. They
shall be punished with eternal destruction, isolated from the presence of the Lord and from
the glory of His power, when He comes, in that Day, to be
glorified in His saints and to be marveled at by all those who believe, because
our testimony among you was believed.” 2 Thessalonians 1:5-10
“I charge you therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will
judge the living and the dead at HIS appearing and HIS kingdom…
From now on a crown of righteousness is laid up for me, which the Lord, the righteous Judge,
will give me on
that Day, and not only to me but also to all who have
loved HIS
appearing… At my first defense no one stood with me, but
everyone forsook me. May it not be charged against them. But the Lord stood with me and
strengthened me, so that through me the preaching might be
fully known, and that all the Gentiles might hear. And I was delivered out of
the mouth of the lion. The
Lord will deliver me from every evil work and will
preserve me for
HIS heavenly kingdom, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.”
2 Timothy 4:1, 8, 16-18
This is what happens to every blasphemer and perverter of God’s
Word. The risen Lord not only exposes such antichrists to be liars and
deceivers, but he also uses these blasphemers’ own perversion of his truth to
glorify his name by showing himself to be God Almighty in the flesh.
This is basically the case with Muhammad who, due to his aping
the words of the Holy Bible, ended up actually proving that Jesus described
himself as God Almighty by claiming to perform the very divine works, which
even this false prophet said can only be carried out by God. And as a result of
such plagiarism, Muhammad stands exposed as an antichrist and blasphemer who
has been brought under the glorious feet of the Lord Jesus, and who shall be
condemned when he stands before the risen Lord of glory at that terrible and
fearful day.
IHS
