The Assembly on the Day of Resurrection
and the Intercession of Prophet Muhammad
There are many authentic prophetic sayings relating to the Prophet's exalted and honored position on the Day of Resurrection.
Anas and several other Companions reported that the Prophet said, "Allah will join the first and the last, on the Day of Resurrection. They will be concerned or given thoughts with which they will say, 'If only we could seek intercession with our Lord!'" It is also reported that, "People will surge and search amongst each other."
Concerning the circumstances of that Day, Abu Hurayrah tells us of the occasion when the Prophet spoke giving more details of the Day of Resurrection saying, "On that Day the sun will be very near to mankind and they will undergo unbearable suffering and distress. They will say among themselves, 'Is there no one to intercede for us?' And they will go to Adam and say, 'O Adam, you are the father of mankind. Allah created you with His Hands and breathed into you of His (created) spirit, and let you live in His Paradise, and commanded the angels to prostrate in your direction, and taught you the names of everything. Won't you intercede for us with your Lord? Don't you see our condition and the intense suffering that has overtaken us?' Adam will say, 'My Lord is angry today in a way in which He has never been angered before, and He will never be angered like it again. He forbade me to eat of a certain tree but I disobeyed Him. I am afraid for myself, for myself, for myself. Go to someone else. Go to Noah.'
So they will go to Noah and say, 'O Noah, you were the first Messenger to the people on earth, and Allah called you a grateful worshiper. Look at our condition, see how we suffer. Won't you intercede for us with your Lord?' He will tell them, 'My Lord is angry today, in a way in which He has never been angered before, and He will never be angered like it again. I am afraid for myself, for myself, for myself, and he will mention the mistake he made when he asked his Lord without knowledge and say 'Go to someone else; go to Abraham, the close friend of Allah.' (In another narration his error is mentioned as being, 'I supplicated against my nation').
So they will go to Abraham and say, 'O Abraham, you are the Prophet of Allah, His close friend, chosen from the inhabitants of the earth, please intercede for us with your Lord. You can see the predicament we are in!' Abraham will tell them, 'My Lord is angry today, in a way in which He has never been angered before, and He will never be angered like it again. I was ambiguous in my speech three times - myself, myself, myself, therefore go to someone else, go to Moses. 'He is the
