Mention the day when God shall gather the messengers which is the Day of Resurrection and He will say to them as a rebuke for their peoples ‘What answer were you given?’ when you summoned them to proclaim God’s Oneness; they shall say ‘We have no knowledge of this; You only You are the Knower of things unseen’ those things which are hidden from God’s servants and that which they the messengers have forgotten all knowledge of on account of the great terror of the Day of Resurrection and their fright; but when they have calmed down they proceed to bear witness against their communities.

"The Messenger of Allah . Verily, Allah, with Him (alone) is the knowledge of the Hour up to His saying: 'Verily, Allah is All-Knower, All-Aware (of things).' Then he said: 'No, by the One who sent Muhammad with the truth, with guidance and glad tidings, I did not know him more than any man among you. That was Jibril, peace be upon you, who came down in the form of Dihyah Al-Kalbi.'"

Jami` at-Tirmidhi #3437Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, said:Sahih

“The Messenger of Allah recited this Ayah: ‘That Day it will declare its information.’ He said: “Do you know what its information is?” They said: “Allah and His Messenger know better.” He said: “That it testifies about what every male or female slave (of Allah) did upon its surface. It says: ‘He did this and that on this day.’ This is its information.”

Jami` at-Tirmidhi #2499"Abu Hurairah narrated:Sahih

"The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) recited: That Day it will declare its information. And said: 'Do you know what its information is?' they said: 'Allah and His Messenger know best.' He said: 'Indeed its information is that it will testify against every servant, male and female, It will say that he did such and such, on such and such a day.' He said: 'With this it shall be ordered.'" This Hadith is Hasan Gharib.

Sahih al-Bukhari #7230Narrated Anas:Sahih

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "The believers will be assembled on the Day of Resurrection and they will say, 'Let us look for someone to intercede for us with our Lord so that He may relieve us from this place of ours.' So they will go to Adam and say, 'You are Adam, the father of mankind, and Allah created you with His Own Hands and ordered the Angels to prostrate before you, and He taught you the names of all things; so please intercede for us with our Lord so that He may relieve us.' Adam will say, to them, 'I am not fit for that,' and then he will mention to them his mistake which he has committed.' "

We said: 'No.' He said: 'Do you crowd one another to see the moon on the night when it is full and there are no clouds?' We said: 'No.' He said: 'You will not crowd one another to see Him, just as you do not crowd to see these two things.'"
