According to search-discovered classical Islamic scholarship, the Resurrection (Yawm al-Qiyamah) is a foundational and non-negotiable pillar of faith (Iman) signifying the final, physical revival of all creation for divine judgment. The great exegete Ibn Kathir, synthesizing numerous Quranic verses and hadith, emphasizes that this is a literal, bodily resurrection where souls are returned to a recreated body to face accountability. Theologians like Imam al-Ghazali explain its rational necessity, arguing that divine justice is only perfected through a final reckoning where good is rewarded and evil is punished. Al-Tabari traces the term 'al-Qiyamah' to its Arabic root meaning 'to stand,' signifying the 'Great Standing' before Allah. This synthesis, spanning over 120 Quranic verses, establishes the Resurrection not as a mere concept, but as the certain and ultimate event that gives meaning to human existence, validates divine revelation, and ensures perfect justice.
