“On the Day of Resurrection, one who was deprived of intellect will be brought and say, ‘O Lord, if You had given me intellect, no one to whom You gave intellect would be happier with his intellect than I would be.’ The one who died in the period of interruption will say, ‘O Lord, if a covenant had come to me from You, no one to whom a covenant came from You would be happier with Your covenant than I would be.’ The one who died as a child will say, ‘O Lord, if You had given me a lifespan, no one given a lifespan would be happier with his life than I would be.’ The Lord, glorified is He, will say, ‘I command you to one command. Will you obey Me?’ They will say, ‘Yes, by Your might.’ He will say, ‘Go and enter the Fire,’ and if they had entered it, it would not have harmed them. Then there will come out against them flames that they think have destroyed everything Allah created, so they will return quickly and say, ‘O Lord, by Your might, we went out wanting to enter it, but flames came out against us, and we thought they had destroyed everything Allah ﷻ created.’ He will command them a second time, and they will return in the same way and say the same thing. Allah, glorified is He, will say, ‘Before you were created, I knew what you would do, and to My knowledge you will return. Gather them,’ and the Fire will seize them.”
