"عَن ابْن عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: يُؤْتَى بِالدُّنْيَا يَوْمَ الْقيَامَةِ في صُورَة عَجُوزٍ شَمْطَاءَ زَرْقَاءَ أَنْيَابُهَا بَادِيَةٌ مَشْئُومَةٌ خَلْقُهَا، فَتُشْرِفُ عَلَى الْخَلاَئِق، فَيُقَالُ: تَعْرِفُونَ هَذِهِ؟ فَيَقُولُونَ: نَعُوذُ بِالله مِنْ مَعْرِفَةِ هَذِهِ، فَيُقَالُ: هَذِهِ الدُّنْيَا الَّتِى تَفَاخَرْتُمْ عَلَيْهَا، بهَا تَقَاطَعْتُمْ، وَبَها تَحَاسَدْتُمْ وَتَبَاغَضْتُمْ، وَاغْتَرَرْتُمْ، ثُمَّ تُقْذَفُ في جَهَنَّمَ، فَتُنَادِى: أَىْ رَبِّ أَيْنَ أتْبَاعى وَأَشْياعى؟ فَيَقُولُ الله: أَلْحِقُوا بِهَا أَتْبَاعَهَا وَأَشْيَاعَهَا".

“Ibn 'Abbas said: The world will be brought on the Day of Resurrection in the form of a withered, blue-eyed old woman, her fangs showing, her form ugly. She will look down over the creatures, and it will be said: Do you know this? They will say: We seek refuge with Allah from knowing this. It will be said: This is the world for which you boasted over one another, through which you severed ties, envied and hated one another, and were deceived. Then it will be cast into Hell, and it will call out: My Lord, where are my followers and my partisans? Allah will say: Join her with her followers and her partisans.”
