THE ONLY KNOWER OF UNSEEN IS ALLAH
VERSE NO. 25-28
Some of the polytheists frequently asked the prophet:-``When is the promise of the Final Judgement coming to pass?'' And the prophet's answer was always:-``I don't know, Only God knows that?''
In this regard, the general law is that:-``God is the only knower of unseen, and he will not divulge the secrets of His unseen, except to some of His messengers and prophets, that they should know it.'' Meanwhile, He sets sentinels to watch if they properly convey God's Message to those who are due. This is because the inspiration from Allah has to be safeguarded from being destroyed, forgotten or perverted. Among the unseen that God has not even revealed its time of occurance to His prophets, is the exact time of Resurrection and Final Judgement.
The coming of the Resurrection Day is certain, but no body except God knows when?! Even the prophets do not know when will it happen, and even if some prophets are aware of the secrets, they are forbidden to reveal it.
In other word, the absolute mystery of God and His creation cannot be apprehended by a creature, unless God reveals it to him.
After all; we do not know a great many of things, such as our time of death. Even if we knew that, our knowledge would add nothing to our life except perplexity and sorrow.
