| Abstract | ||
| There are about one thousand and two hundred verses regarding Resurrection in Qur'an. After studying these verses, we discovered that some of these verses strive to convince people to accept Resurrection and describe the way it will occur. Other verses sometimes refer to Resurrection directly and sometimes describe it through discourse-oriented titles. These discourse-oriented titles are The Calamity, Day of Mutual Disillusion, Day of Mutual Meeting, the Day that is [ever] drawing near, Day of Regret, Day when there of Mutual calling, Day of Sorting out, Day of Distress, etc. these words possess connotative meaning besides their referential meaning. Based on Fairclough’s view, these titles were analyzed in three levels: description, interpretation, and explanation. At the explanation level, we discussed the reasons for the revelation of these verses and discovered that their purpose is to warn Muslims of the Greatness and Immensity of that day. Moreover, the belief in Resurrection alone does not guarantee men’s prosperity, and they need to save good deeds for that day because those who have done more good deeds will have a better eternal life.) Whoever whose scale of good deeds is heavy, will have a satisfactory eternal life, and whoever whose scale of good deeds is light will be living in Abyss (Hell). | ||
