7:187
The preceding realities can be further confirmed and substantiated by the following Qur'anic verse: “They ask you about the resurrection when it will happen. Say: The knowledge of it is with my Lord only (which will be granted after obtaining His proximity). None but He shall reveal it at its proper time. Heavy is it in the heavens and the earth; it will not come on you but suddenly” (7:187). The teaching of the holy Qur'an, that the resurrection is heavy in the heavens and the earth, is a sound proof of the reality that it exists in the universe with its act and effect and that no particle in the heavens and the earth is devoid of its act and effect. For, the heavens and the earth or the highness and the lowness are two names of the physical world that can be conceived (only) with respect to the place and its occupant.
The ta’wili wisdom of the spiritual resurrection mentioned in verse (7:187) is truly amazing. However, it is extremely necessary to think deeply and understand that resurrection is the supreme light of Hazrat qa’im, calayna salamuhu, whose bearer is the Universal Soul, in whose grip the entire universe is preserved.
You may know that the Universal Soul is the kursi (2:255) as well as the guarded Tablet (85:22), the supreme light of Hazrat qa’im as well as the fountainhead of spiritual resurrection and junction of the two sciences.
Study the ayatu’l-kursi in the light of ta’wili wisdom and also the wisdom-filled description about the Universal Soul in the book Zadu’l-musafirin.3
