106-WHEN SOME FACES WILL TURN WHITE AND SOME FACES WILL TURN BLACK.  AS FOR WHO’S FACES TURNED BLACK, DID YOU DISBELIEVE AFTER YOU HAVE BELIEVED?  THEN TASTE THE PUNISHMENT BECAUSE OF YOUR DISBELIEF.

107- AS FOR THOSE WHO’S FACES TURNED WHITE, THEY ARE IN ALLAH’S MERCY WHERE THEY WILL ABIDE FOREVER.

108- THESE ARE THE AYAHS OF ALLAH WE RECITE TO YOU, CONTAINING THE TRUTH, FOR ALLAH DOES NOT DESIRE INJUSTICE TO MANKIND.

109- AND TO ALLAH BELONGS ALL THAT IS IN THE HEAVENS AND EARTH, AND TO ALLAH ALL MATTERS WILL BE REFERRED.

Allah the Highest is telling us about how we will be on the Day of Resurrection.  Some faces will be whitened, and others blackened when we know our fate and destination.  The words white and black here may be symbolic of our state on that day.  On the other hand it my be real, for on the Day of Resurrection, the faces of the Muslims observing Salah regularly will be whitened so will their feet. 

Allah’s messenger prayer and peace upon him said: “My basin will be larger than it is from Aylah (Aqabah) to Eden.  It is whiter than snow and sweater than milk and honey, with more cups than there are stars, and I will be stopping people reaching it, just as a man stops another man’s camels from getting to his basin.  The Muslims said: “O prophet of Allah, will you know us?”  He said: “Yes, via a mark no one else has, you will come to me with white faces and feet, a mark of your Wadoo”.  (B:Mosaqah;10 & M:Taharah;36 & D:Sunah,23 & Mal:Taharah;28 & Ma:Zohd;36 & A:2;222)

Those, whose faces are whitened, will enjoy Allah’s Pleasure and Mercy, and they will dwell for ever in the Paradise Allah the Highest prepared for them.

The blackened faces are of those to whom Allah the Highest says: “AS FOR WHO’S FACES TURNED BLACK, DID YOU DISBELIEVE AFTER YOU HAVE BELIEVED?”   They fall into one of three groups:

1-    Those who became disbelievers after being Muslim. We hear about this happening every now and then.                

2-    The Hypocrites.

3-    The People of the Book.  They believed in their prophets, but when the last prophet and messenger prayer and peace upon him came with his message, they did not believe in him.

This is the whole truth Allah the Highest.  Allah the Highest does not desire to do mankind injustice, therefore prophets and messengers were sent to us. Books were sent to guide mankind too.  It is fair and just to reward those who take heed, and punish those who do not.  Allah the Highest said: “HE WHO IS RIGHTLY GUIDED, HE HAS BEEN RIGHTLY GUIDED FOR HIS OWN BENEFIT; AND HE WHO IS MISGUIDED, IT IS UPON HIS OWN HEAD, AND NO ONE WILL CARRY THE BURDEN OF ANOTHER, AND WE WERE NOT TO PUNISH UNTIL WE SEND A MESSENGER”.  (S: 17 A: 15)

It will be all in Allah’s Hands then for all matters will be referred to Him then.  This is Allah’s policy, and has always been.
