On the Day of Judgement, Man will have no Power or Assistance

In this regard Allah says,

﴿ يَوۡمَ تُبۡلَى ٱلسَّرَآٮِٕرُ

(The Day when all the secrets will be examined.) meaning, on the Day of Judgement the secrets will be tested. This means that they will be exposed and made manifest. Thus, the secret will be made open and that which is concealed will be well known. It is confirmed in the Two Sahihs on the authority of Ibn `Umar that the Messenger of Allah said,

« يُرْفَعُ لِكُلِّ غَادِرٍ لِوَاءٌ عِنْدَ اسْتِهِ يُقَالُ: هذِهِ غَدْرَةُ فُلَانِ بْنِ فُلَان »

(Every betrayer will have a flag raised for him behind his back, and it will be said, `This is the betrayal of so-and-so, the son of so-and-so.') Concerning Allah's statement,

﴿ فَمَا لَهُ ۥ

(Then he will have no) meaning, man on the Day of Judgement.

﴿ مِن قُوَّةٍ۬

(any power) meaning, within himself.

﴿ وَلَا نَاصِرٍ۬

(nor any helper.) meaning, from other than himself. This statement means that he will not be able to save himself from the torment of Allah, and nor will anyone else be able to save him.

﴿ وَٱلسَّمَآءِ ذَاتِ ٱلرَّجۡعِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ ذَاتِ ٱلصَّدۡعِ إِنَّهُ ۥ لَقَوۡلٌ۬ فَصۡلٌ۬ وَمَا هُوَ بِٱلۡهَزۡلِ إِنَّہُمۡ يَكِيدُونَ كَيۡدً۬ا وَأَكِيدُ كَيۡدً۬ا فَمَهِّلِ ٱلۡكَـٰفِرِينَ أَمۡهِلۡهُمۡ رُوَيۡدَۢا
