They are unbelievers in the meeting of their Lord’ (Qur’an, 32: 10) implies ‘raising’ ( بَعْث ). Then Allah (Mighty and Glorified be He) has named it as His meeting. And He has remembered the believers “those who expect to meet their Lord,” (Qur’an, 2:46) means ‘they are sure that they will be raised, brought together and rewarded and punished accordingly. Thus, meeting does not suggest physical vision. Meeting indicates raising.

And whenever the word ‘meeting (with the Lord)’ has come in the Book of Allah, interpret it as ‘raising’.”[^6] Hence, from the above, we can draw the following conclusion: The meeting with the Lord can be achieved both in this world as well as the hereafter.
