In scorching wind and scalding water, And in the shadow of a black smoke.

In scorching wind and scalding water, And in the shadow of a black smoke." (Al-Waqiah, 27-43) The following verses are from the Gospel in the same regard: "And He will separate them from one another as a shepherd parts the sheep from the goats; and He will place the sheep at His right and the goats at His left. ‘The king will then say to those at His right, ‘Come, My father’s blessed ones, inherit the kingdom that has been prepared for you from the foundation of the world;...

(Al-Qiyamat, 13) " On that day shall come out people (from their graves) in (scattered) groups, to be shown their own deeds.

Then he who hath done an atom-weight of good shall see it. And he who hath done an atom-weight of evil shall see it." (Al-Zilzal, 6-8) The Gospel includes a verse in this regard too, exactly with the same meaning.
