The people would be assembled on the Day of Resurrection barefooted, naked and uncircumcised. I said: Allah's Messenger, will the male and the female be together on the Day and would they be looking at one another? Upon this Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: 'A'isha, the matter would be too serious for them to look to one another.
The Book of Paradise, its Description, its Bounties and its Inhabitants
Sahih Muslim 2859 a - Commentary by Imam An-Nawawi
The State of Resurrection
The Prophet's description of people being resurrected barefoot, naked, and uncircumcised indicates the complete stripping of worldly adornments and distinctions. All shall stand equal before Allah in their primordial state, demonstrating that no worldly status or possession will avail on that Day.
The uncircumcised state refers to returning to one's natural creation as when first born, emphasizing that all human distinctions and modifications will be removed, leaving everyone in their essential humanity before the Divine Court.
The Gravity of the Situation
When Lady Aisha inquired about men and women looking at one another in this state, the Prophet's response reveals the profound seriousness of the Day of Judgment. The overwhelming awe, fear, and magnitude of the occasion will consume people's attention completely.
Their concern will be exclusively focused on their own reckoning and fate, leaving no room for worldly distractions or improper glances. The terror of standing before the Almighty will dominate all other considerations.
Spiritual Lessons
This narration teaches humility and reminds believers that all worldly distinctions are temporary. It encourages focusing on spiritual preparation rather than physical appearances or social status.
The hadith also emphasizes the importance of modesty in this world while clarifying that the Next World operates according to different principles where spiritual states override physical circumstances.
