Sahih Muslim 2859a (Book 53, Hadith 67) #14251
The Seriousness of the Day of Resurrection

SUMMARY: On the Day of Resurrection, people will be gathered together in a serious state, barefooted, naked and uncircumcised.

'A'isha reported that she heard Allah's Messenger as saying: 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 said: 'A'isha, the matter would be too serious for them to look to one another.
وَحَدَّثَنِي زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ حَاتِمِ بْنِ أَبِي صَغِيرَةَ، حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ، عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ ‏"‏ يُحْشَرُ النَّاسُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ حُفَاةً عُرَاةً غُرْلاً ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ النِّسَاءُ وَالرِّجَالُ جَمِيعًا يَنْظُرُ بَعْضُهُمْ إِلَى بَعْضٍ قَالَ ‏"‏ يَا عَائِشَةُ الأَمْرُ أَشَدُّ مِنْ أَنْ يَنْظُرَ بَعْضُهُمْ إِلَى بَعْضٍ

QUICK LESSONS:
Take faith seriously; Live life according to Allah's teachings; Prepare oneself for judgment day
EXPLANATIONS:
On the Day of Judgment, all people will be gathered together in a serious state. They will be barefooted and naked without any clothing or jewelry to cover them. Additionally, they will not have been circumcised as is customary for many cultures today. When 'A'isha heard this she asked if men and women would see each other in such a state but Allah's Messenger said that it would be too serious for them to look at one another. This hadith teaches us that we should take our faith seriously and prepare ourselves for the day when we are judged by Allah Almighty. We should strive to live our lives according to His teachings so that we can enter Paradise on the day of judgment with dignity and honor instead of shame and embarrassment.
