[34] The Day of Resurrection, according to our current reckoning, is a day of fifty thousand years. That day will also have a noon and an evening. It is mentioned in a hadith that Allah Almighty will finish the reckoning of people before noon. The people of Paradise will enter Paradise, and the people of Hell will enter Hell, and from this verse it is understood that the people of Paradise will go to sleep in Paradise after noon. Because "Qaylulah" refers to sleeping after noon, and "Maqīlan" refers to the place of sleeping after noon. It is also mentioned in a hadith that for the believers or the people of Paradise, this day of fifty thousand years will feel as light as the time of an obligatory prayer.
