Is it normal to be afraid of kiamat?
Wa alaykum assalam wa rahmatullah,
It's said that fear of Allah is the core of iman and knowledge, as Allah said:
"It is only those who have knowledge among His servants that fear Allah." (35:28)
“The believers are only those who, when Allah is mentioned, their hearts become fearful, and when His verses are recited to them, it increases them in faith; and upon their Lord they rely” [
Al Anfal: 2]
He (Allah) says: “Then at this statement do you wonder? (59). And you laugh and do not weep” [
An-Najm: 59-60]
“And [it is] a Quran which We have separated [by intervals] that you might recite it to the people over a prolonged period. And We have sent it down progressively. (106) Say, “Believe in it or do not believe.” Indeed, those who were given
knowledge before it, when it is recited to them, they fall upon their faces in prostration, (107). And they say, “Exalted is our Lord! Indeed, the promise of our Lord has been fulfilled.” (108). And they fall upon their faces weeping, and it [i.e., the Quran] increases them in humble submission (109)”. [
Al Israa 17:106-109]
The prophet
said in the hadith related to the seven types of people whom Allah will shade on the day of resurrection, when there is no shade but His: »and a man remembered Allah while he is alone and his eyes overflowed with tears out of His fear« [
Narrated by Al Bukhari and Muslim]
