I first envisioned this painting during Ramadan, thinking it was inspired by a verse from the Quran. Later I realized it was actually based on a Hadith. The Prophet (PBUH) said:
 
“There are seven whom Allah will shade with His shade on the Day when there will be no shade except His shade:
  A just ruler.
  A youth who grew up in the worship of Allah.
  A man whose heart is attached to the mosques.
  Two people who love each other for the sake of Allah, meeting and parting for His sake.
  A man who resists the call of a woman of beauty and status, saying
'I fear Allah.’
  A person who gives charity so secretly that his left hand does not know what his right hand has given.
  A person who remembers Allah in solitude, and his eyes shed tears”
(Sahih al-Bukhari, 660; Sahih Muslim, 1031)
 
This painting captures the majesty and mercy of Allah's Throne (Arsh) on the Day of Judgment, where His shade will be the only refuge.
 
The Throne's Edge: The painting shows the endless expanse of Allah's Throne, glowing with celestial light and radiating divine majesty. This painting captures a humbling glimpse of the edge of Allah's Throne, an immense and overwhelming structure that dominates the entire canvas. Its sheer scale and divine presence convey an overpowering sense of majesty, making everything else appear minuscule in comparison.
 
   The People: Small, fragile figures are scattered across the canvas: Some are walking tirelessly towards the shade, faces filled with determination and hope.
  Others have already reached it, their postures showing deep gratitude and relief.
 
This artwork is more than a visual experience-it is an invitation to reflect, to strive, and to seek a place under the Shade of Allah's Throne on a Day when there will be no other shade but His.
