Qiyamah, also known as the Day of Resurrection, is the final day of judgment in Islamic eschatology. It is believed that on this day, Allah (God) will resurrect and judge all individuals who have ever lived, including Muslims and non-Muslims. The day of Qiyamah is considered to be a time of great upheaval and chaos, as the earth and sky will be transformed and all living beings will be held accountable for their deeds.
Muslims believe that on the day of Qiyamah, there will be a great trumpet blast which will signal the beginning of the end of the world. The dead will be resurrected and gathered together for judgment. Good deeds and bad deeds will be weighed and measured, and each person will be held accountable for their actions.
The concept of Qiyamah is mentioned numerous times in the Quran, and is considered to be one of the six articles of faith in Islam. Muslims are taught to prepare for Qiyamah by living a righteous life, performing good deeds, and following the teachings of the Quran and the Prophet Muhammad.
Here are some Quran verses on Qiyamah (the Day of Resurrection):
"And the Trumpet will be blown, and all who are in the heavens and all who are on the earth will fall dead, except those whom Allah wills. Then it will be blown again, and behold they will be standing, looking on." (Quran 39:68)

"When the earth is shaken with its [final] earthquake. And the earth discharges its burdens. And man says, 'What is [wrong] with it?' - That Day, it will report its news.

"On that Day, the sky will be like molten brass, and the mountains like wool. And no friend will ask about his friend, though they may see each other.

But it will not be enough." (Surah Al-Ma'arij, 70:8-14)
