عن أبي سعيد الخدري رضي الله عنه مرفوعاً: «يكشِف ربُّنا عن ساقِه، فيسجدُ له كلُّ مؤمنٍ ومؤمنةٍ، فيبقى كلُّ مَن كان يسجدُ في الدنيا رياءً وسُمْعةً، فيذهبُ ليسجدَ، فيعودَ ظهرُه طبقًا واحدًا».
The Lord, Glorified and Exalted, will reveal His noble Shin on the Day of Judgment, and every believer, male and female, will prostrate to Him. As for the hypocrites who used to prostrate to Allah in the worldly life so as to be seen by people, they will not be able to prostrate because their backs will be made of one vertebra or one straight bone.
They will not be able to bend nor prostrate, because they did not really prostrate to Allah in the worldly life, rather they only prostrated to their worldly purposes. It is not permissible to interpret Allah's Shin as hardship, distress and so on. Rather it is obligatory to affirm this attribute for Allah, the Almighty, without asking 'how', and without drawing resemblance or similitude, and without stripping it of its true meaning.
