everyone opposed him. The prophet of God beseeched all and sundry,
including the religious and political leaders, but apart from a handful of
people, no one heeded his call. His message was straightforward:
instead of confrontation with Nebuchadnezzar, reform your faith and
moral attributes!
The most dramatic scene on the screen was the one in which
Prophet Jeremiah
PBUH
Thus, this Prophet of God was accused of being an agent of
Nebuchadnezzar, hung upside down in a well as punishment and then
tied up and imprisoned in a cage. Revolt against Nebuchadnezzar was
announced. In reply, Nebuchadnezzar attacked and annihilated them as
if he personified the wrath of God.
was shown attending the court of the Jewish king
with a wooden yoke around his neck. It was a last effort on his part to
make people understand that their current situation was similar to an
animal with a wooden yoke around its neck. If the animal rebelled and
tried to break free at this stage, an iron yoke would replace the wooden
one. Nevertheless, the courtiers and intellectuals, paying no heed,
declared him an agent of Nebuchadnezzar instead. The king moved
ahead and personally cut the wooden yoke around his neck with his
sword. With that, the Almighty made the decision that this yoke would
now be replaced with iron shackles.
Thereafter, the opening scene was repeated on the screen in which
Jerusalem was being rained with the fury of God. Prophet Jeremiah
PBUH
“O people, I explained the situation to you threadbare. Yet you
preferred to listen to the political jugglers and bigoted & ignorant
religious leaders. You overlooked the ailments of your society. You lived
your lives oblivious to the ills of the society around you and
commandments of God; hence the punishment for your doings!”
opened his eyes, looked around, and saw the denuded copses and utter
destruction all around him. He then said in a loud voice:
Prophet Jeremiah
PBUH
then looked towards the sky and muttered,
“The day for the perfect justice will come. It will surely come, but after a
little while”.

With that, the scene being projected ended. A raging, thunderous
noise shook the environment. The Almighty’s anger was at its peak. The
treatment meted out to his prophet by the people of Israel was so
heinous that the punishment inflicted to them through Nebuchadnezzar
was absolutely insufficient. The time for the real punishment had now
arrived.
The Almighty ordered that anyone involved in the mal-treatment of
Prophet Jeremiah at any level or scale be brought forward.
First, a group consisting of the king, the peers and the clerics was
produced, all of who were responsible for the tragedy. It included those
involved in ordering and executing the actual punishment as well as
those responsible for abetting his declaration as an agent of
Nebuchadnezzar. All of them were sentenced to Hell.
Thereafter, the accountability of people of that era started on an
individual basis. All those who had committed crimes against the
prophet of God were dealt with in a manner befitting them, and the
worst punishment was awarded to each of them.
This time, I stayed in the Plane much longer and watched many
people being put through the accountability process. To be fair, I had
seen it only a few times before, but it was evident to me now that the
Almighty was carrying out a full and extremely comprehensive
accountability. Deeds of every person were being reviewed in the light
of his circumstances, environment, and personality whose development
was in turn, influenced by upbringing, grooming, and various other
factors. Even the most insignificant deed was recorded in the Book of
Deeds. The intent, motivators, and actions were all being evaluated. The
evidence included records kept by angels, testimony of other human
beings as well as of inanimate objects in the environment; even the very
organs of people were testifying. Final decision was reached in the light
of all these testimonies. This exhaustive process ensured that nobody
was wronged in the slightest. If there was even the minutest chance of
forgiveness, it was provided. God’s absolute justice and perfect
beneficence were demonstrated in such a way that words failed to
paint the right picture.
