Will there be a day after the fifty thousand years of the Day of Judgment have passed, and what about the hadith: "Indeed, in Paradise there is a market which they frequent every Friday"?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The Day of Resurrection is a single day with no night following it, and its duration is "in a Day the measure whereof is fifty thousand years." Paradise has neither night nor day; rather, it is perpetual light. The measure of night and day in it is known by the lowering and raising of veils and doors, or by the appearance of lights from beneath the Throne. The Almighty's saying, "And for them therein their provision morning and evening," means at times similar to mornings and evenings, not that there are nights and days. A Muslim should not preoccupy himself with details of the unseen for which no evidence has been revealed.
