Creation in six days

Surah Fussilat or Ha-meem Sajdah : 9 -12 http://quran.com/41/9-12 Say, "Do you indeed disbelieve in He who created the earth in two days and attribute to Him equals? That is the Lord of the worlds." And He placed on the earth firmly set mountains over its surface, and He blessed it and determined therein its [creatures'] sustenance in four days without distinction - for [the information] of those who ask. Then He directed Himself to the heaven while it was smoke and said to it and to the earth, "Come [into being], willingly or by compulsion." They said, "We have come willingly." And He completed them as seven heavens within two days and inspired in each heaven its command. And We adorned the nearest heaven with lamps and as protection. That is the determination of the Exalted in Might, the Knowing.

this world's life

Islam has come for this world and the next and Allah's help is not just a promise for the hereafter but in this life too. Most surely We help Our messengers, and those who believe, in this world's life and on the day when the witnesses shall stand. [ Surah Mu'min : 51 ] Shakir therefore we are asked to pray for both this life and the hereafter dua : رَبَّنَا آتِنَا فِي الدُّنْيَا حَسَنَةً وَفِي الْآخِرَةِ حَسَنَةً وَقِنَا عَذَابَ النَّارِ
