Qatadah and Ikrimah said;

"They will humble themselves and surrender on that Day,"

i.e., they will all surrender to Allah, there will not be anyone who does not hear and obey.

As Allah says;

أَسْمِعْ بِهِمْ وَأَبْصِرْ يَوْمَ يَأْتُونَنَا

How clearly will they see and hear, the Day when they will appear before Us! (19;38)

meaning, they will see and hear better than they have ever seen and heard before.

And Allah says;

وَلَوْ تَرَى إِذِ الْمُجْرِمُونَ نَاكِسُواْ رُءُوسِهِمْ عِندَ رَبِّهِمْ رَبَّنَأ أَبْصَرْنَا وَسَمِعْنَا

And (all) faces shall be humbled before the Ever Living, the Sustainer. (20;111)
