Tafsir jalalayn

On the day when (yawma substitutes for the previous yawma, with the intervening [statement] being a parenthetical) the earth is split asunder (read tashaqqaqu, or tashshaqqaqu, where the original second t' [of tatashaqqaqu] has been assimilated with it [the shn]) from them, [they will come] hastening forth (sir`an; [sir`] the plural of sar`, a circumstantial qualifier referring to an implied clause, that is to say [together they would read] fa-yakhrujna musri`na, `they come forth hastening'). That is an easy gathering for Us (dhlika hashrun `alayn yasr; there is here a separation of the noun from its adjective by what is semantically connected to it, for the purpose of specification -- which is [rhetorically] unobjectionable; dhlika, `that', is meant to point out the signification of the `gathering', which itself is [also] predicated by this [demonstrative particle], and this signification is the bringing back to life after extinction and the assembly for the exposition and the reckoning [before God]).

Tafseer Ibn Kathir

يَوْمَ تَشَقَّقُ الاَْرْضُ عَنْهُمْ سِرَاعًا

On the Day when the earth shall be cleft, from off them (they will come out) hastening forth.

Allah the Exalted and Most Honored will send down rain from the sky. From that rain the bodies of the creations will grow while they are in their graves, just as the seed grows in soil in the aftermath of rain. When the bodies grow to their full strength, Allah the Exalted will command angel Israfil and he will blow in the Trumpet (for a second time). The souls will be enclosed in a hole in the Trumpet. When Israfil blows in the Trumpet, the souls will depart from it and will fly between the heavens and earth. Allah the Exalted and Most Honored, will declare,

"By My grace and power, each soul shall return to the body that it used to inhabit,"

and indeed, every soul will return to its body. The soul will enter its body just as poison enters the body, then the earth will be uncovered from above them, and they will all stand and head towards the Reckoning place hastening to obey the command of Allah the Exalted and Most Honored,

مُّهْطِعِينَ إِلَى الدَّاعِ يَقُولُ الْكَـفِرُونَ هَـذَا يَوْمٌ عَسِرٌ

Hastening towards the caller. The disbelievers will say;"This is a hard Day." (54;8),

and,

يَوْمَ يَدْعُوكُمْ فَتَسْتَجِيبُونَ بِحَمْدِهِ وَتَظُنُّونَ إِن لَّبِثْتُمْ إِلاَّ قَلِيلً

On the Day when He will call you, and you will answer (His Call) with (words of) His praise and obedience, and you will think that you have stayed (in this world) but a little while! (17;52)

In the Sahih, it is recorded that Anas said that the Messenger of Allah said,

أَنَا أَوَّلُ مَنْ تَنْشَقُّ عَنْهُ الاَْرْض

The earth will open up first around me.

Allah the Exalted and Most Honored said,

ذَلِكَ حَشْرٌ عَلَيْنَا يَسِيرٌ



That will be a gathering, quite easy for Us.

`bringing them back to life is easy for Us and effortless.'

Allah the Exalted and Most Honored said,

وَمَأ أَمْرُنَأ إِلاَّ وَحِدَةٌ كَلَمْحٍ بِالْبَصَرِ

And Our commandment is but one as the twinkling of an eye. (54;50)

and,

مَّا خَلْقُكُمْ وَلَا بَعْثُكُمْ إِلاَّ كَنَفْسٍ وَحِدَةٍ إِنَّ اللَّهَ سَمِيعٌ بَصِيرٌ

The creation of you all and the resurrection of you all are only as of a single person. Verily, Allah is All-Hearer, All-Seer. (31;28)
