Sura 21
Aya 96
96
حَتّىٰ إِذا فُتِحَت يَأجوجُ وَمَأجوجُ وَهُم مِن كُلِّ حَدَبٍ يَنسِلونَ

Yusuf Ali

Until the Gog and Magog (people)1 are let through (their barrier), and they swiftly swarm from every hill.
  • For Gog and Magog see n. 2439 to 18:94. Their geographical position was discussed in Appendix 6. Here I do not think we are concerned with their geographical position. The name stands for wild and lawless tribes who will break their barriers and swarm through the earth. This will be one of the prognostications of the approaching Judgment.
