Aya 44
44
يَومَ تَشَقَّقُ الأَرضُ عَنهُم سِراعًا ۚ ذٰلِكَ حَشرٌ عَلَينا يَسيرٌ

Yusuf Ali

The Day when the Earth will be1 rent asunder, from (men) hurrying out: that will be a gathering together,- quite easy for Us.2
  • Men will hurry out from all corners of the earth to answer the call, and the earth itself will be rent asunder. In 25:25 the imagery used was the heaven being rent asunder, and angels coming out in ranks: seen. 3082 Cf. also 84:1-4.
  • It may seem to our material imaginations a difficult task to collect together the souls of all sorts of men, who died in all sorts of conditions at different times, but it will be a different kind of world and creation altogether, and to God all things are not only possible but easy.
