🌍 When the Earth is Stretched – Tafseer of Ayah 84:3

🌍 The Earth Flattening and Everything Being Leveled

On the Day of Resurrection, the earth will undergo a complete transformation:

🌍 The earth will be stretched out, expanding and losing its natural shape.
⛰️ Mountains will crumble, turning into dust, and no height or depth will remain.
🏗️ Buildings and structures will collapse, reducing entire cities to ruins.
⚖️ All places will become equal, with no valleys or elevations, making way for judgment.
📖 Every hidden deed will be exposed, and no secret will remain concealed.

Lesson:
This verse reminds us of Allah’s ultimate power and the temporary nature of this world, urging mankind to prepare for the Hereafter.

Ala-Maududi

(84:3) and when the earth is stretched out[2]


2. When the earth is stretched out: when the oceans and rivers are filled up, the mountains are crushed to pieces and scattered away, and the earth is leveled and turned into a smooth plain. In Surah TaHa, the same thing has been expressed, thus: He will turn the earth into an empty level plain, wherein you will neither see any curve nor crease. (Surah TaHa, ayat 106-107). Hakim in Mustadrak has related through authentic channels on the authority of Jabir bin Abdullah a saying of the Prophet (peace be upon him) to the effect: On the Resurrection Day the earth will be flattened out and spread out like the table-cloth; then there will hardly be room on it for men to place their feet. To understand this saying one should keep in mind the fact that on that Day all men who will have been born from the first day of creation till Resurrection, will be resurrected simultaneously and produced in the divine court. For gathering together such a great multitude of the people it is inevitable that the oceans, rivers, mountains, jungles, ravines and all high and low areas be leveled and the entire globe of the earth be turned into a vast plain so that all individuals of human race may have room on it to stand on their feet.

(3) And when the earth has been extended[1889]

[1889]- i.e., stretched flat and spread out.
