📖 Commentary of Verse 18 (Surah Al-Mursalat)

"The day when the trumpet shall be blown, and you will assemble in companies."
(Kanzul Imaan Translation)

✅ The Blowing of the Trumpet [10]

  • Second Blowing of the Trumpet: The second blowing of the trumpet marks the resurrection of all beings. This is when everyone will be raised to appear before Allah for the final judgment.

  • Event Sequence: The Day of Judgment will begin with the first trumpet blast, signaling the end of the world, and will conclude with the sending of people to Paradise and Hell.

  • Blowing as a Means of Blessing: The act of blowing, as seen in the stories of various prophets, is a means of receiving blessings. For example, Hazrat Jibraeel blew into the collar of Sayyidah Maryam’s garment, and Hazrat Isa (peace be upon him) blew life into a person. Similarly, Allah breathed life into Hazrat Adam (peace be upon him). Thus, blowing is a powerful act of divine intervention.

✅ Assembly in Groups [11]

  • Assembly of People: On the Day of Judgment, people will be gathered in separate groups.

  • Groups of Believers and Disbelievers:

    • Believers: They will be assembled in groups with their respective leaders, who will guide them to their final reward.

    • Disbelievers: The disbelievers will also be assembled in groups, each group will be led by their respective leaders, as stated in the verse: "The day when We shall call every people with their leaders" (S17:V71). This illustrates that accountability will be according to the leaders they followed in the world.

(78:18) the Day when the Trumpet shall be blown, and you will come forth in multitudes;[12]


12. This implies the final sounding of the Trumpet at which all dead men will rise back to life forthwith. You implies not only those who were the addressees at that time but all those humans who will have been born from the beginning of creation till Resurrection. For explanation, (Surah Ibrahim, ayat 48) note 57; (Surah Al-Hajj, ayat 1) note 1; (Surah YaSeen, ayat 50-51); (Surah Az-Zumar, ayat 68) note 79.
