وَيَوْمَ نُسَيِّرُ ٱلْجِبَالَ وَتَرَى ٱلْأَرْضَ بَارِزَةً وَحَشَرْنَـٰهُمْ فَلَمْ نُغَادِرْ مِنْهُمْ أَحَدًا ﴿47﴾
Translation by Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan & Dr. Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali

Tafsir Ahsan al-Bayan — Hafiz Salahuddin Yusuf
Tafsir Ahsan al-Bayan is a well-known Quran commentary by Hafiz Salahuddin Yusuf, a renowned Salafi (Ahl al-Hadith) scholar from Pakistan. This tafsir explains the meanings of the Quran in accordance with the methodology of the Salaf (early righteous generations), relying on authentic sources and straightforward language. Due to its reliability and adherence to sound Islamic scholarship, the Saudi government publishes and distributes this tafsir among the Hujjaj (pilgrims) visiting the Haramain. The tafsir is originally written in Urdu, translated to English by tohed.com.
47. 1. This is a description of the terrors of the Day of Judgment and the great events. The meaning of "we will set the mountains in motion" is that the mountains will be removed from their places and will fly like carded wool, and the mountains will be like colored carded wool. When such strong things as mountains will be eliminated from the earth, then how will houses, trees, and other similar things be able to maintain their existence? That is why it is further stated: "and you will see the earth as a clear, open plain."
47. 2. That is, the first and the last, the small and the great, the disbeliever and the believer, all will be gathered; no one will remain lying in the depths of the earth, nor will anyone be able to hide anywhere after coming out of the grave.
