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.
12. 1. That is, when the earth splits, a plant emerges from it; when the earth splits, a spring gushes forth from it, and in the same way, a day will come when the earth will split, and all the dead will come out alive. That is why the earth is called the one that splits and cracks.
