6. 1. "یصدر، یرجع (will return)" — this is the opposite of ورود, meaning after coming out of the graves, they will return towards the place of reckoning, or after the reckoning, they will return towards Paradise and Hell. "اشتاتا, متفرق," meaning in groups, some will be fearless, some will be fearful, some will have white faces like the people of Paradise, and some will have black faces, which will be a sign of their being from Hell. The white ones will turn to the right side, and some to the left side. Or these different groups will be based on religions, sects, and deeds and actions.
6. 1. That is, the earth will narrate its news so that the deeds of people may be shown to them.
