Explanatory Note

The term used for ‘the earth’ here refers to a bright white earth which is the land of resurrection. We do not know its exact location. All we know of it is that which the Qur’an or the authentic traditions of the Prophet relate. We have no intention of adding anything unauthoritative to their account. Other Qur’anic statements lead us to the conclusion that this one blast is most probably the second blow on the Trumpet, i.e. the blow of resurrection. The expression used here gives a sense of speed. The blast itself is associated with speed, and the general rhythm of the surah is a rapid one. Terrified hearts also beat fast. Hence the perfect harmony between the sense, the rhythm, the scenes and the surah as a whole.
