Surah Ya-Sin — 36:51

وَنُفِخَ فِى ٱلصُّورِ فَإِذَا هُم مِّنَ ٱلْأَجْدَاثِ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِمْ يَنسِلُونَ

Wa nufikha fis-soori faizaa hum minal ajdaasi ilaa Rabbihim yansiloon

I zadmą w trąbę! I oto oni, z grobów, do swojego Pana pospieszą i

And the trumpet is blown, and at once they pour forth from their graves to their Lord.

Reflection

Two soundings stand in this passage: the blast at verse 49 that seizes people mid-argument, and the trumpet here that brings them out, which commentary has long read as the blast of terror followed by the blast of rising. Yansilūn describes a quick streaming gait, the same verb used of Gog and Magog hurrying down from every height. The word for grave in the verse after is a resting place, a bed someone is woken from.
