(They speak not until He hath spoken) Gabriel does not go ahead of Michael, whether by words or acts, until He commands him, (and they act by His command) and they, i.e. the angels, say and do in accordance with Allah's command.
Al-Jalalayn Commentary
They do not venture to speak before Him — they only speak after He has spoken and they act according to His command that is following His issuing of it.
