(And (remind them of) the Day when the Trumpet will be blown) this is the blowing of death, (and all who are in the heavens) the angels (and the earth) of created beings (will start in fear) will die, (save him whom Allah wills) from among the dwellers of heaven: Gabriel, Michael, Seraphiel and the angel of death, for these will not die upon the first blowing of the Trumpet, but they will die after that. (And all) i.e. the dwellers of the heavens and earth (come unto Him, humbled) they will come to Allah on the Day of Judgement abased and humbled.
