Ibn Abbas Commentary

(And the earth shineth with the light of her Lord) it is also said: with the justice of her Lord, (and the Book is set up) on the right and left hands of people; the book referred to here is the register of the Guardian angels, (and the Prophets) who were not messengers (and the witnesses) i.e. the messengers (are brought) it is also said that this means: and the prophets, messengers and witnesses-the witnesses of the messengers against their own folk-are brought, (and it is judged between them) and the prophets (with truth) with justice, (and they are not wronged) their good deeds will not be diminished nor will their evil deeds be increased.

And the earth will shine with the light of its Lord when God reveals Himself for the passing of judgement and the Book of deeds shall be set in place for the Reckoning and the prophets and witnesses namely Muhammad (s) and his community will be brought to bear witness that the messengers delivered the Message to their respective communities. And judgement will be made between them with truth in other words justly and they will not be wronged in a single thing.
