And Our command for a thing which We want to bring into existence is but a single word like the twinkling of an eye in terms of speed and this is the saying of kun ‘Be’ whereat it comes into existence. His command when He wills a thing is just to say to it ‘Be’ and it is Q. 3682.
Ibn Abbas Commentary
(And Our commandment) concerning the coming of the Hour (is but one (commandment)) is but one word, (as the twinkling of an eye) in its swiftness. It is also said that (We have created every thing) means: We have created for everything something similar to it and also that which agrees with it of clothes and things.
