Tafsir

﴿ﻳَﻮْﻣَﺌِﺬٍ ﺗُﺤَﺪِّﺙُ ﺃَﺧْﺒَﺎﺭَﻫَﺎ ﴾
(That Day it will declare its information.) meaning, it will speak of what the people did upon its surface. Imam Ahmad, At-Tirmidhi and Abu `Abdur-Rahman An-
Nasa'i all recorded a Hadith from Abu Hurayrah -- and in the wording of An-Nasa'i's version it states -- that he said, "The Messenger of Allah recited this
Ayah,

﴿ﻳَﻮْﻣَﺌِﺬٍ ﺗُﺤَﺪِّﺙُ ﺃَﺧْﺒَﺎﺭَﻫَﺎ ﴾
(That Day it will declare its information.)
Then he said,
‏«ﺃَﺗَﺪْﺭُﻭﻥَ ﻣَﺎ ﺃَﺧْﺒَﺎﺭُﻫَﺎ؟‏»
(Do you know what is its information). They said, `Allah and His Messenger know best.' He said,
‏« ﻓَﺈِﻥَّ ﺃَﺧْﺒَﺎﺭَﻫَﺎ ﺃَﻥْ ﺗَﺸْﻬَﺪَ ﻋَﻠَﻰ
ﻛُﻞِّ ﻋَﺒْﺪٍ ﻭَﺃَﻣَﺔٍ ﺑِﻤَﺎ ﻋَﻤِﻞَ ﻋَﻠَﻰ
ﻇَﻬْﺮِﻫَﺎ ﺃَﻥْ ﺗَﻘُﻮﻝَ: ﻋَﻤِﻞَ ﻛَﺬَﺍ
ﻭَﻛَﺬَﺍ ﻳَﻮْﻡَ ﻛَﺬَﺍ ﻭَﻛَﺬَﺍ، ﻓَﻬَﺬِﻩِ
ﺃَﺧْﺒَﺎﺭُﻫَﺎ‏»
(Verily, its information is that it will testify against every male and female servant, about what they did upon its surface. It
will say that he did such and such on such and such day. So this is its
information.)''

Then At-Tirmidhi said,
"This Hadith is Sahih Gharib.''
