The Holy Quran 18:8 — Surah Al-Kahf

Arabic text

وَإِنَّا لَجَـٰعِلُونَ مَا عَلَيْهَا صَعِيدًا جُرُزًا

Translation

(However appealing these things appear, they will all come to an end when) We shall certainly turn everything on earth into an open plain (on the Day of Qiyaamah).

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

On the Day of Resurrection the earth will become a bare plain: that is, one day all the grass, straw, trees and so on will be cut away and the earth will be made a bare plain. Let those who are enchanted by its finery and adornment understand well that this glitter and tinsel is not something that will last.
