The Holy Quran 25:25 — Surah Al-Furqan

Arabic text

وَيَوْمَ تَشَقَّقُ ٱلسَّمَآءُ بِٱلْغَمَـٰمِ وَنُزِّلَ ٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةُ تَنزِيلًا

Translation

(Do not forget) The day (of Qiyaamah) when the sky will be split and from the clouds the angels will descend in large numbers (onto the Plain of Resurrection).

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

The descent of the royal canopy of Almighty Allah and of the angels: on the Day of Resurrection, after the heavens are split open, something like a cloud will be seen descending from above, in which there will be a special tajalli (manifestation) of Almighty Allah. We express this as a royal canopy (the parasol held over a king).
