The Holy Quran 27:82 — Surah An-Naml

Arabic text

۞ وَإِذَا وَقَعَ ٱلْقَوْلُ عَلَيْهِمْ أَخْرَجْنَا لَهُمْ دَآبَّةً مِّنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ تُكَلِّمُهُمْ أَنَّ ٱلنَّاسَ كَانُوا۟ بِـَٔايَـٰتِنَا لَا يُوقِنُونَ

Translation

When the promise (Qiyaamah) will be fulfilled to them (mankind), We shall bring for them a creature from the earth, which will speak to them (on Allaah's behalf saying) "People (especially the Kuffaar) are not convinced about Our Aayaat." (However, they will now be convinced when they see for themselves, but it is now too late. One of the last signs before Qiyaamah will be the appearance of the "creature of the earth" who will emerge from the earth from mount Saffa after which it will make its appearance in the Masjidul Haraam. The creature will cause the faces of the Mu'mineen to shine brightly and the Mu'mineen will be clearly distinguished from the Kuffaar. Details of the creature can be found in the detailed books of Ahadeeth.)

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

The emergence of the “beast of the earth” and its speech: Shah [Abd al-Qadir] ﵀ writes: “Before the Hour, Mount Safa in Makkah will split open, and from it a creature will emerge which will speak to people, saying that the Hour is now near, and by marking them it will separate the true believers from the hidden deniers” (Mudih al-Quran).
