The Holy Quran 50:41 — Surah Qaf

Arabic text

وَٱسْتَمِعْ يَوْمَ يُنَادِ ٱلْمُنَادِ مِن مَّكَانٍ قَرِيبٍ

Translation

Listen attentively (to what has already been said and what is still to come). (Do not forget) The day when the caller (the angel Israafeel عليه الصلاة والسلام) will call (blow the trumpet) from a near place (because wherever one will be, the sound will seem nearby or from Baitul Muqaddas).

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

The Trumpet will be blown from a near place: it is said that the Trumpet will be blown upon the rock of Bayt al-Maqdis (Jerusalem), and that is why it is called “near”. Or the meaning is that its sound will seem near everywhere and will be heard equally by all.
