Ayat 96.
Until, when Yajuj and Majuj (Gog and Magog) are let loose (from their
barrier), and they swiftly swarm from every mound.
Ayat 97. And the true promise (Day of Resurrection)
shall draw near (of fulfillment). Then (when mankind is resurrected from their
graves), you shall see the eyes of the disbelievers fixedly stare in horror.
(They will say): "Woe to us! We were indeed heedless of this; nay, but we were
Zalimun (polytheists and wrong-doers, etc.)."
[Tafseer] Until the Gog and Magog (people) are
let through (their barrier), and they swiftly swarm from every
hill. For
Gog and Magog see Surah Kahf Ayat 94. The name stands for wild and
lawless tribes who will break their barriers and swarm through the earth. This
will be one of the prognostications of the approaching
Judgement. Then will the true promise draw nigh (of fulfilment): then
behold! the eyes of the Unbelievers will fixedly stare in horror: "Ah! Woe to
us! we were indeed heedless of this; nay, we truly did
wrong!"
Hazrat Zainab (May
Allah be pleased with her) reported: The Messenger of Allah 
[SAWW](PBUH) came to visit me one day frightened and he
[SAWW](PBUH) said, "La ilaha illallah (There is no true God but Allah). Woe to
the Arabs because of an evil which has drawn near! Today an opening of this size
has been made in the barrier restraining Ya'juj and Ma'juj (Gog and Magog
people).'' And he [SAWW](PBUH) made a circle with his thumb and index finger. I said,
``O Messenger of Allah! Shall we perish while still there will be righteous
people among us?'' He [SAWW](PBUH) replied, "Yes, when wickedness prevails".
[Al-Bukhari
Book 04, Chapter 55, Hadith #
565].
Lesson : as
mentioned above in Surah Al-Anbiya Ayat 96."Until, when Yajuj and
Majuj (Gog and Magog) are let loose (from their barrier), and they swiftly swarm
from every mound" This Hadith also tells us about the
ominous of sin. It says that when vice becomes common, then in spite of the
presence of some virtuous persons, that community will be destroyed. But on the
Day of Resurrection, those noble persons who had done their duty of preaching
virtue and checking vice will stand apart from the sinners. Thus this Hadith
induces one to keep away from sins.
