Saheeh International

The Day that the Spirit and the angels will stand in rows, they will not speak except for one whom the Most Merciful permits, and he will say what is correct.

Tafsir of "Ibn Kathir" (English)

يَوْمَ يَقُومُ الرُّوحُ وَالْمَلَيِكَةُ صَفًّا لاَّ يَتَكَلَّمُونَThe Day that Ar-Ruh and the angels will stand forth in rows, they will not speak. (78:38)The word Ruh here is referring to the angel Jibril. This has been said by Ash-Sha`bi, Sa`id bin Jubayr and Ad-Dahhak.This is as Allah says,نَزَلَ بِهِ الرُّوحُ الاٌّمِينُعَلَى قَلْبِكَ لِتَكُونَ مِنَ الْمُنْذِرِينَWhich the trustworthy Ruh has brought down. Upon your heart that you may be of the warners. (26:193-194)Muqatil bin Hayyan said,"The Ruh is the noblest of the angels, the closest of them to the Lord, and the one who delivers the revelation."Allah said;إِلاَّ مَنْ أَذِنَ لَهُ الرحْمَنُexcept him whom Ar-Rahman allows,This is similar to Allah's statement,يَوْمَ يَأْتِ لَا تَكَلَّمُ نَفْسٌ إِلاَّ بِإِذْنِهِOn the Day when it comes, no person shall speak except by His leave. (11:105)This is similar to what has been confirmed in the Sahih, that the Prophet said,وَلَا يَتَكَلَّمُ يَوْمَيِذٍ إِلاَّ الرُّسُلAnd none will speak on that Day except the Messengers."Allah said,وَقَالَ صَوَابًاand he will speak what is right.meaning, the truth. And from the truth is the fact that there is no god worthy of worship except Allah.This is as Abu Salih and Ikrimah both said.In reference to Allah's statement
