Translation, Commentary & Explanation of Chapter 18 Al-Kahfi.
[47] On the day WE make the mountains move and you will
see the Earth flat and bare. And WE gather them all.
And WE will not leave a single one of them.
[48] And they will be paraded before your Lord in rows.
Definitely, you have come to US just as WE have
created you at the first time.
Yes indeed! though you have said that WE will not
fix a time to meet you.
[49]
Then the report book of life will be presented
to all mankind. And you will see that those who
have done many sinful things will be very
frightened of what are written in their report
book.
And after seeing the contents of their books,
the sinful people will exclaim,
"O we will be in trouble.
What kind of book is this
that never omit our smallest sins
and the biggest one,
but rather it records all incidents."
They will find that whatever they have done
during their lifetime, are all recorded in this
report book.
Your LORD will not discriminate anyone.

Imam Jalalain commented that :-
On that day WE will make the mountains disappear from the face of the Earth and they become like flying dust. Then there will be nothing left on Earth, that is, no mountains, no plants and no rivers.
WE will gather all human beings, wether believers or unbelievers, and no one is left behind.
That each particular row represent a certain nation. Every individual come to meet ALLAH alone, without shoes, naked and not circumcised.

My understanding from Harun Yahya commentary in his book
"The signs of The End Times in Surat Al-Kahf" :-
This universe has its fixed time, known as "The Hour". Only ALLAH knows when the Hour will occur.
"Truly ALLAH has knowledge of the Hour, sends down abundant rain and knows what is in the womb. No one knows what it will earn tomorrow, and no one knows where he will die. ALLAH is All-Knowing and All-Aware.
[Surah Luqman Verse 34]
Surah Al-Kahfi relates some of the people's presumptions about when the Hour will come.
But...most people believe that life on Earth will continue forever and that the Hour will not come.
They think that death is nothingness and it is the end of the history of a person.
They mock that Judgement Day is a myth.
With this verse, GOD is saying that, although the Hour is the end of this world, but, it is not the final end of the history of human beings.
The Hour is the beginning of the Eternal Life in the Hereafter, that is, the Kingdom of God.
After the Hour, man will be brought to the Judgement Day, where we will be paraded before GOD.
GOD created us from nothing. When our parents got married and our fathers' sperm were discharged into our mothers' wombs, it was our beginning.
Then GOD turns the sperm into blood clot, and then it became spongy meat, and then slowly the bones came into shape and we became a baby in our mothers womb.
We are thankful to GOD that we were born and survive until today. Some babies were lost in miscarriages, whilesome other babies died when they were very very young.
Therefore, this verse is telling us that when we die and/or after The Hour, which ever come first, we will return to GOD, in the manner before we were born.
Most learned scholars said that, we will exist in the Hereafter in the form of our original souls.
Until today nobody knows what is the shape of the souls, although some writers wrote that they are in the form of birds.
Anyway, my friends, do not be afraid of the Judgement Day, because GOD says in the Quran,
"My servants, you will feel no fear today, you will know no sorrow"
[Chapter Az-Zukhruf Verse 68].
All we have to do, now, and urgently now, is to make sure we are the good servants of GOD.
Thanks for reading my share of thoughts.
