[وَأَلْقَوْاْ إِلَى اللَّهِ يَوْمَئِذٍ السَّلَمَ]

(And they will offer (their full) submission to Allah on that Day,) Qatadah and `Ikrimah said: "They will humble themselves and surrender on that Day,'' i.e., they will all surrender to Allah, there will not be anyone who does not hear and obey. As Allah says:

[أَسْمِعْ بِهِمْ وَأَبْصِرْ يَوْمَ يَأْتُونَنَا]

(How clearly will they see and hear, the Day when they will appear before Us!) [19:38] meaning, they will see and hear better than they have ever seen and heard before. And Allah says:

[وَلَوْ تَرَى إِذِ الْمُجْرِمُونَ نَاكِسُواْ رُءُوسِهِمْ عِندَ رَبِّهِمْ رَبَّنَآ أَبْصَرْنَا وَسَمِعْنَا]

(And if you only could see when the guilty hang their heads before their Lord (saying): "Our Lord! We have now seen and heard.'') [32:12]

[وَعَنَتِ الْوُجُوهُ لِلْحَىِّ الْقَيُّومِ]

(And (all) faces shall be humbled before the Ever Living, the Sustainer.) [20:111] meaning, they will humble and submit themselves.

[وَأَلْقَوْاْ إِلَى اللَّهِ يَوْمَئِذٍ السَّلَمَ وَضَلَّ عَنْهُم مَّا كَانُواْ يَفْتَرُونَ ]

(And they will offer (their full) submission to Allah on that Day, and what they falsely invented will wander away from them.) The things that they used to worship which were all based on fabrications and lies, will all disappear, and they will have no helper or supporter, and no one to turn to.
