Commentary
﴿They will surely be gathered﴾ in the passive participle form, in the place where the reckoning will take place. Since their gathering is gradual, it is expressed with the ultimate, so it is said: ﴿to a time﴾ meaning a time and place ﴿of a known day﴾ meaning a specified one with Allah. It is such that it can be known by what He has of signs. And the time is what has been appointed for something, whether of time or place, meaning any limit.
