Al-Qamar · 54:7Makkah

Eyes lowered, they pour out like locusts.

The crowds of the Day of Resurrection

The scene
the graves
they come out
eyes humbledcovered with disgrace
like
spreading locustscrowds in every direction
What changes that Day
proud eyesthat mocked the signs
humbled eyesthat cannot look up

Ibn Kathir says the deniers' eyes will be covered with disgrace. They will gather toward the place of Reckoning in such haste and crowds, as if they were locusts spreading.

You have been in a stadium crowd, or a station at rush hour, everyone moving at once. Now picture everyone who ever lived, all at once, all heading one way. The question is how you want your eyes to be that Day.

I will face that Day with my head up, whatever I did.

How I use my eyes now decides whether they are lowered then.

Try this

Lower your gaze once today from something you should not be looking at.

Tafsir Ibn Kathir (shared passage from 54:6)

So withdraw from them. The Day that the caller will call (them) to a terrible thing (6)They will come forth, with humbled eyes from (their) graves as if they were locusts spread abroad (7)Hastening towards the caller. The disbelievers will say: "This is a hard Day. (8)

The terrible End the Disbelievers will meet on the Day of Resurrection

Allah the Exalted says, 'O Muhammad, turn away from these people who, when they witness a miracle, they deny it and say that this is continuous magic.' Turn away from them and wait until,

 يَوْمَ يَدْعُ الدَّاعِ إِلَىٰ شَيْءٍ نُكُرٍ

(The Day that the caller will call (them) to a terrible thing.) to the Recompense and the afflictions, horrors and tremendous hardships that it brings forth,

خُشَّعًا أَبْصَارُهُمْ

(with humbled eyes), their eyes will be covered with disgrace,

يَخْرُجُونَ مِنَ الْأَجْدَاثِ كَأَنَّهُمْ جَرَادٌ مُنْتَشِرٌ

(they will come forth from (their) graves as if they were locusts spread abroad.) They will gather towards the area of Reckoning in such haste and crowds, in response to the caller, as if they were crowds of locusts spreading all about. Allah said,

مُهْطِعِينَ

(Hastening) meaing hurriedly,

إِلَى الدَّاعِ

(towards the caller.) without being able to hesitate or slow down,

يَقُولُ الْكَافِرُونَ هَٰذَا يَوْمٌ عَسِرٌ

(The disbelievers will say: "This is a hard Day."), meaing, 'this is a hard, terrible, horrifying and distressful Day,'

فَذَٰلِكَ يَوْمَئِذٍ يَوْمٌ عَسِيرٌ - عَلَى الْكَافِرِينَ غَيْرُ يَسِيرٍ

(Truly, that Day will be a Hard Day – far from easy for the disbelievers.)(74:9-10)
