Persian source with Shoghi Effendi’s authorized English translation. Paragraph 123 of 291.

Source (Persian)

بلکه مقصود از صور، صور محمّدی است که بر همه ممکنات دميده شد و قيامت، قيام آن حضرت بود بر امر الهی. و غافلين که در قبور اجساد مرده بودند همه را به خلعت جديده ايمانيّه مخلّع فرمود و به حيات تازه بديعه زنده نمود. اين است وقتی که آن جمال احديّه اراده فرمود که رمزی از اسرار بعث و حشر و جنّت و نار و قيامت اظهار فرمايد جبرئيل وحی اين آيه آورد : "فَسَيُنغِضُونَ إلَيکَ رُؤوسَهُمْ و يَقُولُونَ مَتَی هُوَ قُل عَسَی اَنْ يَکُونَ قَريباً." يعنی زود است اين گمراهان وادی ضلالت سرهای خود را از روی استهزا حرکت می دهند و می گويند چه زمان خواهد اين امور ظاهر شد؟ تو در جواب بگو که شايد اينکه نزديک باشد. تلويح همين يک آيه مردم را کافی است اگر به نظر دقيق ملاحظه نمايند.

Shoghi Effendi Translation

Nay, by “trumpet” is meant the trumpet-call of Muhammad’s Revelation, which was sounded in the heart of the universe, and by “resurrection” is meant His own rise to proclaim the Cause of God. He bade the erring and wayward arise and speed out of the sepulchres of their bodies, arrayed them with the beauteous robe of faith, and quickened them with the breath of a new and wondrous life. Thus at the hour when Muhammad, that divine Beauty, purposed to unveil one of the mysteries hidden in the symbolic terms “resurrection,” “judgment,” “paradise,” and “hell,” Gabriel, the Voice of Inspiration, was heard saying: “Erelong will they wag their heads at Thee, and say, ‘When shall this be?’ Say: ‘Perchance it is nigh.’” The implications of this verse alone suffice the peoples of the world, were they to ponder it in their hearts.
