What is the correct interpretation of the word "yansilūn" in verse 51 of Surat Ya-Sin: "And the Horn will be blown; and behold, from the graves to their Lord they will hasten forth," and does it mean "they return swiftly," or "they emerge swiftly," or "they approach swiftly"?

The meaning of "nasal" (نسل) in the Arabic language is to walk quickly, and this is well-known among linguists and exegetes. Perhaps the brother means that people are returning to Allah, as in His Almighty saying: {Those who are certain that they will meet their Lord and that to Him they will return} and His saying: {Indeed we belong to Allah, and indeed to Him we will return} and His saying: {To Him is your return, all of you}.
