Root: رجف

Full Definition

الرَّاجِفَةُ , in the Kur lxxix. 6, means The first blast [of the horn on the day of resurrection]: and الرَّادِفَةُ, in the next verse, “ the second blast: ” or the former means the motionless bodies that shall be in a state of violent motion at the time here spoken of, such as the earth and the mountains; because of the saying in the Kur [lxxiii. 14], يَوةمَ تَرْجُفُ ٱلْأَرْضُ وَٱلْجِبَالُ: and the latter, “ the heaven, and the stars, which shall be cleft and scattered. ”
