Who drives the people to the gathering place in this world and in the Hereafter?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We heard in the lesson from your eminence that the ones who drive the people to the gathering place are the angels, and a hadith has come that the one who drives the people is the fire that emerges from the land of Yemen, so I ask for clarification.

Answer:
This is in this world, in this world before the Hour. This is one of the signs of the Hour: a fire that emerges from the depths of Aden drives the people to the gathering place. This is in this world. As for the Hereafter, the angels will be in rows behind the jinn and mankind.
O company of jinn and mankind, if you are able to pass beyond the regions of the heavens and the earth, then passيَا مَعْشَرَ الْجِنِّ وَالْإِنسِ إِنِ اسْتَطَعْتُمْ أَن تَنفُذُوا مِنْ أَقْطَارِ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ فَانفُذُوا
[Ar-Rahman 55:33]
. Allah will gather the jinn and mankind on a single plain, and the rows of angels will be behind them, surrounding them. Yes.
