On the hadith: (The people will be gathered on a white, smooth ground like the grain of a date).

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Regarding Sahl ibn Sa'd in "the two Sahihs," he said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) say:
The people will be gathered on a white, smooth ground like the grain of a date يُحشر الناس على أرض بيضاء عفراء كقرصة النَّقي
Sahih Ibn Hibban 64:230
, and there is a hadith of Aisha in Muslim when she asked him about the location of the people on the day the earth is changed to another earth; he said:
On the Sirat على الصراط
. But we know that the people are driven to the plain of assembly first, before they reach the Sirat; so will there be a change before reaching the Sirat? Please inform us, may Allah reward you with good.

The Shaykh : I have no answer regarding such matters of the unseen, and it is not permissible to delve into them with opinion, but only as He said:
and they offer a complete submission وَيُسَلِّمُوا تَسْلِيمًا
.
Yes.
