Definition of Hms
Al-Hams refers to whispering.
The Almighty says: 'You will hear only a whisper' (Ta-Ha 108).
That Day, everyone will follow [the call of] the Caller [with] no deviation therefrom, and [all] voices will be stilled before the Most Merciful, so you will not hear except a whisper [of footsteps].
