Explanatory Note

Those unbelievers hastened God’s punishment, wondering when the promise of punishment in the hereafter, as well as in this life, would be fulfilled. The Qur’ān paints here for them a scene of the suffering in the hereafter, while also warning them against a similar punishment to that which befell earlier communities which rejected the faith.
