Tafsir of 26:209

The Deniers will never believe until They see the Torment Allah says: `thus We caused denial, disbelief, rejection and stubbornness to enter the hearts of the sinners.' لاَ يُؤْمِنُونَ بِهِ (They will not believe in it), i.e., the truth, حَتَّى يَرَوُاْ الْعَذَابَ الاٌّلِيمَ (until they see the painful torment.) means, when their excuses will be of no avail, and the curse will be upon them, and theirs will be an evil abode. فَيَأْتِيَهُم بَغْتَةً (It shall come to them of a sudden,) means, the punishment of Allah will come upon them suddenly, وَهُمْ لاَ يَشْعُرُونَفَيَقُولُواْ هَلْ نَحْنُ مُنظَرُونَ (while they perceive it not. Then they will say: "Can we be respited") means, when they see the punishment, then they will wish they had a little more time so that they can obey Allah -- or so they claim. This is like the Ayah: وَأَنذِرِ النَّاسَ يَوْمَ يَأْتِيهِمُ الْعَذَابُ (And warn mankind of the Day when the torment will come unto them) until: مَا لَكُمْ مِّن زَوَالٍ (that you would not leave) (14: 44). When every sinner and evildoer sees his punishment, he will feel intense regret.…
