﴾50﴿ Then they will turn to one another, questioning each other
﴾51﴿ A speaker among them will say, Indeed, I had a companion
﴾52﴿ Who used to say, Are you indeed among those who affirm (the Oneness of God and the Resurrection)
﴾53﴿ Is it when we have died and become dust and bones that we will indeed be recompensed
﴾54﴿ He will say, Will you look down and see (where he is now)

[from 50 to 60] This too is part of the glad tidings, because a reason for punishment for the enemy and being saved from the cause of punishment is a great blessing.
(Qarīn) – what is meant by it is the opponents, those who are of the same age, because qarīn originally refers to the people of one generation.
(Ni‘matu Rabbī) – what is meant here is salvation from polytheism and denial of the Resurrection, and steadfastness in faith.
(Li-mithli hādhā) – meaning that for worldly aims and desires, hardship is not necessary, but to attain the blessings of Paradise, effort is required.
[from 62 to 68] These verses contain warnings of the Hereafter.
(Ka-annahu ru'ūsu al-shayāṭīn) – what is meant by this are the rebellious snakes with terrifying appearances, or it refers to Iblis and his progeny. Even though humans have not seen them in their true form, they are commonly known to be hideous in appearance.
(Fa-māli'ūn) – this indicates that this food does not provide the benefit of satiety, but merely fills the stomach. And from a full stomach come many hardships and diseases.
(Thumma inna lahum ‘alayhā lashawban min ḥamīm) – meaning that the heat of the water and the bitterness of the tree will both be combined, or that this water will be mixed with pus and blood from the inhabitants of Hell.
(Thumma inna marji‘ahum) – since the level for eating and drinking in Hell is separate from the level of burning in the fire (Jaḥīm), it is stated that after eating and drinking, their return will be to Hellfire.
