And if you are astonished, [O Muhammad] - then astonishing is their saying, "When we are dust, will we indeed be [brought] into a new creation?" Those are the ones who have disbelieved in their Lord, and those will have shackles upon their necks, and those are the companions of the Fire; they will abide therein eternally.

Read in the muṣḥaf

قَوْلُهُ عَزَّ وجَلَّ: ‏‏‏ ‏‏‏‏ ‏‏‏‏ ‏‏‏‏‏ الآيَةِ.

مَعْناهُ وإنْ تَعْجَبْ يا مُحَمَّدُ مِن تَكْذِيبِهِمْ لَكَ فَأعْجَبُ مِنهُ تَكْذِيبُهم بِالبَعْثِ.

واللَّهُ تَعالى لا يَتَعَجَّبُ ولا يَجُوزُ

(p-٩٥)عَلَيْهِ التَّعَجُّبُ؛ لِأنَّهُ تَغَيُّرُ النَّفْسِ بِما تَخْفى أسْبابُهُ، وإنَّما ذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ لِيَتَعَجَّبَ مِنهُ نَبِيُّهُ والمُؤْمِنُونَ.
