قُلۡ مَن كَانَ فِي ٱلضَّلَٰلَةِ فَلۡيَمۡدُدۡ لَهُ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنُ مَدًّاۚ حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا رَأَوۡاْ مَا يُوعَدُونَ إِمَّا ٱلۡعَذَابَ وَإِمَّا ٱلسَّاعَةَ فَسَيَعۡلَمُونَ مَنۡ هُوَ شَرّٞ مَّكَانٗا وَأَضۡعَفُ جُندٗا ٧٥
Say, "Whoever is in error - let the Most Merciful extend for him an extension [in wealth and time] until, when they see that which they were promised - either punishment [in this world] or the Hour [of resurrection] - they will come to know who is worst in position and weaker in soldiers."

Commentary on 19:75
٧٥ – ﴿قُلۡ﴾ يا محمد لهؤلاء المشركين بربهم ، المدعين أنهم على حق ، وأنكم على باطل ﴿مَن كَانَ فِي ٱلضَّلَٰلَةِ﴾ أي: منا أو منكم ، بأن رضيها لنفسه، وسعى فيها . وهو شرط ، جوابه: ﴿فَلۡيَمۡدُدۡ﴾ أي : فليمهل وليمل ﴿لَهُ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنُ مَدًّاۚ﴾ في العمر والسعة استدراجا ، ليزداد طغيانا فيها وضلالا . وهو أمر بمعنى : الخبر ، أي : يمد له الرحمن مدا في الدنيا ، بأن يستدرجه ويمهله ويملي له عدلا منه وحكمة ، بإطالة عمره وإكثار ماله ، ليزداد في طغيانه وضلاله .﴿حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا رَأَوۡاْ﴾ أي : القائلون : (أي الفريقين خيرٌ مقاما وأحسن نديا)مريم(٧٣) ﴿مَا يُوعَدُونَ﴾ به ﴿إِمَّا ٱلۡعَذَابَ﴾ في الدنيا بالقتل والأسر ﴿وَإِمَّا ٱلسَّاعَةَ﴾ المشتملة على عذاب الآخرة . ﴿فَسَيَعۡلَمُونَ﴾ حينئذ ﴿مَنۡ هُوَ شَرّٞ مَّكَانٗا﴾ أي: مسكنا و منزلة ﴿وَأَضۡعَفُ جُندٗا﴾ أي : وأقلّ أعوانا وأنصارا أهُم أم المؤمنون؟ وهذا في مقابلة ما احتجوا به في قولهم : (أي الفريقين خيرٌ مقاما وأحسن نديا) .والمراد : إن هؤلاء الذين افتخروا على المؤمنين بأنهم خير مقاما و أحسن نديا، سيعلمون يوم القيامة أنهم شر مكانا وأضعف جندا من المؤمنين .

رَّبُّ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَمَا بَيۡنَهُمَا فَٱعۡبُدۡهُ وَٱصۡطَبِرۡ لِعِبَٰدَتِهِۦۚ هَلۡ تَعۡلَمُ لَهُۥ سَمِيّٗا ٦٥
Lord of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them - so worship Him and have patience for His worship. Do you know of any similarity to Him?"
19:66
وَيَقُولُ ٱلۡإِنسَٰنُ أَءِذَا مَا مِتُّ لَسَوۡفَ أُخۡرَجُ حَيًّا ٦٦
And man [i.e., the disbeliever] says, "When I have died, am I going to be brought forth alive?"
19:67
أَوَلَا يَذۡكُرُ ٱلۡإِنسَٰنُ أَنَّا خَلَقۡنَٰهُ مِن قَبۡلُ وَلَمۡ يَكُ شَيۡـٔٗا ٦٧
Does man not remember that We created him before, while he was nothing?
19:68
فَوَرَبِّكَ لَنَحۡشُرَنَّهُمۡ وَٱلشَّيَٰطِينَ ثُمَّ لَنُحۡضِرَنَّهُمۡ حَوۡلَ جَهَنَّمَ جِثِيّٗا ٦٨
So by your Lord, We will surely gather them and the devils; then We will bring them to be present around Hell upon their knees.1

ثُمَّ لَنَحۡنُ أَعۡلَمُ بِٱلَّذِينَ هُمۡ أَوۡلَىٰ بِهَا صِلِيّٗا ٧٠
Then, surely it is We who are most knowing of those most worthy of burning therein.

قُلۡ مَن كَانَ فِي ٱلضَّلَٰلَةِ فَلۡيَمۡدُدۡ لَهُ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنُ مَدًّاۚ حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا رَأَوۡاْ مَا يُوعَدُونَ إِمَّا ٱلۡعَذَابَ وَإِمَّا ٱلسَّاعَةَ فَسَيَعۡلَمُونَ مَنۡ هُوَ شَرّٞ مَّكَانٗا وَأَضۡعَفُ جُندٗا ٧٥

وَيَزِيدُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱهۡتَدَوۡاْ هُدٗىۗ وَٱلۡبَٰقِيَٰتُ ٱلصَّٰلِحَٰتُ خَيۡرٌ عِندَ رَبِّكَ ثَوَابٗا وَخَيۡرٞ مَّرَدًّا ٧٦
And Allāh increases those who were guided, in guidance, and the enduring good deeds are better to your Lord1 for reward and better for recourse.
