(Deemed ye then) O people of Mecca (that We had created you for naught) in vain, without commands and prohibitions, reward and punishment, (and that ye would not be returned unto Us) after you die?
Al-Jalalayn Commentary
Did you suppose that We created you aimlessly and not for an underlying reason and that you would not be returned to Us?’ read active tarji‘ūna ‘you would not return’ or passive turja‘ūna ‘you would not be returned’ Nay! But it was so that We might enthral you with commands and prohibitions where after you would be returned to Us for Us to requite you accordingly And I did not create the jinn and mankind except that they may worship Me Q. 5156.
