Al-Jalalayn Commentary

And they namely the deniers of resurrection say ‘When we are lost beneath the earth when we have gone thereunder having become dust mixed with its dust shall we be indeed created anew?’ an interrogative of denial; read a-innā by pronouncing both hamzas or by not pronouncing the second one and inserting an alif between them either way in both places. God exalted be He says Nay but they disbelieve in the encounter with their Lord through resurrection.
