Al-Jalalayn Commentary

O company of jinn and humans if you are able to pass through to exit from the confines the regions of the heavens and the earth then pass through! — a command meant to challenge them to what they are incapable of doing. You will not pass through except with a sanction except with some power and you have no power for such a thing.
