Ibn Abbas Commentary

(And they are set before thy Lord) they were led before your Lord (in ranks) all together, and Allah says to them: (Now verily have ye come unto Us as We created you at the first) without wealth or children. (But you thought) you said in the life of the world (that We had set no tryst for you) that We had set no appointed term for the Resurrection.
