Ibn Abbas Commentary
(Wait they) the people of Mecca (for nothing else than that Allah should come unto them) on the Day of Judgement, but this coming is without any modality (bila-kayfa) (in the shadows of the clouds with the angels? Then the case would be already judged) the people of Paradise would already be in Paradise and the people of hell in hell. (All cases go back to Allah) the consequences of all things go back to Allah in the Hereafter.
