Tafsir
Mention the day when God shall gather the messengers which is the Day of Resurrection and He will say to them as a rebuke for their peoples ‘What answer were you given?’ when you summoned them to proclaim God’s Oneness; they shall say ‘We have no knowledge of this; You only You are the Knower of things unseen’ those things which are hidden from God’s servants and that which they the messengers have forgotten all knowledge of on account of the great terror of the Day of Resurrection and their fright; but when they have calmed down they proceed to bear witness against their communities.

Ibn Abbas Commentary
(In the day when Allah gathereth together the messengers) this is on the Day of Judgement, (and saith) in some place, at the time of bedazzlement: (What was your response (from mankind)) how did people respond to you? (They say) due to the intensity of the situation, which is that place: (We have no knowledge. Lo! Thou, only Thou art the Knower of Things Hidden) i.e. that which is hidden from us of the response of people. But later, they answer and testify that they have delivered the message to their people.
