Ibn Abbas Commentary

(Say) unto them, O Muhammad: (Lo! the death from which ye shrink) the death which you dislike (will surely meet you) will inevitably befall you, (and afterward ye will be returned) in the Hereafter (unto the Knower of the invisible) i.e. that which is hidden from the slaves and will happen in the future (and the visible) that which the people know and has already happened, (and He will tell you what ye used to do) and say whether it is good or evil.
