ٱلْبَقَرَة : ١٦٧

  • وَقَالَ And said
  • ٱلَّذِينَ those who
  • ٱتَّبَعُواْ followed
  • لَوۡ (Only) if
  • أَنَّ [that]
  • لَنَا for us
  • كَرَّةٗ a return
  • فَنَتَبَرَّأَ then we will disown
  • مِنۡهُمۡ [from] them
  • كَمَا as
  • تَبَرَّءُواْ they disown
  • مِنَّاۗ [from] us
  • كَذَٰلِكَ Thus
  • يُرِيهِمُ will show them
  • ٱللَّهُ Allah
  • أَعۡمَٰلَهُمۡ their deeds
  • حَسَرَٰتٍ (as) regrets
  • عَلَيۡهِمۡۖ for them
  • وَمَا And not
  • هُم they
  • بِخَٰرِجِينَ will come out
  • مِنَ from
  • ٱلنَّارِ the Fire
Those who followed will say, "If only we had another turn [at worldly life] so we could disassociate ourselves from them as they have disassociated themselves from us." Thus will Allāh show them their deeds as regrets upon them. And they are never to emerge from the Fire.
And those who followed say, 'O, if only we might return again, to the world, and disown them, the ones who had been followed, as they have disowned us!', on this day (the particle law, 'if only', is an optative, and its response is natabarra'a, 'we disown'). So, just as He showed them the severity of His chastisement and their disowning of one another, so too, God shall show them their, evil, works, as, anguish (hasaraat is a circumstantial qualifier), regrets, for them! Never shall they exit from the Hellfire, once they have entered it.
