Tafseer
'Abdullāh Ibn 'Abbās / Muḥammad al-Fīrūzabādī
تفسير : they emerge and become manifest to allah so (that allah may repay each soul) whether it is a believing or a sinful soul (what it hath earned) of good or evil. (lo! allah is swift at reckoning) allah is severe in his chastisement.
Jalāl al-Dīn al-Maḥallī
تفسير : that god may requite (li-yajziya is semantically connected to [the verb] barazū, ‘they shall come forth’) every soul for what it has earned, of good and evil. truly god is swift at reckoning — he shall reckon with all creatures in about half a day of the days of this world, as one hadīth states to that effect.
