تفسير : (when we are dead and have become dust and) withered (bones, shall we then, forsooth, be raised (again)) shall we then be brought back to life after we die? say to them, o muhammad: indeed you shall.
Jalāl al-Dīn al-Maḥallī
تفسير : when we are dead and have become dust and bones, shall we indeed be resurrected? (in both places [sc. a-idhā and a-innā] either pronounce both hamzas, or read without pronouncing the second one and inserting an alif between them, in both cases).
