Transliteration:( 'A-izaa mitnaa wa kunnaa turaabanw wa 'izaaman 'a innaa lamab'oosoon )
"What! When we become dust and bone after death, shall we be certainly raised [19] again?"
This means: most certainly not—the question is not genuine, but asked in a tone of rejection and denial.
Asking such a question with this intention is an act of infidelity, because it challenges the truth of resurrection revealed by Allah.
