Transliteration:( Thumma kalla sawfa ta'lamoon )
5. On reaching your graves, or on the Day of Judgement after you are resurrected and have seen the Divine punishment. But the acknowledgement and acceptance of that time will not benefit you in any way. Hazrat Alli Murtaza says that the revelation of this verse gave us the certainty about the punishment of the grave, because here in the first verse mention is being made of the punishment of the grave, while in the second verse mention is being made about the punishment of the Hereafter (Tafseer Roohul Bayaan). It should be remembered that in comparison to Barzakh (stay in the grave), the world is a dream, while Barzakh is a dream in comparison with the Hereafter. To the believers in the world have convincing knowledge of the Hereafter, while in the grave he will have positive knowledge of it, while on Judgement Day he will have absolute knowledge of it. Thus, here the address could be to the negligent believer as well.
