Surah Saba Tafseer

أَفْتَرَى عَلَى اللَّهِ كَذِبًا أَم بِهِ جِنَّةٌ

Has he invented a lie against Allah, or is there a madness in him!

Allah said, refuting their words:

بَلِ الَّذِينَ لَا يُوْمِنُونَ بِالاْخِرَةِ فِي الْعَذَابِ وَالضَّلَلِ الْبَعِيدِ

Nay, but those who disbelieve in the Hereafter are (themselves) in a torment, and in far error.

meaning, the matter is not as they claim or as they think; on the contrary, Muhammad is the one who is telling the truth, and is righteous and wise; he is the one who has brought the truth, and they are the foolish and ignorant liars.

فِي الْعَذَابِ

are (themselves) in a torment,

means, their disbelief, which will lead them to the torment of Allah.

..

وَالضَّلَالِ الْبَعِيدِ

and in far error.

i.e. far from the truth in this world.

Then Allah warns them of His power in the creation of heavens and earth, as He says
