Tafseer 'Ibn Kathir' (EN)
The Misguidance of the Idolators
Allah tells us how the idolators persisted in their misguidance and in not paying attention to the sins that they had committed in the past or what was to happen to them in the future, on the Day of Resurrection.
وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمُ اتَّقُوا مَا بَيْنَ أَيْدِيكُمْ وَمَا خَلْفَكُمْ
And when it is said to them:"Fear of that which is before you, and that which is behind you..."
Mujahid said,
"This refers to sins."
Others said, it is the opposite.
لَعَلَّكُمْ تُرْحَمُونَ
in order that you may receive mercy.
means, `so that, if you fear such things Allah will have mercy on you and will save you from His punishment.'
The wording implies that they would not respond. Rather that they would turn away and ignore that, as Allah says
