الٓرٰ ۟ تِلۡکَ اٰیٰتُ الۡکِتٰبِ وَ قُرۡاٰنٍ مُّبِیۡنٍ ﴿۱﴾
Alif, Lam, Ra. These are the verses of the Book and a clear Qur’an.
رُبَمَا یَوَدُّ الَّذِیۡنَ کَفَرُوۡا لَوۡ کَانُوۡا مُسۡلِمِیۡنَ ﴿۲﴾
Perhaps those who disbelieve will wish that they had been Muslims.
ذَرۡہُمۡ یَاۡکُلُوۡا وَ یَتَمَتَّعُوۡا وَ یُلۡہِہِمُ الۡاَمَلُ فَسَوۡفَ یَعۡلَمُوۡنَ ﴿۳﴾
Let them eat and enjoy themselves and be diverted by [false] hope, for they are going to know.
وَ مَاۤ اَہۡلَکۡنَا مِنۡ قَرۡیَۃٍ اِلَّا وَ لَہَا کِتَابٌ مَّعۡلُوۡمٌ ﴿۴﴾
And We did not destroy any city but that for it was a known decree.
مَا تَسۡبِقُ مِنۡ اُمَّۃٍ اَجَلَہَا وَ مَا یَسۡتَاۡخِرُوۡنَ ﴿۵﴾
No nation will precede its term, nor will they remain thereafter.

The Disbelievers will someday wish that They had been Muslims

Allah says:

الَرَ تِلْكَ ايَاتُ الْكِتَابِ وَقُرْانٍ مُّبِينٍ

Alif-Lam-Ra.

These are Ayat of the Book and a plain Qur’an.

We have already discussed the letters which appear at the beginning of some Surahs.

Allah said.
رُّبَمَا يَوَدُّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ

How much would those who disbelieved wish,

Here Allah tells us that they will regret having lived in disbelief, and will wish that they had been Muslims in this world.

رُّبَمَا يَوَدُّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ لَوْ كَانُواْ مُسْلِمِينَ

How much would those who disbelieved wish that they had been Muslims.

Sufyan Ath-Thawri reported from Salamah bin Kuhayl, who reported from Abi Az-Za`ra’, from Abdullah, who said:

“This is about the Jahannamiyyun (the sinners among the believers who will stay in Hell for some time), when they (the disbelievers) see them being brought out of Hell.”

Ibn Jarir reported that Ibn Abbas and Anas bin Malik explained that;

this Ayah refers to the Day when Allah will detain the sinful Muslims in Hell along with the idolators.

He said:

“The idolators will say to them, `What you used to worship on earth has not helped you.’

Then by virtue of His mercy, Allah will be angry for their sake, and He will remove them (from it). That is when
رُّبَمَا الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ لَوْ كَانُواْ مُسْلِمِينَ
(How much would those who disbelieved wish that they had been Muslims).”
ذَرْهُمْ يَأْكُلُواْ وَيَتَمَتَّعُواْ

Leave them to eat and enjoy,

this is a stern and definitive threat for them, like His saying,

قُلْ تَمَتَّعُواْ فَإِنَّ مَصِيرَكُمْ إِلَى النَّارِ

Say:”Enjoy your brief life! But certainly, your destination is the Fire!” (14:30)

كُلُواْ وَتَمَتَّعُواْ قَلِيلً إِنَّكُمْ مُّجْرِمُونَ

(O disbelievers!) Eat and enjoy yourselves (in this worldly life) for a little while. Verily, you are the guilty. (77:46)

Allah says:

وَيُلْهِهِمُ الَامَلُ

let them be preoccupied with false hope.

i.e., distracted from repentance and turning to Allah, for,

فَسَوْفَ يَعْلَمُونَ

They will soon come to know!

that is, their punishment.
Every Township has its allotted Time

Allah says:

وَمَا أَهْلَكْنَا مِن قَرْيَةٍ إِلاَّ وَلَهَا كِتَابٌ مَّعْلُومٌ

مَّا تَسْبِقُ مِنْ أُمَّةٍ أَجَلَهَا وَمَا يَسْتَأْخِرُونَ
And never did We destroy a township but there was a known decree for it. No nation can advance its term, nor delay it.

Allah is informing that He never destroys a township until He has established evidences for it and its allotted time has ended. When the time for a nation’s destruction has come, He never delays it, and He never moves its appointed time forward.

This was a message and a warning to the people of Makkah, telling them to give up their Shirk, their stubbornness and disbelief for which they deserved to be destroyed.
