﴿وَأَقْسَمُوا بِاللَّهِ جَهْدَ أَيْمَانِهِمْ ۙ لَا يَبْعَثُ اللَّهُ مَن يَمُوتُ ۚ بَلَىٰ وَعْدًا عَلَيْهِ حَقًّا وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ﴾
[ النحل: 38]
16:38 And they swear by Allah their strongest oaths [that] Allah will not resurrect one who dies. But yes - [it is] a true promise [binding] upon Him, but most of the people do not know.
Tafsir Ibn Katheer in EnglishThese deniers swore their most serious oaths: Allah will not resurrect anyone who dies, without their having any proof of that.
Yes indeed, Allah will resurrect everyone who dies, being His binding promise, because the one who brought them to life from non-existence without any precedent is able to bring them back to life after having caused them to die.
But most people do not know that Allah will resurrect the dead and they therefore deny the resurrection.
Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali
And they swear by Allah their strongest oaths, that Allah will not raise up him who dies. Yes, (He will raise them up), a promise (binding) upon Him in truth, but most of mankind know not.

And they -the Pagans- make a solemn declaration with an appeal to Allah -if there be any- or to one of their false gods, -and they are many- that Allah shall never resurrect anyone once he is dead. But indeed He shall. This is a divine promise and the promise of Allah is truth personified but most people do not realize this fact
Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi
(16:38) They solemnly swear by God with their most sacred oaths that "Allah will never raise him who once is dead".Why will He not raise? It is a promise He has made binding on Himself, but most people do not know it.

یہ لوگ اللہ کے نام سے کڑی کڑی قسمیں کھا کر کہتے ہیں کہ "اللہ کسی مرنے والے کو پھر سے زندہ کر کے نہ اٹھائے گا" اٹھائے گا کیوں نہیں، یہ تو ایک وعدہ ہے جسے پورا کرنا اس نے اپنے اوپر واجب کر لیا ہے، مگر اکثر لوگ جانتے نہیں ہیں
