Surah Hijr ayat 14 Tafsir Quran 15:14

﴿وَلَوْ فَتَحْنَا عَلَيْهِم بَابًا مِّنَ السَّمَاءِ فَظَلُّوا فِيهِ يَعْرُجُونَ﴾
[ الحجر: 14]

15:14 And [even] if We opened to them a gate from the heaven and they continued therein to ascend,

And even if We were to open for them a gate from the heaven and they were to continue ascending through it the gate

And if We were to open to them a gate in heaven to provide a free passage so as to admit of their continued ascent into the realm

And even if We opened to them a gate to the heavens and they were to continue ascending through it ( all day long )( 14 )They would surely say ( in the evening ): "Our eyes have been ( as if ) dazzled ( we have not seen any angel or heaven ).
Nay, we are a people bewitched.
( 15 ) The Stubborn Disbelievers will never believe, no matter what Signs and Wonders They see Allah explains the extent of their disbelief and stubborn resistance to the truth by stating that even if a door to heaven were to be opened for them, and they were to be taken up through it, they would still not believe.
Rather, they would say: إِنَّمَا سُكِّرَتْ أَبْصَارُنَا ( Our eyes have been (as if ) dazzled.) Mujahid, Ibn Kathir and Ad-Dahhak said, "[ this means ] our vision has been blocked." Qatadah narrated that Ibn 'Abbas said, "[ this means ] our eyesight has been taken away." Al-'Awfi reported that Ibn 'Abbas said, "[ this means ] we were confused and put under a spell." سُكِّرَتْ أَبْصَارُنَا ( Our eyes have been (as if ) dazzled.) Ibn Zayd said: "The one who is dazzled [ lit.
intoxicated ] is the one who cannot reason."

( And even if We opened unto them ) unto the people of Mecca ( a Gate of Heaven ) from which to enter ( and they kept mounting through it ) and they kept ascending and descending through it, i.e. like the angels.

And even if We opened to them a gate from the heaven and they were to continue ascending thereto,
