﴿قَالُوا بَلْ جِئْنَاكَ بِمَا كَانُوا فِيهِ يَمْتَرُونَ﴾
[ الحجر: 63]

15:63 They said, "But we have come to you with that about which they were disputing,

They said ‘Rather we have come to you because of that which they your people used to doubt namely the chastisement.

But, said the Messengers, we have brought you the answer to the problem of those who doubted your mission and denied your divine message

Then when the messengers ( the angels ) came to the family of Lu ( 61 )He ( Lut ) said: "Verily, you are people unknown to me.
( 62 )They said: "Nay, we have come to you with that ( torment ) which they have been doubting.
( 63 )"And we have brought you the truth and certainly we tell the truth.
( 64 ) The Angels coming to Lut Allah tells us about when the angels came to Lut in the form of young men with handsome faces.
When they entered his home, he said: إِنَّكُمْ قَوْمٌ مُّنكَرُونَ - قَالُوا بَلْ جِئْنَاكَ بِمَا كَانُوا فِيهِ يَمْتَرُونَ ( "Verily, you are people unknown to me." They said: "Nay, we have come to you with that (torment ) which they have been doubting.") meaning that they were bringing the punishment and destruction that the people doubted they would ever suffer from. وَأَتَيْنَاكَ بِالْحَقِّ ( And we have brought you the truth ) is like the Ayah, مَا نُنَزِّلُ الْمَلَائِكَةَ إِلَّا بِالْحَقِّ ( We do not send the angels down except with the truth )[ 15:8 ] and وَإِنَّا لَصَادِقُونَ ( and certainly, we tell the truth. ) They said this in affirmation of the news that they brought him, that he would be saved and his people would be destroyed.
