Waylun yawma-ithin lilmukaththibeen (surah Mursalat: 19)

Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi

(77:19) Woe on that Day to those that give the lie to the Truth! *10

Wailunw yawma `izil lil mukazzibeen

*10) This sentence in the present context means: "The fate they have met or will meet in the world, is not their real punishment; their real doom will descend on them on the Day of Decision. The punishment here is only in the nature of a person's being arrested when he commits one crime after the other fearlessly and is not inclined to mend and change his ways. The court where his test is to be decided and he is to be punished for.all his misdeeds, will not be established in this world but in the Hereafter, and that indeed will be the actual Day of his ruin and disaster." (For further explanation, see E.N.'s 5, 6 of Al-A`raf, E.N.,105 of H ud).
