Allah says, these idolaters are playing about in doubt, i.e., the certain truth has come to them, but they doubt it and do not believe in it. Then Allah says, warning and threatening them:

Read in Context

Chapter 44, Page 496, Juz 25

1. Ha. Mim. 2. By the Scripture that maketh plain 3. Lo! We revealed it on a blessed night - Lo! We are ever warning - 4. Whereon every wise command is made clear 5. As a command from Our presence - Lo! We are ever sending - 6. A mercy from thy Lord. Lo! He, even He is the Hearer, the Knower, 7. Lord of the heavens and the earth and all that is between them, if ye would be sure. 8. There is no Allah save Him. He quickeneth and giveth death; your Lord and Lord of your forefathers. 9. Nay, but they play in doubt. 10. But watch thou (O Muhammad) for the day when the sky will produce visible smoke 11. That will envelop the people. This will be a painful torment. 12. (Then they will say): Our Lord relieve us of the torment. Lo! we are believers. 13. How can there be remembrance for them, when a messenger making plain (the Truth) had already come unto them, 14. And they had turned away from him and said: One taught (by others), a madman? 15. Lo! We withdraw the torment a little. Lo! ye return (to disbelief). 16. On the day when We shall seize them with the greater seizure, (then) in truth We shall punish.
