Ibn Kathir (Abridged)

قَالُواْ سُبْحَـنَ رَبّنَآ إِنَّا كُنَّا ظَـلِمِينَ- فَأَقْبَلَ بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ يَتَلَـوَمُونَ- قَالُواْ يوَيْلَنَآ إِنَّا كُنَّا طَـغِينَ- عَسَى رَبُّنَآ أَن يُبْدِلَنَا خَيْراً مّنْهَآ إِنَّآ إِلَى رَبّنَا رغِبُونَ- كَذَلِكَ الْعَذَابُ وَلَعَذَابُ الاْخِرَةِ أَكْبَرُ لَوْ كَانُواْ يَعْلَمُ

Chapter 68, Page 565, Juz 29

17. We have tested them as We had tested the Owners of the Garden, when they had sworn an oath that they would pluck its fruits on the next morning, 18. and did not make any exception (by saying inshā’allāh ). 19. Then, there whirled around it a whirl (of calamity) from your Lord, while they were asleep. 20. Thus, on the next morning, it was like a harvested field. 21. So, they called out each other as the morning broke, 22. saying, “Set out early, if you are going to pluck (the fruits).” 23. So they set out while they were whispering to each other, 24. saying, “Let no poor man enter into it upon you today.” 25. And in early hours they rushed quickly, while they were (assuming themselves) powerful (to pluck the fruits and prevent the poor.) 26. But when they saw it (the place of the ruined garden), they said, “We have missed the way.” 27. (Then, once they realized that the garden is the same, but it has been destroyed, they said,) “No, but we are deprived (of the fruits).” 28. Said he who was the best among them, “Did I not say to you, ‘Why do you not pronounce tasbīH (Allah’s purity)?” 29. They said, “We pronounce the purity of our Lord. No doubt, we were wrongdoers.” 30. Then, (at the beginning,) they started reproaching one another; 31. (and at last,) they said, “Woe to us! In fact, we (all) were outrageous. 32. We hope that our Lord will give us in exchange something better than this. Truly we turn to Allah.” 33. In this way the punishment comes. And, of course, the punishment of the Hereafter is even greater, if they but realize!
