78:40
انا انذرناكم عذابا قريبا يوم ينظر المرء ما قدمت يداه ويقول الكافر يا ليتني كنت ترابا ٤٠
إِنَّآ أَنذَرْنَـٰكُمْ عَذَابًۭا قَرِيبًۭا يَوْمَ يَنظُرُ ٱلْمَرْءُ مَا قَدَّمَتْ يَدَاهُ وَيَقُولُ ٱلْكَافِرُ يَـٰلَيْتَنِى كُنتُ تُرَٰبًۢا ٤٠
إِنَّآ
أَنذَرۡنَٰكُمۡ
عَذَابٗا
قَرِيبٗا
يَوۡمَ
يَنظُرُ
ٱلۡمَرۡءُ
مَا
قَدَّمَتۡ
يَدَاهُ
وَيَقُولُ
ٱلۡكَافِرُ
يَٰلَيۡتَنِي
كُنتُ
تُرَٰبَۢا

Indeed, We have warned you of an imminent punishment—the Day every person will see ˹the consequences of˺ what their hands have done, and the disbelievers will cry, “I wish I were dust.”1

You are reading a tafsir for the group of verses 78:36 to 79:14

Every year we experience periods of calm weather followed by gales bringing clouds and rainstorms. Soon it is clearly visible that where the land was desolate, a new world has sprung up. This event of nature indicates the possibility of the Hereafter. This shows in symbolic fashion that the emergence of the Hereafter from the present world is just as possible as the emergence of lush green foliage from dry barren land.
