* تفسير Tanwîr al-Miqbâs min Tafsîr Ibn ‘Abbâs

{ وَقَالُواْ رَبَّنَا عَجِّل لَّنَا قِطَّنَا قَبْلَ يَوْمِ ٱلْحِسَابِ }

(They say) i.e. the disbelievers of Mecca said upon hearing Allah's saying (Then, as for him who is given his record in his right hand, he will say: Take, read my book! … But as for him who is given his record in his left hand) [al-Haqqah: 69:19-25], they said: (Our Lord!) O our Lord! (Hasten on for us our fate) our records, they mean the registers of their deeds (before the Day of Reckoning) so that we know what is in them.
