* تفسير Tanwîr al-Miqbâs min Tafsîr Ibn ‘Abbâs

{ خَٰشِعَةً أَبْصَٰرُهُمْ تَرْهَقُهُمْ ذِلَّةٌ وَقَدْ كَانُواْ يُدْعَوْنَ إِلَى ٱلسُّجُودِ وَهُمْ سَٰلِمُونَ }

(With eyes downcast) not able to see any good, (abasement stupefying them) humiliation and darkness appear on their faces. (And they had been summoned) in the life of the world (to prostrate themselves) to submit themselves through the profession of Allah's divine Oneness but did not submit to Allah's divine Oneness (while they were yet unhurt) while they were strong and sound of bodies.
