* تفسير Tafsir al-Jalalayn

{ وَلَقَدْ كُنْتُمْ تَمَنَّوْنَ ٱلْمَوْتَ مِن قَبْلِ أَن تَلْقَوْهُ فَقَدْ رَأَيْتُمُوهُ وَأَنْتُمْ تَنظُرُونَ }

You were longing for tamannawna one of the two letters tā’ has been omitted from the original tatamannawna death before you met it when you said ‘Would that we had a day like the Day of Badr in order to attain what its martyrs attained.’ Now you have seen it that is the cause of it war looking on that is with your eyes open and contemplating the conditions so why did you retreat?
