* تفسير Tafsir al-Jalalayn

{ وَإِذَا قِيلَ إِنَّ وعْدَ ٱللَّهِ حَقٌّ وَٱلسَّاعَةُ لاَ رَيْبَ فِيهَا قُلْتُم مَّا نَدْرِي مَا ٱلسَّاعَةُ إِن نَّظُنُّ إِلاَّ ظَنّاً وَمَا نَحْنُ بِمُسْتَيْقِنِينَ }

And when it was said to you O disbelievers “God’s promise of resurrection is indeed true and there is no doubt about the Hour” read al-sā‘atu or al-sā‘ata you said “We do not know what the Hour is. We only make conjectures al-Mubarrad said that this actually means in nahnu illā nazunnu zannan and we are by no means certain” ’ that it will come to pass.
