Yes! Verily, there came to you My Ayât (proofs, evidence, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) and you denied them, and were proud and were among the disbelievers.

Tafsir al-Quran al-Karim — Hafiz Abdus Salam Bin Muhammad Bhutvi

Tafsir al-Quran al-Karim is a 4-volume Quran commentary by Hafiz Abdus Salam bin Muhammad Bhutvi, a renowned Salafi (Ahl al-Hadith) scholar and Sheikh ul-Hadith from Pakistan. Based on over 45 years of teaching and research, this tafsir follows the methodology of Tafsir bil-Ma'thur — interpreting the Quran through authentic Hadith, statements of the Companions, and the understanding of the early generations (Salaf). It is distinguished by its complete avoidance of Israeliyyat (Judeo-Christian narratives) and unverified reports. The tafsir is originally written in Urdu, translated to English by tohed.com.

(Ayah 59) {بَلٰى قَدْ جَآءَتْكَ اٰيٰتِيْ … :} The word {’’ بَلٰى ‘‘ } (Why not) is said in refutation of a person who is denying something that has been established. In the statement of the disbelievers {’’ لَوْ اَنَّ اللّٰهَ هَدٰىنِيْ لَكُنْتُ مِنَ الْمُتَّقِيْنَ ‘‘} (If Allah had guided me, I would surely have been among the righteous), it is implied that they are saying Allah did not guide them, and in {’’ لَوْ اَنَّ لِيْ كَرَّةً ‘‘} it is implied that He did not give them time. Allah said, why not, My verses did come to you (meaning I guided you through My verses and also gave you time), but you denied them and acted arrogantly and you were among the disbelievers, just as it is said about the people of Thamud: « وَ اَمَّا ثَمُوْدُ فَهَدَيْنٰهُمْ فَاسْتَحَبُّوا الْعَمٰى عَلَى الْهُدٰى» [ حٰمٓ السجدۃ : ۱۷ ] "And as for Thamud, We showed them the right path, but they preferred blindness over guidance."

59. 1. This, Allah the Almighty, in response to their desire, will say.

Tafsir Taiseer ul-Quran — Maulana Abdul Rahman Kilani

Tafsir Taiseer ul-Quran (Facilitation of the Quran) is a comprehensive Quran commentary by Maulana Abdul Rahman Kilani, a renowned Salafi (Ahl al-Hadith) scholar from Pakistan. Known for his eloquent and accessible writing style, Kilani authored this tafsir with a focus on clarity — making Quranic meanings understandable to the common reader. The tafsir provides detailed historical context for verses related to battles and expeditions, and firmly refutes modernist ideologies using strong scriptural evidence. It is widely regarded as an invaluable resource for understanding the Quran and countering deviant interpretations. The tafsir is originally written in Urdu, translated to English by tohed.com.

(Allah will say,) "Yes, indeed! My verses did come to you, but you denied them and were arrogant, and you were among the disbelievers [76]."

[76] That is, you are lying when you say that if you are given another chance, you will become righteous. When you were in the world, My verses did reach you. But your nature is such that it is full of arrogance and pride, because of which you kept denying My verses. And even now your disposition is the same as before. It will not change if you are sent back to the world. What you are saying today is only because you have seen the punishment. When you are saved from it, your true nature will return again.
