فَإِنَّ لِلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا۟ ذَنُوبًا مِّثْلَ ذَنُوبِ أَصْحَـٰبِهِمْ فَلَا يَسْتَعْجِلُونِ ﴿59﴾
And verily, for those who do wrong, there is a portion of torment like to the evil portion of torment (which came for) their likes (of old); so let them not ask Me to hasten on!
فَإِنَّ fa-inna So indeed
لِلَّذِينَ lilladhīna for those who
ظَلَمُوا۟ ẓalamū do wrong
ذَنُوبًۭا dhanūban (is) a portion
مِّثْلَ mith'la like
ذَنُوبِ dhanūbi (the) portion
أَصْحَـٰبِهِمْ aṣḥābihim (of) their companions

Tafsir Ahsan al-Bayan is a well-known Quran commentary by Hafiz Salahuddin Yusuf, a renowned Salafi (Ahl al-Hadith) scholar from Pakistan. This tafsir explains the meanings of the Quran in accordance with the methodology of the Salaf (early righteous generations), relying on authentic sources and straightforward language. Due to its reliability and adherence to sound Islamic scholarship, the Saudi government publishes and distributes this tafsir among the Hujjaj (pilgrims) visiting the Haramain. The tafsir is originally written in Urdu, translated to English by tohed.com.

59. 1. The meaning of "ذنوب" is a filled bucket. Water is drawn from a well into a bucket and then distributed; in this sense, the bucket is used here in the meaning of "share." The meaning is that the oppressors will receive their share of punishment, just as those who previously committed disbelief and polytheism received their share of punishment.

59. 2. But when this share of punishment will reach them depends on Allah's will; therefore, do not be hasty in seeking the punishment.
