وَأَنذِرِ ٱلنَّاسَ يَوْمَ يَأْتِيهِمُ ٱلْعَذَابُ فَيَقُولُ ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا۟ رَبَّنَآ أَخِّرْنَآ إِلَىٰٓ أَجَلٍۢ قَرِيبٍۢ نُّجِبْ دَعْوَتَكَ وَنَتَّبِعِ ٱلرُّسُلَ ۗ أَوَلَمْ تَكُونُوٓا۟ أَقْسَمْتُم مِّن قَبْلُ مَا لَكُم مِّن زَوَالٍۢ
Dan berikanlah peringatan kepada manusia terhadap hari (yang pada waktu itu) datang azab kepada mereka, maka berkatalah orang-orang yang zalim: "Ya Tuhan kami, beri tangguhlah kami (kembalikanlah kami ke dunia) walaupun dalam waktu yang sedikit, niscaya kami akan mematuhi seruan Engkau dan akan mengikuti rasul-rasul". (Kepada mereka dikatakan): "Bukankah kamu telah bersumpah dahulu (di dunia) bahwa sekali-kali kamu tidak akan binasa?
Tafsir Ibn Kathir
There will be no Respite after the Coming of the Torment
Allah mentions what those who committed injustice against themselves will say when they witness the torment,
(Our Lord! Respite us for a little while, we will answer Your call and follow the Messengers!) Allah said in other Ayat,
(Until, when death comes to one of them, he says: "My Lord! Send me back.")23:99 and,
(O you who believe! Let not your properties divert you.) 63:9-10 Allah described the condition of the wrongdoers on the Day of Gathering, when He said,
(And if you only could see when the criminals shall hang their heads.) 32:12,
(If you could but see when they will be held over the Fire! They will say: "Would that we were but sent back (to the world)! Then we would not deny the Ayat of Our Lord. .."!) 6:27 and,
(Therein they will cry.) 35:27 Allah refuted their statement here,
(Had you not sworn aforetime that you would not leave.) Allah says, `Had you not vowed before, that your previous state will not change, that there will be no Resurrection or Reckoning Therefore, taste this torment because of what you vowed before.' Mujahid commented that,
(that you would not leave.) refers to leaving this worldly life to the Hereafter. Allah also said,
(And they swear by Allah with their strongest oaths, that Allah will not raise up him who dies.) 16:38 Allah said next,
(And you dwelt in the dwellings of men who wronged themselves, and it was clear to you how We had dealt with them. And We put forth (many) parables for you.) Allah says, `you have witnessed or heard of the news of what happened to the earlier disbelieving nations, but you did not draw a lesson from their end, nor did what We punished them with provide an example for you,'
(Perfect wisdom but the warners benefit then not.)54:5 Shu`bah narrated that Abu Ishaq said that `Abdur-Rahman bin Dabil said that `Ali bin Abi Talib commented on Allah's statement,
(though their plot was not such as to remove the mountains from their places.) "He who disputed with Ibrahim about his Lord, took two eaglets and raised them until they became adult eagels. Then he tied each eagel's leg to a wooden box with ropes and left them go hungry. He and another man sat inside the wooden box and raised a staff with a piece of meat on its tip. So, the two eagles started flying. The king asked his companion to tell him what he was seeing, and he described the scenes to him, until he said that he saw the earth as a fly. So, the king brought the staff closer to the eagels and they started landing slowly. This is why Allah said, (وَإِنْ كَادَ مَكْرُهُمْ لِتَزُولَ مِنْهُ الْجِبَالُ) `though their plot was hardly one to remove the mountains from their places."' Mujahid also mentioned that this story was about Nebuchadnezzar, and that when the king's sight was far away from earth and its people, he was called, `O tyrant one! Where are you headed to' He became afraid and brought the staff closer to the eagels, which flew faster with such haste that the mountains almost shook from the noise they made. The mountains were almost moved from their places, so Allah said,
(though their plot was not such as to remove the mountains from their places.)" Ibn Jurayj narrated that Mujahid recited this Ayah in a way that means, "though their plot was such as to remove the mountains from their places." However, Al-`Awfi reported that Ibn `Abbas said that,
(though their plot was not such as to remove the mountains from their places.) indicates that their plot was not such as to remove the mountains from their places. Similar was said by Al-Hasan Al-Basri. Ibn Jarir reasoned that, "Associating others with Allah and disbelieving in Him, which they brought upon themselves, did not bother the mountains nor other creatures. Rather, the harm of their actions came to haunt them." I (Ibn Kathir) said, this meaning is similar to Allah's statement,
(And walk not on the earth with conceit and arrogance. Verily, you can neither rend nor penetrate the earth, nor can you attain a stature like the mountains in height.)17:37 There is another way of explaining this Ayah; `Ali bin Abi Talhah reported that Ibn `Abbas said that,
(though their plot was not such as to remove the mountains from their places.) refers to their Shirk, for Allah said in another Ayah,
(Whereby the heavens are almost torn.) 19:90 Ad-Dahhak and Qatadah said similarly.

Allah menjadikan ikan bagi Musa sebagai tanda dan dikatakan kepadanya; "jika kamu kehilangan ikan tersebut kembalilah, nanti kamu akan berjumpa dengannya". Maka Musa 'Alaihis Salam mengikuti jejak ikan di lautan. Berkatalah murid Musa 'Alaihis salam: "Tahukah kamu tatkala kita mencari tempat berlindung di batu tadi? Sesungguhnya aku lupa (menceritakan tentang) ikan itu dan tidaklah yang melupakan aku untuk menceritakannya kecuali setan". Maka Musa 'Alaihis Salam berkata:."Itulah (tempat) yang kita cari".
