وَإِذَآ أُلْقُوا۟ مِنْهَا مَكَانًا ضَيِّقًا مُّقَرَّنِينَ دَعَوْا۟ هُنَالِكَ ثُبُورًا
14:50.
Important Words:
ثبورا (destruction) is infinitive-noun from ثبر which means, he perished; he suffered loss; he erred; he became lost. ثبرہmeans, he drove him away, he repelled him; he disappointed or frustrated his hope or desire; he cursed him; he confined, restrained or withheld him; God destroyed him with a destruction from which he could not rise. ثبور means, perdition; loss, going astray or becoming lost; woe; complete destruction, etc. (Lane & Aqrab).
Commentary:
In the preceding verse the organs of sight and hearing were mentioned as feeling the pain of Divine punishment. The present verse, besides referring to the organs of touch, expresses the extreme bitterness of the disbelievers’ distress. When a man is in great distress he wishes that death should make a speedy end of him.
