وَعُرِضُوا۟ عَلَىٰ رَبِّكَ صَفًّا لَّقَدْ جِئْتُمُونَا كَمَا خَلَقْنَٰكُمْ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍۭ ۚ بَلْ زَعَمْتُمْ أَلَّن نَّجْعَلَ لَكُم مَّوْعِدًا

Commentary:
The words, And they will be presented to thy Lord standing in rows, mean that the decree of God about their final destruction will certainly come into force.
The clause, Now have you come to Us as We created you at first, signifies that they will become divested of all power and authority and will be reduced to a state of subjection and disgrace as before.
The expression, But you thought that We would fix no time for the fulfilment of Our promise, means that they had laboured under the misconception that We had lost all control over them and had fixed no time of reckoning for their iniquities and transgressions. The verse constitutes an amplification of v. 36 above where an analogous expression viz. I do not think that this will ever perish, occurs.

وَٱلصَّٰٓفَّٰتِ صَفًّا
و (waw) 这一虚词的意思是: 也; 然后; 当……时; 在……期间; 同时, 一起; 同; 但是; 然而。它也和 رُبَّ (rubba) 同义, 即常常; 有时; 也许。它也是发誓用的一个虚词, 意思是, “召请” 或 “我宣誓” 或 “我引…为证”。«古兰经» 中, 安拉对某些人或东西郑重保证过, 或引他 (它) 们作为见证。一般来说, 当一个人对安拉发誓时, 他的目的是弥补证据不足这一缺陷, 或对他讲的话加重份量或说服力。他在没有其他人证明自己所说的话的时候, 他就这样做, 他召请安拉来证明自己所说的是事实。但这不是 «古兰经» 中的誓言。«古兰经» 采取这种形式时, 经中提出的真理用不到什么断言作证, 而是在誓言本身中就意示确实的论据。有时这些誓言指的是明显的自然法则, 而且用含蓄的方法要人们注意, 从明显的事物中可以推论出来的事物, 即精神法则。«古兰经» 中誓言的另一个目的是做出一个预言并在实现这个预言时证实它是真理。这就是这节经文中这一誓言的情况。
یعنی صحابہ کرامؓ۔ ان کے حالات سے کفار مکہ کا مقابلہ کرو تو اسلام کی سچائی خوب ظاہر ہو جائے گی۔
The particle waw means, also; then; while; during; at the same time, together; with; but; however. It is also synonymous with rubba, i.e. frequently; sometimes, perhaps. It is also a particle of swearing meaning, 'by' or 'I swear,' or 'I cite as witness' (Aqrab & Lane). Waw has been used in the present and the next two verses in the sense of 'by,' or 'I swear,' or 'I cite as witness.' In the Qur’an God has sworn by certain beings or things or has cited them as witnesses. Ordinarily, when a person takes an oath and swears by Allah his object is to supply the deficiency of insufficient testimony or to add weight or conviction to his statement. By so doing he calls God to witness that he speaks the truth when there is no other person to bear witness to his statement. But such is not the case with the Quranic oaths. When the Qur’an adopts such a form the truth of the statement it makes is not sought to be proved by a mere assertion but by a solid argument implied in the oath itself

Sometimes, these oaths refer to the obvious laws of nature and by implication draw attention to what may be inferred from what is obvious. Another object of a Quranic oath is to make a prophecy the fulfilment of which establishes its truth. For a collective note on this and the next verse see v. 4 below.

13:36.
Believers are promised, in this and the next life, rivers of pure water, rivers of milk of which the taste does not change, rivers of wine which gives delight and rivers of clarified honey. The word, Anhar, which has been used four times in the verse, besides other senses, signifies light and amplitude; and ‘Asal, among other things, means a good or righteous deed which wins for the doer the love and esteem of men. In view of this signification of these two words the verse may mean that the four things mentioned will be given to the righteous in plenty. Water is the source of all life (21:31); milk gives health and vigour to the body; wine gives pleasant sensations and forgetfulness of worries, and honey cures many a disease. Taken in the physical sense, the verse would signify that in the present life the believers will have in plenty all those things which make life pleasant, delightful and useful; and taken symbolically and in a spiritual sense, it would mean that believers will have a f
