Ayar mai zuwa tana magana ne game da halin taurin kai na ƙin dukkan shiriyar Allah.
The next verse speaks about a determined attitude to reject all divine guidance:
“Waɗanda suka kafirta suna cewa: Ba za mu taɓa yin imani da wannan Alƙur'ani ba, haka kuma ba za mu yi imani da littattafan da suka riga shi ba.” (Aya ta 31) Suna bayyana a fili cewa ba za su taɓa yin imani ba, ba da Alƙur'ani ba, ba kuma da duk wani littafin Allah da ya gabace shi, wanda a zahiri ma yana tabbatar da gaskiyarsa. Ba su shirya yin imani da kowane ɗaya daga cikin waɗannan ba a kowane lokaci a nan gaba. Sun ƙudura su ƙaryata, suna ƙin yin tunani ko da a kan abu ɗaya da zai nuna hanyar imani da gangan. Duk wannan, saboda haka, matsaya ce da aka yi tunani sosai a kanta. Saboda haka, sūrah ɗin tana sanya a gaban idanunsu abin da zai same su a Ranar Shari'a sakamakon ƙin karɓar gaskiya da suke yi da taurin kai.
“The unbelievers say: We will never believe in this Qur’ān, nor in any earlier revelations.” (Verse 31) They make it clear that they will never believe, neither in the Qur’ān nor in any divine book that preceded the Qur’ān, which in fact confirms its truth. They are not prepared to believe in any of this at any time in the future either. They are determined to disbelieve, deliberately refusing even to consider anything that points to faith. It is all, then, a well considered stance. Therefore, the sūrah puts before their eyes what happens to them on the Day of Judgement as a result of their stubborn rejection:
Ina ma ka ga yadda azzalumai za a tsayar da su a gaban Ubangijinsu, suna zargin juna! Waɗanda suke raunana a duniya za su ce wa waɗanda suka ɗauki kansu masu girma: "Da ba don ku ba, lalle mun kasance mu muminai ne." Waɗanda suka ɗauki kansu masu girma za su ce wa waɗanda suke raunana: "Shin mu ne muka hana ku bin shiriya bayan an zo muku da ita? A'a! Ku ne kuka kasance masu laifi." Waɗanda suke raunana za su amsa wa waɗanda suka ɗauki kansu masu girma: "A'a! Makircinku ne dare da rana, da kuke umurtar mu mu kafirta da God, kuma mu sanya masa abokan tarayya." Idan suka ga azabar da take jiransu, za su ɓoye nadama mai tsanani da cikakkiyar nadama. Za mu sanya sarƙoƙi a wuyan kafirai. Shin ana saka musu ne sai da abin da suka aikata?
If only you could see how the wrongdoers shall be made to stand before their Lord, hurling reproaches at one another. Those of them who were weak on earth will say to those who had deemed themselves mighty: Had it not been for you, we would certainly have been believers.’ The ones who deemed themselves mighty will say to those who were weak: ‘Was it we who prevented you from following right guidance after it had been given you? Certainly not! It was you who were guilty.’ Those who were weak will reply to those who deemed themselves mighty: Not so! It was your scheming, night and day, ordering us to disbelieve in God and to set up equals to Him.’ When they see the punishment awaiting them, they will all harbour utter and unmitigated remorse. We shall put chains round the necks of the unbelievers. Are they to be requited for anything other than what they did? (Verses 31-33)
Maganarsu cewa ba za su taba yin imani da kowane littafi da aka saukar ba, an yi ta ne a rayuwar duniya. Don haka, me za su ce a wani yanayi daban gaba daya? Da kun ga wadannan azzalumai a lokacin da ake "tsayar da su", watau an tilasta musu tsayawa, ba tare da yardarsu ko ra'ayinsu ba.

Da za ku kalle su, za ku ga yadda suke zargin juna, suna musayar tuhume-tuhume da kokarin dora laifi a kan juna. Don haka, me ne suke fadi?
Their assertion that they will never believe in any revealed book is made in this life. So, what will they say in a totally different situation? If only we could see these wrongdoers when they are ‘made to stand’, i.e. forced into it against their will or better judgement. They are guilty, made to stand and await a decision by their Lord, in whose words and scriptures they profess they will never believe. Yet now they stand before Him. If you could watch them, you would see how they reproach one another, exchanging accusations and trying to blame each other. So, what is it that they say?
"Waɗanda suka kasance raunana a bayan ƙasa za su ce wa waɗanda suka ɗauki kansu masu iko: "Da ba don ku ba, da mun kasance mumini tabbas." (Aya ta 31) Suna zargin shugabanninsu, suna dora alhakin wannan wulakanci da abin da zai biyo baya na azaba mai girma a kansu. Suna faɗin haka yanzu, amma ba su iya fuskantar su haka ba a rayuwarsu a duniya, domin raunin da biyayyar da suke da ita ta hana su. Sun sayar da 'yancin da Allah ya ba su da mutuncinsu, da kuma hankalin da Ya albarkace su da shi. Yanzu da duk ƙimomin ƙarya sun watse, kuma suna fuskantar azaba mai ɗorewa, sun iya bayyana ra'ayinsu ba tare da tsoro ba: "Da ba don ku ba, da mun kasance mumini tabbas." (Aya ta 31)"
“Those of them who were weak on earth will say to those who had deemed themselves mighty: Had it not been for you, we would certainly have been believers.” (Verse 31) They blame their leaders, accusing them of being responsible for this humiliation and what will come next of great suffering. They state this now but were totally unable to confront them in this way during their life on earth, prevented as they were by their weakness and submission. They had sold out the freedom and dignity God had granted them, as well as the reasoning He had blessed them with. Now that all false values have been discarded, and they are put face to face with a long-lasting suffering, they can express themselves without fear: “Had it not been for you, we would certainly have been believers.” (Verse 31)
Waɗanda suka riƙa ɗaukar ƙarfinsu da muhimmanci sun gaji da waɗanda suka wulaƙanta da raina. Dukansu suna fuskantar azaba ɗaya, amma raunana suna so manyan su ɗauki alhakin ɓatar da su, wanda shi ne ya kai su ga wannan wahala. Saboda haka, amsarsu tana cike da girman kai, suna ƙaryata duk wani alhaki. Haka kuma suna gaya musu a fili abin da suke tunani game da su: "Waɗanda suka ɗauka kansu masu girma za su ce wa waɗanda aka raina: Shin mu ne muka hana ku bin shiriya bayan an riga an same ku da ita? A'a, ba haka ba! Ku ne kuka aikata laifi." (Ayah ta 32)
Those who used to think much of their power base are fed up with those whom they treated with humiliation. Both face the same punishment, but the weaker elements want them to bear responsibility for leading them astray, which is what has brought them to this suffering. Therefore, their reply is haughty, disowning any responsibility. They also tell them rudely what they think of them: “The ones who deemed themselves mighty will say to those who were weak: Was it we who prevented you from following right guidance after it had been given you? Certainly not! It was you who were guilty.” (Verse 32)
Ba wai kawai suna musanta alhakin wasu ba ne, a'a, suna kuma yarda cewa saƙon da suka karɓa saƙon shiryarwa ne. A rayuwarsu ta farko, ba su damu sosai da raunana ko ra'ayoyinsu ba. A zahiri, sun yi musu kamar ba su wanzu ba, ba sa karɓar hujjarsu ko adawarsu. Yanzu da suke fuskantar azabar lahira, sai su tambaye su cikin zargi: "Shin mu ne muka hana ku bin shiryarwa ta gaskiya bayan an riga an ba ku ita?" (Aya ta 32) Tare da wannan musu akwai tuhuma: "Ku ne kuka kasance masu laifi." (Aya ta 32) Kun ƙi shiryarwar da aka ba ku ne saboda ku da kanku masu laifi ne.
It is not only that they deny responsibility for others, but they acknowledge that the message they received was one of guidance. In their first life, they paid little heed to the weak or their views. In fact, they treated them as if they did not exist, accepting neither argument nor opposition from them. Now that they are facing the punishment of the hereafter, they reproachfully ask them: “Was it we who prevented you from following right guidance after it had been given you?” (Verse 32) With this denial comes an accusation: “It was you who were guilty.” (Verse 32) You refused the guidance that was given you because you yourselves were guilty.
Had this exchange taken place in this life, the weak would have sat quietly, unable to utter a word. But on the Day of Judgement, when false airs are seen for what they are, and when the facts that were hidden are brought into the open, the weak do not accept this accusation. Instead, they speak out telling the others that it was they who consistently schemed to turn them away from God's guidance, it was they who established false beliefs, created confusion around the truth, and who used power and influence to keep people astray: "Those who were weak will reply to those who deemed themselves mighty: Not so! It was your scheming, night and day, ordering us to disbelieve in God and to set up equals to Him." (Verse 33)

Had this exchange taken place in this life, the weak would have sat quietly, unable to utter a word. But on the Day of Judgement, when false airs are seen for what they are, and when the facts that were hidden are brought into the open, the weak do not accept this accusation. Instead, they speak out telling the others that it was they who consistently schemed to turn them away from God’s guidance, it was they who established false beliefs, created confusion around the truth, and who used power and influence to keep people astray: “Those who were weak will reply to those who deemed themselves mighty: Not so! It was your scheming, night and day, ordering us to disbelieve in God and to set up equals to Him.” (Verse 33)
Dukan waɗannan ƙungiyoyi biyu za su fahimci cewa irin wannan tattaunawa mai baƙin ciki ba ta amfanar kowa. Ba za ta kuɓutar da kowannensu daga azabar da ya cancanta ba.

(Aya ta 33) Wannan bayani ne na wani hali na nadama gabaki ɗaya wanda ke sa mutum ya kasa furta kalma ɗaya.
Both groups will then realize that such a depressing dialogue benefits neither. It will not spare either the punishment they deserve. Each party is guilty of their own sins: the ones who claimed power have to account for their own sins, as well as for leading others astray; and similarly the weak are responsible for their own sins and for following tyrants. They cannot he exempt on account of the fact that they were weak. God favoured them with reason and freedom, but they chose not to use their reason and sold their freedom, accepting humiliation and servility. Thus, they all deserve to be punished. When they see the suffering they have to endure, they are in deep sorrow, regretting all that they have done: “When they see the punishment awaiting them, they will all harbour utter and unmitigated remorse.” (Verse 33) This is a description of a state of total regret that leaves the person unable to utter a word.
Zukatai sun binne, kuma leɓɓa sun rufe.
Hearts are buried and lips are sealed.
Sai a kai su wurin da za a aiwatar musu da azabarsu, mai tsanani kuma mai raɗaɗi.
They are then taken to where their punishment, hard and painful, is meted out:
"Za Mu sanya sarƙoƙi a wuyan kafirai." (Aya ta 32) Yayin da ake korarsu haka, surar ta yi magana da masu kallo, tana cewa: "Ashe, ba a sakayawa su ba face da abin da suka aikata?" (Aya ta 33)
“We shall put chains round the necks of the unbelievers.” (Verse 32) As they are being so driven, the sūrah addresses the onlookers, saying: “Are they to be requited for anything other than what they did?” (Verse 33)
An ga labule ya sauka, inda aka bar baya duka masu jin daɗin iko da waɗanda suka zama bayi masu biyayya. Dukansu azzalumai ne. Rukuni ɗaya yana aikata zalunci ta hanyar danne mutane, karkatar da gaskiya da ƙetare iyakokinsu, yayin da ɗayan rukunin kuma yana aikata zalunci ta hanyar miƙa mutuncin ɗan adam, hankali da 'yanci, suna karɓar zalunci. Dukan rukunonin biyu ana hukunta su daidai; dukansu ana sakamako musu ne kawai saboda abin da suka aikata.
The curtains are drawn leaving behind both those who enjoyed power and those who were servile. Both are wrongdoers. One group does wrong by tyrannizing, distorting the truth and exceeding their limits, while the other does wrong by surrendering their human dignity, reason and freedom, and accepting tyranny. Both groups are equally punished; both are requited only for what they did.
Ga yadda al'amarin yake, wannan yanayi yana nuna wa azzalumai abin da zai same su, yana kawo shi a rayuwa a gaban idanunsu. Suna ganin kansu a Lahira alhali suna har yanzu a wannan rayuwa. Ba haka kawai ba, har ma wasu suna ganin karshensu. Duk wannan ana yi ne tun kafin lokaci ya kare, lokacin da kowa zai iya gyara abin da ya gabata ya kuma gyara halayensa.
The scene shows the wrongdoers what they will face, bringing it alive before their very eyes. They see themselves in the hereafter while they are still in this life. Not only so, but others also see their end. All this is done when there is still time for all to make amends and correct their attitudes.
