آية: 20

أُوْلَٰٓئِكَ لَمۡ يَكُونُواْ مُعۡجِزِينَ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَمَا كَانَ لَهُم مِّن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ مِنۡ أَوۡلِيَآءَۘ يُضَٰعَفُ لَهُمُ ٱلۡعَذَابُۚ مَا كَانُواْ يَسۡتَطِيعُونَ ٱلسَّمۡعَ وَمَا كَانُواْ يُبۡصِرُونَ

(20) These were never to frustrate ˹Us˺ in the land and they would never have allies besides Allah^[2517]; Punishment will be doubled^[2518] for them—they were never able to hear nor were they seeing^[2519].

[2517] This is a direct warning. In this worldly life, the Deniers cannot escape God and none can save them from Him (cf. al-Ṭabarī, al-Saʿdī).
[2518] “He ˹Allah˺ said: “Enter you to join nations of humans and jinn, who passed away before you, in Hellfire”. Whenever a nation enters, it damns its sister; until when they are all amassed in it, the last of them says to the first of them: “Our Lord! These are the ones who misled us, so give them double the Punishment in Hellfire”. He ˹Allah˺ said: “There is double ˹Punishment˺ for everyone but you do not know”” (7: 38).
[2519] “Among them are those who ‘listen’ to you; are you to make the deaf hear ˹you˺, even if they heed not! *Among them are those who ‘look’ at you; are you to guide the blind even if they ‘see’ not!” (10: 42-43).
