श्लोक: 50

وَلَوۡ تَرَىٰٓ إِذۡ يَتَوَفَّى ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ ٱلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةُ يَضۡرِبُونَ وُجُوهَهُمۡ وَأَدۡبَٰرَهُمۡ وَذُوقُواْ عَذَابَ ٱلۡحَرِيقِ

(50) If only you could see ˹Muhammad˺ when the angels take the lives of the Deniers beating their faces and their backsides, and ˹say to them˺: “Taste you the Punishment of burning!”^[1967]

[1967] al-Ṭabarī opines that this was what the angel did and said to the Associators who perished in the Battle of Badr. Ibn Kathīr, on the other hand, sees it as being of general purport: “… if only you could see ˹Muhammad˺ when the wrongdoers are in the throes of death and the angels stretch their hands to them ˹saying˺: “Give up your souls. Today you will be rewarded the Punishment of degradation for saying what is false against Allah and snubbing His Signs”” (6: 93); “How ˹horrible˺ will it be when the angels take their lives, beating their faces and their backsides?” (47: 27).
