Commentary
And when they were acknowledging that, He informed about their response before their response, so that it may be one of the signs of prophethood and the indicators of the message by His saying, as a continuation: ﴿They will say﴾ meaning certainly: all of that ﴿is for Allah﴾ meaning the One who is characterized by the attributes of perfection. And when that indicated on the oneness and uniqueness of complete power from two aspects: the fact that all of that is His, and the fact that He informs about His enemy of something that cannot be denied, He said: ﴿Say﴾ meaning to them when they say that to you, denying it, as a reason for their not remembering it, even in the slightest ways, by what the merging indicates: ﴿Do you not remember﴾ meaning by that which is ingrained in your nature, which you are certain of, what you have neglected of His complete power and overwhelming greatness, so that you may affirm what He has informed about the resurrection, which is less than that, and you may know that nothing of it - and it is His dominion - is suitable to be a partner for Him or a child, and you may know that it is not correct in wisdom at all that He would leave the resurrection because the least of you would not be satisfied with leaving the reckoning of His servants and being just among them.
