Commentary

﴿So they are filled﴾ meaning a filling that is in the utmost stability, while you are in the utmost inclination towards it, along with what is upon it of great dislike. ﴿From it﴾ meaning the tree, it is feminine because it is a plural of tree or it is a name of a genus. They dislike females, so its being feminine - and Allah knows best - is an increase in their aversion to it. ﴿The bellies﴾ meaning for something amazing that forces you to consume this disliked thing from what is more intensely disliked by layers of hunger or otherwise. And if it is interpreted by what they said, that it is known to them that it is the butter with dates, that does not harm, rather the meaning is that they are filled from it like one who eats from this in the world, while it is known that there is nothing in the fire prepared for punishment for whom it has been prepared for punishment that is good.
