Commentary
And when all of that is a wonderful matter for the minds, shaking for the hearts, disturbing for the souls, and perhaps the rough and unrefined would stop at it, he confirmed his matter and increased in its terror, and he elaborated in its magnification and glorification, indicating that its horror surpasses description by his saying, informing that it is something that is right for him to inquire about using the tool of inquiry intended for the glorification of the matter, and that the news is not like the sight: ﴿What is the Great Event?﴾ So the tool of inquiry is the subject that he informed about with the Great Event, and they are both news about the first, and the connection is the repetition of the subject by its wording like Zayd, meaning what is it, and most often this occurs when the meaning of glorification and terror is intended.
