Commentary
'For which Day' means 'a great Day.' 'It has been postponed' means that its postponement has occurred by it. It is built for the passive form because the intended meaning is the realization of the appointed time, not that it is from a specified one. This indicates that the specified one is known to be Allah, who no one can overpower. Then he answered this question by saying, changing from 'For which Day'.
