Commentary

And they said, this is an addition to 'if they were returned'. That is, even if they were returned, they would disbelieve and would say, 'There is nothing but our worldly life,' as they used to say before witnessing the Day of Resurrection. It is also permissible to connect it to the saying: 'And indeed, they are liars,' in the sense that they are certainly a people who lie about everything, and they are the ones who said: 'There is nothing but our worldly life.' And it is enough as evidence of their falsehood.
