38(It will be said to them,) “This is the Day of Decision. We have assembled you and the earlier ones together. 39Now, if you have a trick, use the trick against Me.” 40Woe that Day to the deniers! 41Of course, the God-fearing will be amid shades and streams, 42and fruits of their desire. 43It will be said to them, “Eat and drink with pleasure because of what you used to do.” 44This is how We reward those who do good deeds. 45Woe that Day to the deniers!

Commentary

We have gathered you and the former ones. This is a clarification of His saying: 'This is the Day of Judgment,' because when it is the Day of Judgment between the happy and the miserable, and between the prophets and their nations, it is necessary to gather the former and the latter, so that this judgment can take place between them. If you have a plot, then plot against me. This is a reprimand to them for their plotting against the religion of Allah and its followers, and a registration against them of weakness and submission. Eat and drink, in the position of the state of the righteous, in the circumstance which is in the shades, meaning: they are settled in the shades, said to them.
