بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ

40.11-12

قَالُوْا رَبَّنَاۤ اَمَتَّنَا اثْنَتَیْنِ وَ اَحْیَیْتَنَا اثْنَتَیْنِ فَاعْتَرَفْنَا بِذُنُوْبِنَا فَهَلْ اِلٰى خُرُوْجٍ مِّنْ سَبِیْلٍ(11) ذٰلِكُمْ بِاَنَّهٗۤ اِذَا دُعِیَ اللّٰهُ وَحْدَهٗ كَفَرْتُمْۚ-وَ اِنْ یُّشْرَكْ بِهٖ تُؤْمِنُوْاؕ-فَالْحُكْمُ لِلّٰهِ الْعَلِیِّ الْكَبِیْرِ(12)

Kanz-ul-Irfan

They will say, “O our Lord! You have caused us to die twice and You have granted us life twice, [1] so we confess to our sins; so is there a way to escape?” This is because when Allah alone was called upon, you disbelieved. And if partners were ascribed to Him, you believed. So the command belongs to Allah, the Most-Superior, the Most-Great.

Commentary

[1]

Dying twice and living twice refers to the initial form of the disbelievers as lifeless drops, their subsequent life in this world, then their death, and finally, their resurrection on the Day of Reckoning.
