Tafsir Ibn Kathir on Ar-Rum 30:57

Surah Ar-Rum 30:57



ﲧ ﲨ ﲩ ﲪ ﲫ ﲬ ﲭ ﲮ ﲯ

So that Day, their excuse will not benefit those who wronged, nor will they be asked to appease [Allah].

فيوميذ

So, on that Day, meaning, the Day of Resurrection,

ﻻ ينفع الذين ظلموا معذرتهم

no excuse of theirs will avail those who did wrong, means, their excuses for what they did.

وﻻ هم يستعتبون

nor will they be allowed (then) to return to seek (Allah's) pleasure. means, they will not be allowed to return to this world. This is like the Ayah,

وإن يستعتبوا فما هم من المعتبين

and if they seek to please (Allah), yet they are not of those who will ever be allowed to please (Allah). (41:24)
