The words in the text mean: “On the Day of Resurrection they will be among the maqbuhin”, which has several meanings: (l) They will stand rejected and repulsed; (2) they will be wholly deprived of Allah’s mercy; and (3) they will be severely beaten up and their faces will become distorted.
[2]Qira’at: All except for ʻAsem, Hamza, Al-Kesa’i and Khalaf read it as: “. . . and the Maker of the night for rest . . .”
