Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)
The Number of Guardians of Hell and what the Disbelievers said about thatAllah says,وَمَا جَعَلْنَآ أَصْحَـبَ النَّارِ(And We have set none as (Ashab) guardians of the Fire) meaning, its guardians.إِلاَّ مَلَـئِكَةً(but angels.) Guardian angels, stern and severe. This is a refutation of the idolators of the Quraysh when they mentioned the number of guardian angels.
