Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)

The Deniers will never believe until They see the TormentAllah says: `thus We caused denial, disbelief, rejection and stubbornness to enter the hearts of the sinners.'لاَ يُؤْمِنُونَ بِهِ(They will not believe in it), i.e., the truth,حَتَّى يَرَوُاْ الْعَذَابَ الاٌّلِيمَ(until they see the painful torment.) means, when their excuses will be of no avail, and the curse will be upon them, and theirs will be an evil abode.
