Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)

The Hour will come so that each Person will be rewarded or punished in accordance with His DeedsThis is one of three Ayat -- there is no fourth -- where Allah commands His Messenger to swear by His Almighty Lord that the resurrection will surely come, because the stubborn followers of disbelief denied that it would happen.
