The theme that follows shows that the argument was about Resurrection and life after death, which the people of Makkah were denying and also mocking at it at the same time. This can be understood by an example. If a person only wants to affirm the truth of the Messenger, he will say: By God, the Messenger has come with the truth. But if some people might be denying the truth of the Messenger, he in response would rejoin, thus: Nay, by God, the Messenger has come with the truth. It would mean: That which you say is not true. I swear that the truth is this and this. ### Abdel Khalek Himmat — Al- Muntakhab I swear by the Day of Resurrection, ### Bijan Moeinian I (God) swear that Resurrection will surely take place. ### Al-Hilali & Khan I swear by the Day of Resurrection. ### Abdullah Yusuf Ali I do call to witness the Resurrection Day; ### Mustafa Khattab — The Clear Quran I do swear by the Day of Judgment! ### Taqi Usmani I swear by the Day of Resurrection, ### Abdul Haleem By the Day of Resurrection ### Arthur John Arberry No!
