Tafsir
Ibn Kathīr (abridged)
The Angels smite the Disbelievers upon capturing Their Souls
Allah says, if you witnessed the angels capturing the souls of the disbelievers, you would witness a tremendous, terrible, momentous and awful matter,
يَضْرِبُونَ وُجُوهَهُمْ وَأَدْبَـرَهُمْ
(they smite their faces and their backs), saying to them,
وَذُوقُواْ عَذَابَ الْحَرِيقِ
("Taste the punishment of the blazing Fire.")
