And they used to say, "When we die and become dust and bones, are we indeed to be resurrected?

And they used to say, ‘What! When we are dead and have become dust and bones, shall we indeed be resurrected? (in both instances ˹a-idhā and a-innā˺ the two hamzas may be read either by pronouncing them fully, or by not pronouncing the second, and in either case inserting an intervening alif).

They said, "When we have died and become dust and bones, are we indeed to be resurrected?

They, the ancients, said, ‘What, when we are dead and have become dust and bones, shall we then be raised? No! (the two hamzas in each of the two instances are either pronounced fully, or with the second one not pronounced, but with an alif inserted between the two ˹hamzas˺ in both ˹readings˺).

قَالُوا أَإِذَا مِتْنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابًا وَعِظَامًا أَإِنَّا لَمَبْعُوثُونَ

When we have died and become dust and bones, are we indeed to be resurrected?

quran:37:53 –

That when we have died and become dust and bones, we will indeed be recompensed?'"

˹that˺ when we are dead and have become dust and bones, we shall actually be called to account?” ’, that we shall be requited and reckoned with — he rejects ˹the truth of˺ this as well (as regards all three instances of the hamzas ˹sc. a-innaka, a-idhā, and a-innā˺ what has been mentioned above ˹applies˺).

القرآن:٣٧:٥٣ –

أَإِذَا مِتْنَا وَكُنَّا تُرَابًا وَعِظَامًا أَإِنَّا لَمَدِينُونَ

{أئذا متنا وكنا ترابا وعظاما أئنا} في الهمزتين في الثلاثة مواضع ما تقدم {لمدينون} مجزيون ومحاسبون؟ أنكر ذلك أيضا.
