Then I will come to them from before them and from behind them and on their right and on their left, and You will not find most of them grateful ˹to You˺."  

Then I shall come upon them from before them and from behind them and from their right and from their left, that is to say, from every side, and prevent them from following it ˹that path˺.

القرآن:٧:١٧ –

ثُمَّ لَآتِيَنَّهُمْ مِنْ بَيْنِ أَيْدِيهِمْ وَمِنْ خَلْفِهِمْ وَعَنْ أَيْمَانِهِمْ وَعَنْ شَمَائِلِهِمْ ۖ وَلَا تَجِدُ أَكْثَرَهُمْ شَاكِرِينَ  

{ثم لآتينهم من بين أيديهم ومن خلفهم وعن أيمانهم وعن شمائلهم} أي من كل جهة فأمنعهم عن سلوكه قال ابن عباس ولا يستطيع أن يأتي من فوقهم لئلا يحول بين العبد وبين رحمة الله تعالى {ولا تجد أكثرهم شاكرين} مؤمنين.
