81. Nay, but they say
the like of that which said the men of old.
82. They say: When we
are dead and have become (mere) dust and bones, shall we then, forsooth, be
raised again?
83. We were already
promised this, we and our forefathers. Lo! This is naught but fables of the
men of old.

Commentary
‘Asaa-tiiru – (fables), this word is plural of ‘ustuuratun,
which has been derived from satara. Satar means “to draw a line”.
‘Ustuuratun means “the story which has been being told since long”. Mankind
is a slave to old customs and rites and desires to behave as the ancient people
had already been conducting. He repeats often the same which old people used to
do. There are very less people who use their sense.
Holy Qur’an says: you should not consider that your
forefathers were right in all matters. Many matters from those are wrong or
those are changed in process of time from right to wrong.
It is commanded: these people who have been denying concerning
the life of the mankind after death, is not any new thing. Those people who
passed away before them used to say also the same. When the Prophets (peace be
upon them) caused to understand them that after causing death to the human
beings Allaah Almighty will give them life again, then they began to
say: we are unable to understand that when a person is died, his flesh is
dissolved and wasted, only skeleton of bones is remainder, which is only for
some more days and it will also be finished, then how the mankind will come to
life again and how will he get up. Such matters are being described to us, which
are not reasonable (Let us flee to God). The same were told to our ancestors also
before us. These were fabricated by some ancient people and are baseless. Now the
same are being repeated again and again. If these fables were true; then ever a
heap of dust would have become a living mankind and stand before us.
