Can he against whom the word of chastisement has been fulfilled …?, namely [the words], I will surely fill Hell [with jinn and mankind together] [Q. 11:119]; Will you deliver, bring out, one who is in the Fire? (this is the response to the conditional clause, in which the overt qualification [man fī'l-nār, 'one who is in the Fire'] replaces the pronominalisation [a-fa-man, 'he … whom']; the hamza [in a-fa-anta, 'will you'] is for rejection, in other words [the sense is that] you will not be able to guide him and therefore deliver him from the Fire).
