Transliteration:( Summa lam takun fitnatuhum illaaa an qaaloo wallaahi Rabbinaa maa kunnaa mushrikeen )
46. Firstly these people will try to deny their crimes then on another occasion they will admit them. Hence, there is no inconsistency in the verse. Also, the denial of these polytheists would be deliberate, otherwise, every person on that day would be fully aware of his deeds.Says Allah Almighty: "That day when man will call to mind all that he strove for." (S79:V35) For this reason it is said "they lied against themselves" meaning they lied deliberately against themselves. Hence, the meaning of the verse is crystal clear.
