Transliteration:( Qaaloo balaa qad jaaa'anaa nazeerun fakazzabnaa wa qulnaa maa nazzalal laahu min shai in in antum illaa fee dalaalin kabeer )
22. Since the infidels will perceive through conjecture that now rejection of the advent of the Prophets will become a means of receiving a beating from the angels. Therefore, they will tell the truth. They will not tell lies here, like on the Day of Judgement.
23. This tells us that those people to whom the teachings of the Prophets did not reach at all, they will be punished for their polytheism only and not for any other thing. An example of this is the people of FATRAT, who had died before the advent of the Holy Prophet (Peace be upon him). No teaching of any of the Prophets was able to reach them.
