Transliteration:( Wa qad kafaroo bihee min qablu wa yaqzifoona bilghaibi min makaanin ba'eed )
"That they had disbelieved in it before and they utter conjecture with regard to the unseen from a distant [150] place."
This verse refers to those who had previously rejected the truth and now speak foolishly about matters of the unseen from a place far removed from knowledge and reality. Their claims against the dignity and truth of the Holy Prophet ﷺ are unfounded and far from the truth, reflecting ignorance and arrogance.
