﴿ ثُمَّ لَءَاتِيَنَّهُم مِّنۢ بَيْنِ أَيْدِيهِمْ وَمِنْ خَلْفِهِمْ وَعَنْ أَيْمَٰنِهِمْ وَعَن شَمَآئِلِهِمْ ۖ وَلَا تَجِدُ أَكْثَرَهُمْ شَٰكِرِينَ ﴾

“and shall most certainly fall upon them openly as well as in a manner beyond their ken, and from their right and from their left: and most of them Thou wilt find ungrateful."”

Then I shall come upon them from before them and from behind them and from their right and from their left that is to say from every side and prevent them from following it that path. Ibn ‘Abbās said ‘However he cannot come upon them from above lest he come between the servant and the mercy of God exalted be He’. And You will not find most of them thankful’ believing.
