God said: "Do not flee," meaning do not run away. "And return to the luxuries in which you lived," meaning to your worldly life in which you were granted ease, "and to your dwellings, that you might be questioned," regarding your worldly affairs; meaning: you will not be capable of that, and it will not come to pass. This is said to them in mockery of them.
قَالَ الله: ﴿لَا تركضوا﴾ لَا تَفِرُّوا. ﴿وَارْجِعُوا إِلَى مَا أترفتم فِيهِ﴾ أَيْ: إِلَى دُنْيَاكُمُ الَّتِي أُتْرِفْتُمْ فِيهَا ﴿ومساكنكم لَعَلَّكُمْ تسْأَلُون﴾ مِنْ دُنْيَاكُمْ شَيْئًا؛ أَيْ: لَا تَقْدِرُونَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ، وَلَا يَكُونُ ذَلِكَ؛ يُقَالُ لَهُمْ هَذَا اسْتِهْزَاءٌ بهم.
