Does the verse: ﴿And if you could but see when they are made to stand before the Fire and say, "Oh, would that we could be returned [to life on earth] and not deny the signs of our Lord and be among the believers" But what they concealed before has become manifest to them. And if they were returned, they would return to that which they were forbidden; and indeed, they are liars﴾ include all disbelievers, and is it true that if they were returned, they would revert to their disbelief, so there is no need to grieve for them?

The two verses, 27-28, from Al-An'am illustrate the state of disbelievers on the Day of Resurrection, where they stand before the Fire, wishing to return to the world to believe and not deny the verses of their Lord. However, this wish of theirs is false, for what they used to conceal of disbelief and disobedience in the world has become manifest to them. And even if they were sent back, they would return to that which they were forbidden.
