وَما أَدراكَ ما عِلِّيّونَ

And what will show you what is ʿilliyyūn?

EXPOSITION

The rhetorical question in this verse indicates that the great status and importance of ʿilliyyīn is such that it is beyond any human comprehension. Even the Prophet with his great status and insight cannot imagine the great dimensions of ʿilliyyīn.^{‎[1]Amthal, 20/34.}

The verses indicate that the decreed reward for the good deeds of the pious is in ʿilliyyīn, which is beyond any description or comprehension, an exalted rank, and highness on top of highness.^{‎[2]Mizan, 20/235.}
