Core sense — desisting from their unbelief; separated into parties; at restgenerated

1

In the Qurʾān 98:1, followed by the words حَتَّى تَأْتِيَهُمُ ٱلْبَيِّنَةُ.

Mujāhid and Zj: in the condition of desisting from their unbelief. Akh: ceasing from their unbelief.

Or, according to another, namely Niftaweyh: quitting the present state of existence, that is, sharing, one with another, in perdition, until the evidence came to them that had been affirmed to them in the Torah, with respect to the description of Mohammad and the like; تَأْتِيَهُم being literally a muḍāriʿ, but past in its meaning.

Az says that it is not from مَا ٱنْفَكَّ, meaning مَا زَالَ, but from اِنْفِكَاكُ الشَّىْءِ مِنَ الشَّىْءِ, meaning “the thing's becoming separated from the thing”.

IAar, as mentioned by Th: فُكَّ فُلَانٌ means “such a one was set free, and at rest, from a thing”; and hence منفكّين in the Qurʾān means experiencing rest.

Er-Rāghib: separated, or separated into several parties; for all [to whom the word, preceded by a negative, relates] were assenting to error.
