93قُل رَبِّ إِمّا تُرِيَنّي ما يوعَدونَMuhammad AsadSAY: "O my Sustainer! If it be Thy will to let me witness1 [the fulfilment of] whatever they [who blaspheme against Thee] have been promised [to suffer] -Lit., "to show me" [Sc., "in my lifetime"]. According to Zamakhshari, the combination of the conditional particle in ("if") with ma ("that which" or "whatever") - spelt and pronounced imma - endows the verb turini (lit., "Thow wilt show me") with the quality of in tnnsic necessity - thus: "If it is inevitable (la budd) that Thou show me [or "let me witness"]...", etc. In translation, this particular phrasing is best rendered as above, since anything that is God's will becomes eo ipso inevitable.
