Allah, glorious and majestic is He, said: I will inform them on your behalf, and so He revealed Think not of those, who are slain in the way of Allah, as dead | He said: I ask you to take me back to the life of the world so that I get killed again for Your sake |

Others have mentioned that whenever the families of the martyrs tasted a blessing or sensed happiness, they felt some sorrow, saying:We are enjoying blessings and happiness while our fathers, sons and brothers are in the graves, and so Allah, exalted is He, revealed this verse to ease their sorrow and to inform about the state of their killed ones | Nay, they are alive, with their Lord, and they have provision |
He would like to be returned to this life so that he could be martyred again, for he tastes the honor achieved from martyrdom.
22Allah states that even though the martyrs were killed in this life, their souls are alive and receiving provisions in the Dwelling of Everlasting Life | Roh-roh mereka berada dalam kantong burung-burung hijau yang beterbangan dalam surga ke mana saja mereka kehendaki sebagaimana tersebut dalam sebuah hadis dengan mendapat rezeki yaitu dengan memakan buah-buahan surga |

And a group of Quranic commentators mentioned that this verse was revealed about the martyrs of the Battle of Bir Maunah whose story is well known; it was mentioned by Ibn Ishaq ibn Yasar in his book al-Maghazi | I said: My father was killed and left behind dependents and debts |
Allah said to him: It has already been decreed that they shall not go back to it.
