Exegesis of the saying of Allah the Exalted: (Nay! He will surely be cast into the Crusher)]

Allah the Exalted said:
No! He will surely be thrown into the Crusher.كَلَّا لَيُنْبَذَنَّ فِي الْحُطَمَةِ
[Al-Humazah: 4] (Nay) Here, the scholars call it a letter of deterrence,Meaning: which deters this speaker or this accountant from his speech or from his accounting. It is also possible that it means "truly" (meaning: truly he will be cast). Both interpretations are correct. This man’s wealth will not make him immortal, nor will his fame make him immortal. Rather, he will be forgotten and his mention will be folded away, and perhaps he will be remembered with ill repute; because he did not fulfill what Allah made obligatory upon him of giving.
He will surely be thrown into the Crusher.لَيُنْبَذَنَّ فِي الْحُطَمَةِ
[Al-Humazah: 4] (The letter lam) This occurs in the answer to the implied oath,and the implied meaning is: (By Allah, he will surely be cast into the Crusher) meaning: he will be thrown with a throwing,And if we say: If the lam in the answer to the oath is considered, this phrase becomes emphasized by the lam, the nūn of emphasis, and the deleted oath. There is much of this in the Noble Qur'an,Meaning: Emphasizing a thing by the oath, the lam, and the nūn is common in the Qur'an. Allah the Exalted swears by a thing to emphasize it and to magnify its status.

And his statement: ((He will surely be cast)) [Al-Humazah: 4] What is being cast: is it the owner of the wealth or the wealth?We may say: Both are cast, as for the owner of the wealth, Allah says in another verse:
On the Day they are driven into the Fire of Hell with a drivingيَوْمَ يُدَعُّونَ إِلَى نَارِ جَهَنَّمَ دَعّاً
[Al-Tur: 13] meaning: they are driven, and here it says: (cast) meaning: thrown (into the Crusher) and the Crusher: is that which crushes a thing, meaning: it shatters and breaks it. So what is it?
