2. It will then be said to them, ‘No’ God, exalted be He, says: Verily they
have lost their souls, for they have ended up in perdition, and that which they used to invent, in alleging [that God has] a partner, has failed, has
abandoned, them.
7: 53 Implicature
1. [we need intercessors whom they save us from God’s punishment because
of our sins] [If we have a chance to re-life, we would be the true believers]
2. [they harmed themselves, because in the end they will enter the Hell for
eternity] [What they used to worship instead of Allah abandoned them and will not
intercede or save them from punishment]
7: 53 The way of the speaker implied the implicature
1. Directly and Indirectly
2. Directly
The first utterance is uttered by unbelievers. They are people who disregarded the Day of Resurrection or who ignored their life in hereafter, so that they never
obey God’s rule or be a good human. When the Day of Resurrection came, they realize and regret for everything that they do wrongly in their life. Then, they said
that they need intercessors to save their life, because before it they believe that Allah sent His Messengers to come with the truth, and now, they need someone
like His Messengers to give their intercession or syafaat to save their life. Based on their statement, the way of unbelievers expressed their intention is directly,

whenever there is relationship between structure of sentence and its function, which declarative refers to statement
The next, they continue their statements, they begged a chance to life again in the world, so that they would be the true believers or correct all their mistakes,
because they want to get a mercy or forgiveness from Allah for everything that they have done which is break the law of true rule of life. However, if God
fulfilled their request, they would not deny the verses of Allah, and would not be of the believers. This part is similar to Allah’s statement in Surah Al An’am:27-
28, as the previous explanation Tafseer Ibn Katsir Juz 8: 350-351. The way of unbelievers expressed their implied meaning is indirectly, whenever there is no
relationship between structure of sentence and its function, which the sentence is interrogative and refers to the function of request or command, instead of
question. Overall, regarding the contribution of Cooperative Principle, according to
these implicature, truly they are saying nothing. In other words, they do not really regret it, so that they are really a liar to say that, because it is the last way for them
to be forgiven by Allah. The second utterance is Allah responds the unbelievers’ statement previously.
For their begging, Allah responded by stating indirectly conversation, which is written after their statements, “In fact they will have lost their souls, and the
things they invented will leave them in the lurch.” The way of Allah expressed His intention is directly, whenever there is relationship between structure of
sentence and its function, which declarative refers to statement. Moreover,

regarding the contribution of Cooperative Principle, He said cooperatively, even seemly does not clearly answer ‘yes’ or ‘no’ for the begging of unbelievers.
However, the implicature are implied in His statements respond their begging, in which they will not get their request, because they will enter the eternity hell. It
means that He observe the maxim relevance. In addition, He informed the truth quality and quite informative quantity.
