The commentators in the interpretation of the phrases: " See how they lie against themselves" and " Lo! they are liar" in Surah An'am, about the possibility or impossibility of telling a lie on the Day of Resurrection and about the object of the lie have given different views classified here into three main groups. This study by examining the opinions and reasons presented by the commentators and considering the relationship between the verses shows that lying is possible on the Day of Resurrection. It also shows what the pagans are lying about in these verses. Apart from the discussion of the truth and falsehood of the wish and promise put forward by the commentators, there is a feeling or concept of expressing faith in this verse that the commentators have not addressed. Paying attention to the phrases that are given in these verses and the verses before and after them, shows that the polytheists have apparently surrendered and believed, and the lie in this verse is related to this expression of the faith of the polytheists.
