Past tense verb

وَقَالَ (And said) is a past tense verb — the action already happened and is complete.

We translate it in past tense — "did", "created", "said", etc.

Conjunction وَ (and)

وَقَالَ (And said) starts with وَ, the most common Arabic word — it means "and".

We add "and" to connect this to what came before.

And your Lord says, "Call upon Me; I will respond to you." Indeed, those who disdain My worship will enter Hell [rendered] contemptible.
