Grammar Rules
Passive voice
يُبَصَّرُونَهُمْ ۚ (They will be made to see each other) is passive — the action is happening to someone, but who is doing it is not mentioned.
We translate it as "is/was [done]" — e.g. "was created", "is known".
Verb form II — intensified
يُبَصَّرُونَهُمْ ۚ (They will be made to see each other) uses form II (فَعَّلَ) — the middle letter is doubled, which makes the meaning stronger or causative.
The meaning is more intense than the basic form, or means "to make someone do [action]".
Sahih International
They will be shown each other. The criminal will wish that he could be ransomed from the punishment of that Day by his children.
