فَبِاَیِّ اٰلَآءِ رَبِّکُمَا تُکَذِّبَانِ
The dual form in Tukadhdhiban may have been used for the two classes of jinn and men referred to in v.34, or it may signify two classes of men, viz. believers and disbelievers, leaders and their followers, the rich and the poor, or the white and the coloured races. Or, the dual form may have been used to impart emphasis in order to denote the dignity of the commandment embodied in the various verses. Such dual form is generally used in the Arabic language. See also 50:25. The Holy Prophet is reported to have said that when this verse is recited the believers present should respond by uttering the words 'None of Thy favours, Our Lord, do we deny and for Thee is all praise' (Kathir).

ھم الملوک و أبناء الملوک لھم
