Someone calling to them for help cried out: "Do you see this? For what sin?!"

بِأَيِّ for what

A 'bi-' fused to the question word 'which/what', together asking 'for what...?' or 'on account of which...?'. The preposition gives the question a 'by reason of' slant, and it governs the noun after it into the 'of'-style ending, so the unit demands the specific sin that could justify the suffering.
