Quran Chapter 3- 87 & 88 (Pt-3, Stg-1) (L-416) - درس قرآن

The Chastisement

Surah ‘Aali-‘Im-raan (The Family of ‘Imran) – Chptr – 3) 

‘A-‘uu-zu  Billaahi minash-Shay-taanir- Rajiim.
(I seek refuge in God from Satan the outcast)

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.

(In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful)

  أُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ جَزَآؤُهُمْ أَنَّ عَلَيْهِمْ لَعْنَةَ ٱللَّهِ وَٱلْمَلَٰٓئِكَةِ وَٱلنَّاسِ أَجْمَعِينَ 87

  خَٰلِدِينَ فِيهَا لَايُخَفَّفُ عَنْهُمُ ٱلْعَذَابُ وَلَا هُمْ يُنظَرُونَ 88

87.  As for such, their guerdon is that on them rests the curse of Allah and of angels and of men combined-        

88.  They will abide therein for ever. Their doom will not be lightened, neither will they be reprieved.         
87.  ‘Ulaaa-‘ika  jazaaa-‘uhum  ‘anna  ‘alayhim la’-natAllaahi  wal-malaaa-‘ikati  wannaasi  ‘ajma-‘iin.       

88. Khaalidiina  fiihaa.  Laa 
yukhaffafu  ‘anhumul-‘azaabu  wa  laa  hum yunzaruun.            

Commentary
      
The religious and worldly wrong deeds and evils of which persons were described in the previous verses, now their specific chastisement has been mentioned; those persons will be punished because of their wrongdoing and dishonesty. Their biggest sin is that they tried to falsify the truth after understanding it. They turned away notwithstanding knowing the path of goodness, were not attentive towards the preachers of rectitude and righteousness.

This same trick was of the Jews and the Christians. These people had known by reciting the Scriptures (Heavenly Books) that after the Prophets Moses and Jesus (peace be upon them), the last Messenger, Muhammad (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) will be sent. When he was born, they refused after knowing him (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him).

Punishment for those people is that on them rests the curse of Allah, His angels (peace be upon them) and of the men combined. In addition, they also shun themselves personally, when they say from their own tongues, “Allah’s curse on liars and wrongdoers” doing so they reprove in fact themselves.

For them, this curse is for ever. Moreover, they will be entangled in grievous torment on the Day of Resurrection. Neither their doom will be lightened, nor will they be reprieved for a while. The fire has not a characteristic that it would lessen its heat, burning or inflammation for some time. That fire would be brought by Omnipotent and it would be Divine wrath for them.

Usually those people strengthen the power of badness who after understanding the reality of goodness, adopt the path of evil only due to following the casual, fickle and useless motives. These people mostly harm the power of goodness. Other persons are deceived strongly by their deception. Their faith becomes unsettled. Their belief on goodness is weakened.

Those people who have doubts in the path of guidance and good fortune, actually they become also the cause of others’ depravity. Due to their natural disposition of this indirect badness, they are settled to deserve the curse.  The curse of Allah Almighty, His angels (peace be upon them), the Muslims and the persons of good souls (combined) rests on them.

la’-natAllaahi – (the curse of Allah), la-‘a-na is its root. Mal-‘uun is he, who is accursed. It means distance and the
curse. According to phraseology, it means the distance from the pity, mercy and exclusion from favor and bounty of Allah Almighty is called ‘Curse’.
