Allah then states that,
﴿إِنَّ الْمُنَـفِقِينَ فِى الدَّرْكِ
الاٌّسْفَلِ مِنَ النَّارِ﴾
(Verily, the hypocrites will be in the lowest depths of the Fire;) on the Day of
Resurrection due to their tremendous Kufr. Al-Walibi ﴿`Ali bin Abi Talhah﴾ said
that Ibn `Abbas said,
﴿فِى الدَّرْكِ الاٌّسْفَلِ مِنَ النَّارِ﴾
(in the lowest depths (grade) of the Fire;) means, in the bottom of the Fire. Other
scholars said that the Fire has ever lower depths just as Paradise had ever higher
grades. Ibn Jarir recorded that `Abdullah bin Mas`ud said that,
﴿إِنَّ الْمُنَـفِقِينَ فِى الدَّرْكِ
الاٌّسْفَلِ مِنَ النَّارِ﴾
(Verily, the hypocrites will be in the lowest depths (grade) of the Fire), "Inside
coffins of Fire that surround them, for they are closed and sealed in them.'' Ibn
Abi Hatim recorded that when Ibn Mas`ud was asked about the hypocrites, he said,
"They will be placed in coffins made of fire and they will be closed in them in
the lowest depth of the Fire.''
﴿وَلَن تَجِدَ لَهُمْ نَصِيراً﴾
(no helper will you find for them. ) to save them from their misery and painful
torment. Allah then states that whoever among the hypocrites repents in this life,
Allah will accept his repentance and sorrow, if his repentance were sincere and
he then follows it by performing righteous deeds, all the while depending on his
Lord. Allah said, a
﴿إِلاَّ الَّذِينَ تَابُواْ وَأَصْلَحُواْ
وَاعْتَصَمُواْ بِاللَّهِ وَأَخْلَصُواْ دِينَهُمْ للَّهِ﴾
(Except those who repent (from hypocrisy), do righteous good deeds, depend on Allah,
and purify their religion for Allah) replacing showing off with sincerity, so that
their good deeds will benefit them, even if they were minute.
﴿فَأُوْلَـئِكَ مَعَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ﴾
(then they will be with the believers.) on the Day of Resurrection,
﴿وَسَوْفَ يُؤْتِ اللَّهُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
أَجْراً عَظِيماً﴾
(And Allah will grant to the believers a great reward.) Allah then states that He
is too Rich to need anyone and that He only punishes the servants because of their
sins,
﴿مَّا يَفْعَلُ اللَّهُ بِعَذَابِكُمْ
إِن شَكَرْتُمْ وَءَامَنْتُمْ﴾
(Why should Allah punish you if you have thanked (Him) and have believed in Him.)
by correcting your actions and having faith in Allah and His Messenger ,
﴿وَكَانَ اللَّهُ شَـكِراً عَلِيماً﴾
(And Allah is Ever All-Appreciative (of good), All-Knowing.) Allah appreciates those
who appreciate Him, and has knowledge of those whose hearts believe in Him, and
He will give them perfect rewar.
﴿لاَّ يُحِبُّ اللَّهُ
الْجَهْرَ بِالسُّوءِ مِنَ الْقَوْلِ إِلاَّ مَن ظُلِمَ وَكَانَ اللَّهُ سَمِيعاً عَلِيماً
- إِن تُبْدُواْ خَيْراً أَوْ تُخْفُوهْ أَوْ تَعْفُواْ عَن سُوءٍ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ
كَانَ عَفُوّاً قَدِيراً ﴾
(148. Allah does not like that the evil should be uttered in public except by him
who has been wronged. And Allah is Ever All-Hearer, All-Knower.) (149. Whether you
disclose a good deed or conceal it, or pardon an evil, verily, Allah is Ever Pardoning,
All-Powerful.)
