Allah the Exalted says,
[تِلْكَ آيَـتُ
اللَّهِ]
(These are the Ayat of Allah) -- in reference to the Qur'an with the proofs
and evidences that it contains,
[نَتْلُوهَا عَلَيْكَ
بِالْحَقِّ]
(which We recite to you with truth.) for they contain the truth from the
Truth (i.e., Allah). Therefore, if they do not believe in Allah's Ayat nor abide
by them, what speech after Allah and His Ayat will they then believe in Allah
said next,
[وَيْلٌ لِّكُلِّ
أَفَّاكٍ أَثِيمٍ ]
(Woe to every sinful liar.) who lies in his speech, often swears, who is
worthless, commits and utters sinful acts and statements, and disbelieves in
Allah's Ayat,
[يَسْمَعُ ءَايَـتِ
اللَّهِ تُتْلَى عَلَيْهِ]
(Who hears the Ayat of Allah Tutla (recited) to him,) meaning, being recited
to him,
[ثُمَّ
يُصِرُّ]
(yet persists) in his disbelief, denial, pride and rebellion,
[كَأَن لَّمْ
يَسْمَعْهَا]
(as if he heard them not. ) as if he did not hear them being recited to him,
[فَبَشِّرْهُ
بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ]
(So announce to him a painful torment!) convey the news to him that on the
Day of Resurrection, he will have a painful, severe torment from Allah. Allah
said,
[وَإِذَا عَلِمَ مِنْ
ءَايَـتِنَا شَيْئاً اتَّخَذَهَا هُزُواً]
(And when he learns something of Our Ayat, he makes them a jest.) if he
learns anything from the Qur'an, he disbelieves in it and takes it as the
subject of jest and ridicule,
[أُوْلَـئِكَ لَهُمْ
عَذَابٌ مُّهِينٌ]
(For such there will be a humiliating torment.) as recompense for ridiculing
the Qur'an and jesting about it. In the Sahih, Muslim recorded from `Abdullah
bin `Umar that the Messenger of Allah prohibited traveling with the Qur'an to
enemy lands for fear that the Qur'an might be desecrated by the enemy. Allah
explained the type of torment that these people earn on the Day of Return;
[مِّن وَرَآئِهِمْ
جَهَنَّمُ]
(In front of them there is Hell.) meaning, all those who have these evil
characteristics will end up in Hellfire on the Day of Resurrection,
[وَلاَ يُغْنِى
عَنْهُم مَّا كَسَبُواْ شَيْئاً]
(And that which they have earned will be of no profit to them, ) their wealth
and children will not avail them,
[وَلاَ مَا
اتَّخَذُواْ مِن دُونِ اللَّهِ أَوْلِيَآءَ]
(nor those whom they have taken as protecting friends besides Allah.) nor
will the false gods that they worshipped besides Allah benefit them in the
least,
[وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ
عظِيمٌ]
(And theirs will be a great torment.) Allah the Exalted said,
[هَـذَا
هُدًى]
(This is Huda (guidance).) in reference to the Qur'an,
[وَالَّذِينَ
كَفَرُواْ بِـَايَـتِ رَبِّهِمْ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ مِّن رِّجْزٍ أَلِيمٌ]
(And those who disbelieve in the Ayat of their Lord, for them there is a
painful torment of Rijz.) that is agonizing and severe. Allah knows best.
[اللَّهُ الَّذِى
سَخَّرَ لَكُمُ الْبَحْرَ لِتَجْرِىَ الْفُلْكُ فِيهِ بِأَمْرِهِ وَلِتَبْتَغُواْ
مِن فَضْلِهِ وَلَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُونَ - وَسَخَّرَ لَكُمْ مَّا فِى السَّمَـوَتِ
وَمَا فِى الاٌّرْضِ جَمِيعاً مِّنْهُ إِنَّ فِى ذَلِكَ لاّيَـتٍ لِّقَوْمٍ
يَتَفَكَّرُونَ - قُل لِّلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ يَغْفِرُواْ لِلَّذِينَ لاَ يَرْجُونَ
أَيَّامَ اللَّهِ لِيَجْزِىَ قَوْماً بِمَا كَانُواْ يَكْسِبُونَ - مَنْ عَمِلَ
صَـلِحاً فَلِنَفْسِهِ وَمَنْ أَسَآءَ فَعَلَيْهَا ثُمَّ إِلَى رَبِّكُمْ
تُرْجَعُونَ ]
(12. Allah, it is He Who has subjected to you the sea, that ships may sail
through it by His command, and that you may seek of His bounty, and that you may
be thankful.) (13. And has subjected to you all that is in the heavens and all
that is on the earth; it is all (as a favor and kindness) from Him. Verily, in
it are signs for a people who think deeply.) (14. Say to the believers to
forgive those who hope not for the Days of Allah, that He may recompense people,
according to what they have earned.) (15. Whosoever does a good deed, it is for
himself, and whosoever does evil, it is against (himself). Then to your Lord you
will be made to return.)
