Allah states that those who defy Him and His Messenger and contradict His
commandments,
[كُبِتُواْ كَمَا كُبِتَ
الَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِمْ]
(will be disgraced as those before them were disgraced) meaning, they will be
humiliated, cursed and disgraced, just as what happened to their like were
before them,
[وَقَدْ أَنزَلْنَآ
ءَايَـتٍ بَيِّنَـتٍ]
(And We have sent down clear Ayat.) meaning, none contradicts or opposes them,
except a disbeliever, rebellious, sinner,
[وَلِلْكَـفِرِينَ
عَذَابٌ مُّهِينٌ]
(And for the disbelievers is a disgraceful torment) meaning, as just recompense
for their arrogant refusal to follow, obey and submit to the religion of Allah.
Allah the Exalted said,
[يَوْمَ يَبْعَثُهُمُ
اللَّهِ جَمِيعاً]
(On the Day when Allah will resurrect them all together) referring to the Day of
Resurrection when He will gather the early and the latter generations in one
area,
[فَيُنَبِّئُهُمْ بِمَا
عَمِلُواْ]
(and inform them of what they did.) He will tell them all that they did in
detail, whether good or evil,
[أَحْصَـهُ اللَّهُ
وَنَسُوهُ]
(Allah has kept account of it, while they have forgotten it.) meaning, Allah
recorded and kept all these actions, even though they have forgotten what they
did,
[وَاللَّهُ عَلَى كُلِّ
شَىْءٍ شَهِيدٌ]
(And Allah is Witness over all things.) meaning, nothing escapes His knowledge,
and no matter is hidden from Him or escapes His complete observation.
