Lesson

As it has been described with detail in the previous verses that after the arguing with the group of Najraan and notwithstanding to believe heartily in the truth of the Messenger of God Almighty (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him), the Christians did not believe. They used to calumniate that Allah Almighty has said a certain thing, so and so has been written in this Scripture, whereas, they used to concoct all these sayings personally at their own. Moreover, No Prophet or Messenger (peace be upon him) teaches against the commands of God Almighty. He [Prophet or Messenger (peace be upon him)] never commands to worship him. He says always, “Be of Allah”. But the Nazarene changed the commands of Allah Almighty and did not accept. They used to distinguish between the Prophets (peace be upon them), whereas Allah Almighty sent all of them by means of one path of guidance and taught them the lesson of Unity (Oneness of God).

After knowing these entire realities; even then, the Christians did not believe and used to deny. They used to sell their faith being involved in the love of wealth and property, and entangled in the worldly objects, did not use to care for the Doomsday, arrange for their end. God Almighty proclaimed that He would never show the path of guidance to such people. Moreover, as for such, their guerdon is that on them rests the curse of Allah Almighty and of angels (peace be upon them) and of men combined, they will abide therein for ever. Their doom will not be lightened, neither will they be reprieved.

Look at the Mercy of God Almighty that He gives another chance to the mankind to repent, to be ashamed on his errors and be entitled of forgiveness. But the disbelievers still do not understand, refuse to Allah Almighty, use to become fixed on it during their entire life and do not repent till the moment of death. The whole earth full of gold would not be accepted from such people if it were offered as a ransom for their soul. These are the evil-livers. They would have to see their painful doom, enjoy the severest chastisement. There will neither be any friend of them, nor helper, nor supporter and nor their any saver from Allah Almighty. Moreover, these people will be helpless and support-less. Nobody will be his or her trustworthy on the Day of Resurrection.

 

A wise and circumspect person should take warning from these circumstances and facts. He should not spoil his Hereafter adopting the way of astray people, and should not make his future disgusting. In addition, getting lesson from these matters, he should choose the path of goodness.  

There are two punishments mentioned in this verse for wrongdoers:

·       A painful doom 

 

·       They will have no helpers.

Those supports will slip away due to which they were proud. Those friends will leave them, from which they had any expectation. Blessed are those mankind who understand before time.
