وَلَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَآإِلَىٰٓ أُمَمٍ مِّن قَبْلِكَ فَأَخَذْنَٰهُم بِٱلْبَأْسَآءِ وَٱلضَّرَّآءِ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَتَضَرَّعُونَ 42
فَلَوْلَآ إِذْ جَآءَهُم بَأْسُنَا تَضَرَّعُوا۟ وَلَٰكِن قَسَتْ قُلُوبُهُمْ وَزَيَّنَ لَهُمُٱلشَّيْطَٰنُ مَا كَانُوا۟ يَعْمَلُونَ 43

42. And We
certainly sent Our Messengers unto peoples that were before Thee, and We
visited them with tribulation and adversity, in order that they might grow
humble.
43. Then why
did not, when Our disaster came on them, (repent and) humble! But their
hearts were hardened and the devil made all that they used to do same fair
unto them!

Commentary
It
was described in the previous lesson that the human being is confounded at that
time, when any affliction comes and none can help him, whereas, he would have
taken warning from small accidents and turned towards Allah Almighty immediately.
In
this lesson, the attention has been drawn towards the people of old times and
commanded that the people of present time should take a lesson by considering
thoughtfully their circumstances: It is the fixed rule to admonish the
humankind that at first, Allah Almighty
sends His Prophets and Messengers (peace be upon Them) among the people.
When
the people neither incline towards the Prophet or Messenger (peace be upon Him)
and nor listen to the Revelations, revealed upon Him (peace be upon Him), then
tribulations and adversities are sent down for them, so that they should lean
before Allah Almighty
hopelessly and grow humble, knowing His Power.
Even
hereupon, the stupidity, obstinacy and perverseness of the human beings harden
their hearts and Satan produces evil things of the world making them beautiful before
the people.
It
is commanded: O Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon Him)! We
certainly sent Our Messengers (peace be upon Them) unto peoples that were
before Thee. When the people did not obey Them fairly, then some tribulation
and adversity were revealed upon them in order that they might grow humble. But
on the contrary, their hearts were hardened and the Devil produced before them
their evil deeds as good works, and they were entangled into them being
careless entirely from Allah Almighty.
It
is known clearly from these verses that whenever people are entangled in evil
deeds and bad habits, and disobey the Messengers’ advice, then famine, plague,
storms and quakes etc. are sent down, for the purpose that they should bow
before Allah Almighty
and beg pardon of Allah Almighty.
