[Taubah 9:62] They swear by Allah in your presence in order to please you; whereas Allah - and His Noble Messenger - had more right that they should have pleased Him if they had faith. [Taubah 9:63] Do they not know that for one who opposes Allah and His Noble Messenger, is the fire of hell, to remain in it forever? This is the greatest humiliation. [Taubah 9:64] The hypocrites fear for a chapter being revealed regarding them, which may disclose what is hidden in their hearts; say, “Keep mocking; Allah will certainly disclose what you fear.” [Taubah 9:65] And if you ask them, they will say, "We were just having fun and pastime"; say, "What! You mock at Allah and His verses and His Noble Messenger?" [Taubah 9:66] "Do not feign excuses, you have turned disbelievers after becoming Muslims"; if We forgive some of you *, We shall punish others because they were guilty. (* One who kept quiet and later repented.) Section 9 [Taubah 9:67] The hypocrite men and women are all the same; enjoining wrong and forbidding right, and being tight-fisted *; they have forgotten Allah, so Allah has forsaken them; indeed the hypocrites - it is they who are really disobedient. (* Not spending in Allah's cause) [Taubah 9:68] Allah has promised the hypocrite men and
hypocrite women and the disbelievers, the fire of hell in which they will
remain forever; that is sufficient for them; and Allah’s curse is upon
them; and for them is a never ending punishment. |
