Allah’s Attitude towards
People Who Are Cruel
Allah
SWT has given His views, the cruel traits of cruel men in His many decrees
before this, these traits are all against the teachings of Islam and totally
unrelated to the Islamic religion, this matter is explained by Allah SWT by
showing His attitude in facing these groups of cruel people and Allah’s threat
towards these groups, as in the following decrees :
1)
Allah SWT’s Hatred of Them
Allah
SWT’s Decree in Surah As Syuraa, verse 40, which said:
و جزؤا سيئة سيئة مثلها فمن عفا و أصلح
فأجره على الله إنه لا يحب الظالمين
Which
means: ` The recompense for any injury is an injury equal there to (in degree),
but if a person forgives and makes reconciliation, his reward is due from
Allah, for God loveth not those who do wrong.’
2)
Allah SWT will Punish Them with a Tremendously
Painful Punishment.
Allah
SWT’s decree in Surah As Syuraa, verse 42 that said:
إنما السبيل على الذين يظلمون
الناس و يبغون فى الأرض بغير الحق أولئك لهم عذاب أليم
Which
means:` The blame is only against those who oppress men with wrong doing and
insolently transgress beyond bounds through the land, defying right and
justice, for such there will be a penalty grievous.’
3)
Allah SWT Prepares for Them the Cursed Hell
Allah
SWT’s decree in Surah Al Kahfi, verse 29, which said:
إنا أعتدنا للظالمين نارا أحاط
بهم سرادقها و إن يستغيثوا يغاثوا بمآء كالمهل يشوى الوجوه بئس الشراب و سآءت
مرتفقا
Which
means: ` For the wrong doers We have prepared
a fire whose (smoke and flames) like the walls and roof of a tent, will
hem them in, if they implore relief they will be granted water like melted
brass, that will scald their faces. How dreadful the drink! How uncomfortable a
couch to recline on.’
4)
Allah SWT Makes Them Go Astray
Allah
SWT’s decree in Surah Ibrahim, verse 27, which said:
يثبت الله الذين ء امنوا بالقول الثابت
فى الحياة الدنيا و فى الأخرة و يضل الله الظالمين و يفعل الله ما يشآء
Which
means: `God will establish in strength those who believe, with the word that
stands firm, in this world and in the hereafter, but God will leave to stray
those who do wrong., God doeth what He willeth.’
5)
Allah SWT Will Not Give Them Any Benefits.
Allah
SWT’s decree in Surah Al An’aam, verse 21, which said:
و من أظلم ممن افترى على الله كذبا أو
كذب بئاياته إنه لا يفلح الظالمون
Which
means: `Who doth more wrong than he who inventeth a lie against God or rejected
His Signs ? But verily the wrong doers never shall prosper.’
And
again in Allah SWT’s decree in the same Surah, verse 135, which said:
قل يا قوم اعملوا على مكانتكم إنى عامل
فسوف تعلمون من تكون له عاقبة الدار إنه لا يفلح الظالمون
Which
means: `Say, ` Oh my people! Do whatever ye can: I will do (my part) soon will
ye know who it is whose end will be ( best ) in the hereafter, certain it is
that the wrong doers will not prosper.’
6)
Allah Condemns and Will Not Forgive
Them in the Hereafter
Allah
SWT’s decree in Surah Al Gafir,
verse 52, which said:
يوم لا ينفع الظالمين معذرتهم و
لهم اللعنة و لهم سوء الدار
Which
means:` The Day when no profit will it be to wrong doers to present their
excuses, but they will (only) have the curse and the home of misery.’
Also
with Allah SWT’s Decree in Surah Al A’raaf, verse 44, which said:
فأذن مؤذن بينهم أن لعنة الله على الظالمين
Which
means: ` A Crier shall proclaim between them:` The curse of God is on the wrong
doers’.
