Back to Chapter: 39 Previous Next

Allah tells us that on the Day of Resurrection, some faces will be blackened and some will be whitened. The faces of those who followed splits and divisions will be blackened, and the faces of Ahlus-Sunnah wal-Jama`ah will be whitened. Allah says here:

[وَيَوْمَ الْقِيَـمَةِ تَرَى الَّذِينَ كَذَبُواْ عَلَى اللَّهِ]

(And on the Day of Resurrection you will see those who lied against Allah) meaning, by their claims that He had partners or offspring.

[وُجُوهُهُم مُّسْوَدَّةٌ]

(their faces will be black.) means, because of their lies and fabrications.

[أَلَيْسَ فِى جَهَنَّمَ مَثْوًى لِّلْمُتَكَبِّرِينَ]

(Is there not in Hell an abode for the arrogant) means, is not Hell sufficient for them as a prison and humiliating final destination, because of their stubborn pride, arrogance and refusal to follow the truth

[وَيُنَجِّى اللَّهُ الَّذِينَ اتَّقَوْاْ بِمَفَازَتِهِمْ]

(And Allah will deliver those who are those who have Taqwa to their places of success.) means, because of what Allah has decreed for them of happiness and victory.

[لاَ يَمَسُّهُمُ السُّوءُ]

(Evil shall touch them not, ) means, on the Day of Resurrection.

[وَلاَ هُمْ يَحْزَنُونَ]

(nor shall they grieve.) means, the greater terror (of that Day) will not cause them grief, for they will be safe from all grief and removed from all evil, and they will attain all that is good.

[اللَّهُ خَـلِقُ كُـلِّ شَىْءٍ وَهُوَ عَلَى كُل شَىْءٍ وَكِيلٌ - لَّهُ مَقَالِيدُ السَّمَـوَتِ وَالاٌّرْضِ وَالَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ بِـَايَـتِ اللَّهِ أُوْلَـئِكَ هُمُ الْخَـسِرُونَ - قُلْ أَفَغَيْرَ اللَّهِ تَأْمُرُونِّى أَعْبُدُ أَيُّهَا الْجَـهِلُونَ - وَلَقَدْ أُوْحِىَ إِلَيْكَ وَإِلَى الَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِكَ لَئِنْ أَشْرَكْتَ لَيَحْبَطَنَّ عَمَلُكَ وَلَتَكُونَنَّ مِنَ الْخَـسِرِينَ - بَلِ اللَّهَ فَاعْبُدْ وَكُن مِّنَ الشَّـكِرِينَ ]

(62. Allah is the Creator of all things, and He is the Trustee over all things.) (63. To Him belong the Maqalid of the heavens and the earth. And those who disbelieve in the Ayat of Allah, such are they who will be the losers.) (64. Say: "Do you order me to worship other than Allah O you fools!'') (65. And indeed it has been revealed to you, as it was to those before you: "If you join others in worship with Allah, surely your deeds will be in vain, and you will certainly be among the losers.'') (66. Nay! But worship Allah, and be among the grateful.)
