Chapter :54 Section: The Destination of the Criminals

Back to Chapter: 54 Previous Next

Allah the Exalted states that the criminals are misguided away from the truth and engulfed in confusion, because of the doubts and uncertainty they are in. This description befits every disbeliever and innovator of all types and forms of sects. Allah the Exalted said,

[يَوْمَ يُسْحَبُونَ فِى النَّارِ عَلَى وُجُوهِهِمْ]

(The Day they will be dragged on their faces into the Fire), meaning, just as they were consumed in doubt, suspicion and hesitation, they ended up in the Fire. And just as they were misguided, they will end up being dragged on their faces, unaware of where they will be taken. They will be admonished and criticized,

[ذُوقُواْ مَسَّ سَقَرَ]

("Taste you the touch of Hell!'')
