Show Full Scripture Context (45:30-37) — 8 Verses
فَأَمَّا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَعَمِلُواْ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَٰتِ فَيُدۡخِلُهُمۡ رَبُّهُمۡ فِي رَحۡمَتِهِۦۚ ذَٰلِكَ هُوَ ٱلۡفَوۡزُ ٱلۡمُبِينُ
As for those who have believed and done righteous deeds, their Lord will cause them to enter into His mercy. That is the clear triumph!
وَأَمَّا ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوٓاْ أَفَلَمۡ تَكُنۡ ءَايَٰتِي تُتۡلَىٰ عَلَيۡكُمۡ فَٱسۡتَكۡبَرۡتُمۡ وَكُنتُمۡ قَوۡمٗا مُّجۡرِمِينَ
But as for those who have disbelieved: ‘Were My signs not recited to you? Yet you became arrogant and were a sinful people.
وَإِذَا قِيلَ إِنَّ وَعۡدَ ٱللَّهِ حَقّٞ وَٱلسَّاعَةُ لَا رَيۡبَ فِيهَا قُلۡتُم مَّا نَدۡرِي مَا ٱلسَّاعَةُ إِن نَّظُنُّ إِلَّا ظَنّٗا وَمَا نَحۡنُ بِمُسۡتَيۡقِنِينَ
And when it was said, “Surely the promise of God is true, and the Hour – (there is) no doubt about it,” you said, “We do not know what the Hour is. We think (it is) only conjecture, and we are not certain.”’
وَبَدَا لَهُمۡ سَيِّـَٔاتُ مَا عَمِلُواْ وَحَاقَ بِهِم مَّا كَانُواْ بِهِۦ يَسۡتَهۡزِءُونَ
The evils of what they have done will become apparent to them, and what they were mocking will overwhelm them.
وَقِيلَ ٱلۡيَوۡمَ نَنسَىٰكُمۡ كَمَا نَسِيتُمۡ لِقَآءَ يَوۡمِكُمۡ هَٰذَا وَمَأۡوَىٰكُمُ ٱلنَّارُ وَمَا لَكُم مِّن نَّـٰصِرِينَ
And it will be said, ‘Today We forget you, as you forgot the meeting of this Day of yours. Your refuge is the Fire, and you have no helpers.
ذَٰلِكُم بِأَنَّكُمُ ٱتَّخَذۡتُمۡ ءَايَٰتِ ٱللَّهِ هُزُوٗا وَغَرَّتۡكُمُ ٱلۡحَيَوٰةُ ٱلدُّنۡيَاۚ فَٱلۡيَوۡمَ لَا يُخۡرَجُونَ مِنۡهَا وَلَا هُمۡ يُسۡتَعۡتَبُونَ
That is because you took the signs of God in mockery, and this present life deluded you.’ So today they will not be brought forth from it, nor will they be allowed to make amends.
فَلِلَّهِ ٱلۡحَمۡدُ رَبِّ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَرَبِّ ٱلۡأَرۡضِ رَبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ
Praise (be) to God, Lord of the heavens and Lord of the earth, Lord of the worlds!
وَلَهُ ٱلۡكِبۡرِيَآءُ فِي ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِۖ وَهُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلۡحَكِيمُ
To Him (belongs) the greatness in the heavens and the earth. He is the Mighty, the Wise.
Allah states to us His judgement in His creation on the Day of Resurrection,
Those whose hearts believed and their limbs performed good deeds, in sincerity to Allah and conforming with Islamic legislation;
{their Lord will admit them to His mercy.} and that is Paradise.
In the Sahih, Allah said to Paradise;
""You are My mercy, with which I grant mercy to whom I will,""
{and will completely encircle them.} from all directions,
{that which they used to mock at} of the coming torment and punishment,
We will treat you as if We have forgotten you, casting you in the fire of Jahannam,'
'and did not work for it because you did not believe in its coming,'
In the Sahih, it is reported that Allah the Exalted will ask some of His servants on the Day of Resurrection,
""Have I not given you a spouse, honored you and subjected the camels and horses to you? Have I not allowed you to be a chief and a master?" The servant will say in answer, "Yes, O Lord!" Allah will say, "Did you think that you would ever meet Me?" He will say, "No." Allah the Exalted will say, "then this Day, I will forget you as you forgot Allah"
the Exalted said,
'We gave you this punishment as retribution because you mocked Allah's proofs that He sent to you, and made them the subject of jokes and jest,'
{and the life of the world deceived you .} 'this life fooled you and you were seduced by to it, thus becoming among the ultimate losers,'
{So this Day, they shall not be taken out from there}, from Hellfire,
{nor shall they be returned to the worldly life.} no apologies shall be sought from them, but they will be punished without limit or delay, just as a group of the believers will enter Paradise without limit or delay.
After Allah mentioned His judgement for the believers and the disbelievers, He said,
He is their Owner and the Owner of all that is in and on them, and surely,
{and the Lord of all that exists.} Allah said next,
meaning, the kingship, according to Mujahid. This Ayah means, Allah is the Almighty, Worthy of all praise; everything and everyone is subservient and in complete need of and dependent upon Him. In an authentic Hadith, the Prophet said,
"Allah the Exalted said, "Glory is My robe and pride is My garment; whoever rivals Me for either of them, I will make him reside in My Fire/"" Muslim collected a similar Hadith .
Allah said,
{and He is the Al-'Aziz,} Who is never resisted or rivaled,
{Al-Hakim} all wise in His statements, actions, legislation and the decree that He appoints; all glory and praise are due to Him, none has the right to be worshipped but He, Alone.
This is the end of the Tafsir of Surat Al-Jathiyah. All praise and thanks are due to Allah alone.
