[40].Surah Al Mumin (The Believer) also known as Surah Ghafir [The Forgiver]
Ayat 5. The people of Nuh AS (Noah) and the confederates after them denied (their Messengers) before these, and every (disbelieving) nation plotted against their Messenger to seize him, and disputed by means of falsehood to refute therewith the truth. So, I seized them (with punishment), and how (terrible) was My punishment!
Ayat 6. Thus has the Word of your Lord been justified against those who disbelieved, that they will be the dwellers of the Fire.
Tafseer of Surah Al Mumin (The Believer) Ayat 5 and 6. But (there were people) before them, who denied (the Signs),- the People of Noah, and the Confederates (of Evil) after them; and every People plotted against their prophet, to seize him, and disputed by means of vanities, therewith to condemn the Truth; but it was I that seized them! And how (terrible) was My Requital! Cf. 38:11-13. All the hosts of wickedness collected together from history will have no power against Allah’s Truth, or the Messenger of that Truth, or Allah’s Holy Plan for all His Creation. Whenever a great or vital Truth is proclaimed and renewed, there are always shallow minds that are ready to dispute about it! And what petty and vain arguments they advance! They think they can discredit or condemn the Truth in this way, or render “of none effect” Allah’s Plan. But they are mistaken. If they seem to succeed for a time, that is merely their trial. They may try to plan and plot against Allah’s men. But their plots will fail in the long run. They will themselves be caught in their own snares. And then, how terrible will be their Punishment! Cf. 13:32. Ayat 6. Thus was the Decree of thy Lord proved true against the Unbelievers; that truly they are Companions of the Fire! Cf. 39:71. The Decree, or Word, of Allah, by which Evil was to be judged and condemned, was proved true against these men. They are “Companions of the Fire”: in other words, they are fit to live only in the environment of Evil!.
English Translation of Hadith
Hazrat Abu Musa Al-Ashari (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ [SAWW](PBUH) said, “Read the Qur’an regularly. By the One in Whose Hand Muhammad’s ﷺ [SAWW](PBUH) soul is, it escapes from memory faster than a camel does from its tying ropes.”
[Al-Bukhari Book # 6 Chapter # 61 Hadith # 552].
Lesson: To safeguard the Qur’an means to recite it regularly, because if one fails to do so, he tends to forget it quickly. In the absence of regular recitation, one is bound to forget it more quickly than a camel breaks loose bound with. The breaking loose by the camel to liberate itself is a simile for the quick process of forgetting.
