[40].Surah Al Mumin (The Believer) also known as Surah Ghafir [The Forgiver]
Ayat 84. So, when they saw Our punishment, they said: “We believe in Allah Alone and reject (all) that we used to associate with Him as (His) partners.
Ayat 85. Then their Faith (in Islamic Monotheism) could not avail them when they saw Our punishment. (Like) this has been the way of Allah in dealing with His slaves. And there the disbelievers lost utterly (when Our Torment covered them).
Tafseer of Surah Al Mumin (The Believer) 84. But when they saw Our Punishment, they said: “We believe in Allah,- the one Allah – and we reject the partners we used to join with Him.” Ayat 85. But their professing the Faith when they (actually) saw Our Punishment was not going to profit them. (Such has been) Allah’s Way of dealing with His Servants (from the most ancient times). And even thus did the Rejecters of Allah perish (utterly)! Again, and again they were given chances, and again and again they rejected them. When it was too late, and in fact when it had no meaning, they offered to profess Faith. That was of no use. Allah does not accept unmeaning things of that kind. He wants to train and purify our will. For their disobedience and rebellion, they perished utterly.
*These are the last Ayats of the 40th Surah of Al-Quran Surah Mumin; this Surah contains 85 Ayats, Insha Allah from tomorrow the 41st Surah of Al-Quran Surah Fussilat will start..
English Translation of Hadith
Hazrat Jabir (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ [SAWW](PBUH) said, “Everyone will be raised in the condition in which he dies”.
[Muslim Book 40, Chapter 19, Hadith # 6878]
Lesson : This Hadith signifies that if a person dies performing good deeds, he will have a good end; and the one who dies in misdeeds, he will come to a bad end. It is, therefore, necessary that one should always avoid disobedience of Divine injunctions, especially in old age and illness because one may fall in the clutches of death at any time.
