رَّبِّ اَعُوۡذُ بِکَ مِنۡ ھَمَزٰتِ الشَّیٰطِیۡنِ ۙ وَ اَعُوۡذُ بِکَ رَبِّ اَنۡ یَّحۡضُرُوۡن ؕ۔
بِسۡمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحۡمٰنِ الرَّحِيۡمِۙ۔
Kafir or Kufr.
Those who worship idols of stone or metal made with their own hands, or living and dead people, or any living or dead thing in the universe. Or they associate these partners with that Creator (One God) who created the earth and the sky and all the creatures in it. Such people are called Unbelievers (Kafir / Mushrik in Arabic). And this action is called Unbelieve (kufr / Shirk). God and His angels curse these people. Unbelievers who Unbelieve in one God will have no value in God’s judgment day.
Devil is involved in every action of a disbeliever. Satan makes the actions of the unbelievers attractive. And gives him hope. And scares. An unbeliever starts worshiping everything. What does he fear or hope for? Even if they are lower and inferior to humans. Like snakes, scorpions, cats, rats, lions, elephants, monkeys, air, water, fire, earth, mountains, moon, sun, birds, living and dead people and their signs, angels, God’s prophets and saints, etc. Even! Deities are available for fulfillment of sexual desires.
Kufr is the injustice that the unbeliever does to himself. Allah Almighty says that He can forgive every sin, but not Kufr at all. The good deeds of the unbelievers too are not rewarded by God. Because they do not follow God’s commands and Sunnah of God (Sunnatullah). Therefore, disbelievers do not have the right to receiveGod’s mercy and help.
Example to bring understanding to unbelievers.
The God narrates some examples to explain to the disbelievers. If you think about them, make milk milk, and water water. But these parables affect only those who meditate, and thinks. Otherwise, whose hearts are hard. even if God sends down the inscription from the sky in the hands of those even then they will not believe.
ضَرَبَ لَكُمۡ مَّثَلًا مِّنۡ اَنۡفُسِكُمۡؕ هَلْ لَّكُمۡ مِّنۡ مَّا مَلَـكَتۡ اَيۡمَانُكُمۡ مِّنۡ شُرَكَآءَ فِىۡ مَا رَزَقۡنٰكُمۡ فَاَنۡتُمۡ فِيۡهِ سَوَآءٌ تَخَافُوۡنَهُمۡ كَخِيۡفَتِكُمۡ اَنۡفُسَكُمۡؕ كَذٰلِكَ نُفَصِّلُ الۡاٰيٰتِ لِقَوۡمٍ يَّعۡقِلُوۡنَ ﴿۲۸﴾۔
God gives you an example from your own midst! Do your right hands (i.e. your slaves or friends working with you) have equal shares in the livelihood We have given you? And do you fear them as you fear your family? We likewise explain Our verses in detail for the wise. (28).
يٰۤـاَيُّهَا النَّاسُ ضُرِبَ مَثَلٌ فَاسۡتَمِعُوۡا لَهٗ ؕ اِنَّ الَّذِيۡنَ تَدۡعُوۡنَ مِنۡ دُوۡنِ اللّٰهِ لَنۡ يَّخۡلُقُوۡا ذُبَابًا وَّلَوِ اجۡتَمَعُوۡا لَهٗ ؕ وَاِنۡ يَّسۡلُبۡهُمُ الذُّبَابُ شَيۡــًٔـا لَّا يَسۡتَـنۡـقِذُوۡهُ مِنۡهُ ؕ ضَعُفَ الطَّالِبُ وَالۡمَطۡلُوۡبُ ﴿۷۳﴾ مَا قَدَرُوا اللّٰهَ حَقَّ قَدۡرِهٖؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَقَوِىٌّ عَزِيۡزٌ ﴿۷۴﴾۔
[Q-22:73-74]
O people, listen carefully to an example! Those whom you call on besides Allah, they cannot create even a single fly, even if they all gather together, and if a fly runs away from them with something (i.e. its food). Then these cannot free that thing from the fly. So, those who ask are also weak and those from whom are asked are also weak. (734) They have not appreciated God He deserves. Truly, God is powerfull and Mighty.
ضَرَبَ اللّٰهُ مَثَلًا رَّجُلًا فِيۡهِ شُرَكَآءُ مُتَشٰكِسُوۡنَ وَرَجُلًا سَلَمًا لِّرَجُلٍ ؕ هَلۡ يَسۡتَوِيٰنِ مَثَلًا ؕ اَلۡحَمۡدُ لِلّٰهِ ۚ بَلۡ اَكۡثَرُهُمۡ لَا يَعۡلَمُوۡنَ ﴿۲۹﴾۔
[Q-39:29]
God then explains with a parable. A slave man with several conflicting owners. And a slave man who has only one master. Can they both be equal? (No) All praise is for Allah, but often these people do not know. (29)
وَالَّذِيۡنَ يَدۡعُوۡنَ مِنۡ دُوۡنِ اللّٰهِ لَا يَخۡلُقُوۡنَ شَيۡــًٔا وَّهُمۡ يُخۡلَقُوۡنَؕ ﴿۲۰﴾ اَمۡوَاتٌ غَيۡرُ اَحۡيَآءٍ ۚ وَمَا يَشۡعُرُوۡنَ اَيَّانَ يُبۡعَثُوۡنَ ﴿۲۱﴾ اِلٰهُكُمۡ اِلٰهٌ وَّاحِدٌ ۚ ﴿۲۲﴾۔
[Q-16:20-22]
And those whom they invoke besides God, they do not create anything. Rather, they are self-created. (20) They are not alive but dead. And they do not know when they will be resurrected. (21) Your God is one God. (22)
يَدۡعُوۡا مِنۡ دُوۡنِ اللّٰهِ مَا لَا يَضُرُّهٗ وَمَا لَا يَنۡفَعُهٗ ؕ ذٰ لِكَ هُوَ الضَّلٰلُ الۡبَعِيۡدُ ۚ ﴿۱۲﴾ يَدۡعُوۡا لَمَنۡ ضَرُّهٗۤ اَقۡرَبُ مِنۡ نَّـفۡعِهٖؕ لَبِئۡسَ الۡمَوۡلٰى وَلَبِئۡسَ الۡعَشِيۡرُ ﴿۱۳﴾۔
[Q-22:12-13]
They call upon those besides God. Who can neither harm nor benefit them. This is a delusion of the highest order. (12) In calling upon such, there is nearer harm than good, both such a patron and such a companion are evil. (13)
قُلۡ اَ تَعۡبُدُوۡنَ مِنۡ دُوۡنِ اللّٰهِ مَا لَا يَمۡلِكُ لَـكُمۡ ضَرًّا وَّلَا نَفۡعًا ؕ وَاللّٰهُ هُوَ السَّمِيۡعُ الۡعَلِيۡمُ ﴿۷۶﴾۔
[Q-05:76]
Say, do you worship anything other than God? That can neither harm nor benefit you. And God is the Hearer, the Knower.
Existence of Iblis is examination of people.
The God declared Iblis cursed So that examine humans and jinn. And made him a means of trial until the Day of Resurrection, so that God could distinguish between the believers and the disbelievers. This incident took place in Alam-Arwah. When Satan refused to prostrate to Adam. Then Satan asked for the right on man, which God accepted for him. Because Allah wanted to test good and bad people. And because Satan considered man to be a worse creature, he expressed doubt before God that. . ….
وَقَالَ لَاَ تَّخِذَنَّ مِنۡ عِبَادِكَ نَصِيۡبًا مَّفۡرُوۡضًا ۙ ﴿۱۱۸﴾ وَّلَاُضِلَّـنَّهُمۡ وَلَاُمَنِّيَنَّهُمۡ وَلَاٰمُرَنَّهُمۡ فَلَيُبَـتِّكُنَّ اٰذَانَ الۡاَنۡعَامِ وَلَاٰمُرَنَّهُمۡ فَلَيُغَيِّرُنَّ خَلۡقَ اللّٰهِؕ وَمَنۡ يَّتَّخِذِ الشَّيۡطٰنَ وَلِيًّا مِّنۡ دُوۡنِ اللّٰهِ فَقَدۡ خَسِرَ خُسۡرَانًا مُّبِيۡنًا ؕ ﴿۱۱۹﴾ يَعِدُهُمۡ وَيُمَنِّيۡهِمۡ ؕ وَمَا يَعِدُهُمُ الشَّيۡـطٰنُ اِلَّا غُرُوۡرًا ﴿۱۲۰﴾ اُولٰٓٮِٕكَ مَاۡوٰٮهُمۡ جَهَـنَّمُ﯀ وَلَا يَجِدُوۡنَ عَنۡهَا مَحِيۡصًا ﴿۱۲۱﴾۔
[Q-04:117-121]
And he (Devil) had said: I will take a compulsory share from your servants. (118). And even if I don’t lead them astray, and I don’t give them hopes, and even if I don’t command them, even then they (humans) will surely tear off the ears of the cattle. And even if I do not command them, even then they (humans) will certainly change the creation of Allah. And the one who took Shaitan as a friend besides Allah, he was definitely in a clear loss. (119) He makes promises, and gives hope, and Devil’s promises are mere deception. (120) The abode of such people is hell. And they will not be saved from this hell. (121).
وَلَقَدۡ صَدَّقَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ اِبۡلِيۡسُ ظَنَّهٗ فَاتَّبَعُوۡهُ اِلَّا فَرِيۡقًا مِّنَ الۡمُؤۡمِنِيۡنَ ﴿۲۰﴾ وَمَا كَانَ لَهٗ عَلَيۡهِمۡ مِّنۡ سُلۡطٰنٍ اِلَّا لِنَعۡلَمَ مَنۡ يُّـؤۡمِنُ بِالۡاٰخِرَةِ مِمَّنۡ هُوَ مِنۡهَا فِىۡ شَكٍّ ؕ وَ رَبُّكَ عَلٰى كُلِّ شَىۡءٍ حَفِيۡظٌ ﴿۲۱﴾۔
[Q-34:20-21]
Indeed, Iblis’s (Devil) suspicion about them was right, so they followed him, except for a group of believers. (20) And He had no authority over them except that we may know who believes in the Hereafter. and who is in doubt? and your Lord is Sustainer over all things. (21)
Those who fail in the test are those who do not believe in the Hereafter. This is the test that will make the believers and the disbelievers stand in separate rows on the Day of Resurrection due to their deeds.
وَمَنۡ يَّعۡشُ عَنۡ ذِكۡرِ الرَّحۡمٰنِ نُقَيِّضۡ لَهٗ شَيۡطٰنًا فَهُوَ لَهٗ قَرِيۡنٌ ﴿۳۶﴾ وَاِنَّهُمۡ لَيَصُدُّوۡنَهُمۡ عَنِ السَّبِيۡلِ وَيَحۡسَبُوۡنَ اَنَّهُمۡ مُّهۡتَدُوۡنَ ﴿۳۷﴾۔
[Q-43:36-37]
And whoever avoids the mention of the Merciful God, we will appoint a devil over him. So, he will be his companion. (364) And indeed they (Devil) lead them astray from the path. And they consider themselves guided. (37)
وَالَّذِيۡنَ كَفَرُوۡۤا اَوۡلِيٰٓـــُٔهُمُ الطَّاغُوۡتُۙ يُخۡرِجُوۡنَهُمۡ مِّنَ النُّوۡرِ اِلَى الظُّلُمٰتِؕ اُولٰٓٮِٕكَ اَصۡحٰبُ النَّارِۚ هُمۡ فِيۡهَا خٰلِدُوۡنَ ﴿۲۵۷﴾۔
[Q-02:257]
And as for those who disbelieved, their guardians are unjust, they take them out of the light and lead them to darkness. These people are the people of hell who will live forever in the fire. (257).
وَقَيَّضۡنَا لَهُمۡ قُرَنَآءَ فَزَيَّنُوۡا لَهُمۡ مَّا بَيۡنَ اَيۡدِيۡهِمۡ وَمَا خَلۡفَهُمۡ وَحَقَّ عَلَيۡهِمُ الۡقَوۡلُ فِىۡۤ اُمَمٍ قَدۡ خَلَتۡ مِنۡ قَبۡلِهِمۡ مِّنَ الۡجِنِّ وَالۡاِنۡسِۚ اِنَّهُمۡ كَانُوۡا خٰسِرِيۡنَ ﴿۲۵﴾۔
[Q-41:25]
And We appointed over them devil companions, and they adorned for them their past and previous evil deeds, and upon them came the same decree of truth, which came upon the first (Unbelievers) nations of men and jinn like them. was Indeed, they will be in loss. (25).
God’s warning to Kafir (unbelievers).
Polytheists also believe that there was only one power in the beginning. Who created this universe. He created the earth, moon, sun, stars, planets and all other creatures. Now the question arises that the one who created everything is the creator or the created creature is the creator? Is this not a topic worth considering? The God presents some examples to explain to the disbelievers. If they consider.
قُلِ ادۡعُوا الَّذِيۡنَ زَعَمۡتُمۡ مِّنۡ دُوۡنِ اللّٰهِۚ لَا يَمۡلِكُوۡنَ مِثۡقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ فِى السَّمٰوٰتِ وَلَا فِى الۡاَرۡضِ وَمَا لَهُمۡ فِيۡهِمَا مِنۡ شِرۡكٍ وَّمَا لَهٗ مِنۡهُمۡ مِّنۡ ظَهِيۡرٍ ﴿۲۲﴾۔
[Q-34:22]
Say: Call upon those whom you have believed to be besides God. They do not own even an iota of anything in the heavens and the earth. And they have no share in them. And none of them is God’s helper. (22).
وَقَالَ اللّٰهُ لَا تَـتَّخِذُوۡۤا اِلٰهَيۡنِ اثۡنَيۡنِۚ اِنَّمَا هُوَ اِلٰـهٌ وَّاحِدٌ ۚ فَاِيَّاىَ فَارۡهَبُوۡنِ ﴿۵۱﴾ وَلَهٗ مَا فِى السَّمٰوٰتِ وَ الۡاَرۡضِ وَلَهُ الدِّيۡنُ وَاصِبًا ؕ اَفَغَيۡرَ اللّٰهِ تَـتَّـقُوۡنَ ﴿۵۲﴾۔
[Q-16:51-52]
And God said, do not make two or two gods (i.e. do not make more than one god), for God is one. So, fear me (51). And all that is in the heavens and the earth belongs to Him, and His religion is established. Will you still be afraid of other than Allah? (52).
وَمِنۡ اٰيٰتِهِ الَّيۡلُ وَالنَّهَارُ وَالشَّمۡسُ وَالۡقَمَرُؕ لَا تَسۡجُدُوۡا لِلشَّمۡسِ وَلَا لِلۡقَمَرِ وَاسۡجُدُوۡا لِلّٰهِ الَّذِىۡ خَلَقَهُنَّ اِنۡ كُنۡتُمۡ اِيَّاهُ تَعۡبُدُوۡنَ ﴿۳۷﴾۔
[Q-41:37]
And among His signs are the night and the day and the sun and the moon, do not worship the sun and the moon, but worship this God who created them. If you want to worship the real Creator. (37)
اَمِ اتَّخَذُوۡۤا اٰلِهَةً مِّنَ الۡاَرۡضِ هُمۡ يُنۡشِرُوۡنَ ﴿۲۱﴾ لَوۡ كَانَ فِيۡهِمَاۤ اٰلِهَةٌ اِلَّا اللّٰهُ لَـفَسَدَتَاۚ فَسُبۡحٰنَ اللّٰهِ رَبِّ الۡعَرۡشِ عَمَّا يَصِفُوۡنَ ﴿۲۲﴾۔
[Q-21:21-22]
Or they have made gods from the earth and set them up. (21) If there were other gods besides Allah, they would have destroyed the earth and the sky (i.e. that every god fights to establish itself). So, the Lord of the Throne, God is pure from what these people describe. (22).
وَاتَّخَذُوۡا مِنۡ دُوۡنِهٖۤ اٰلِهَةً لَّا يَخۡلُقُوۡنَ شَيۡـًٔـا وَّهُمۡ يُخۡلَقُوۡنَ وَلَا يَمۡلِكُوۡنَ لِاَنۡفُسِهِمۡ ضَرًّا وَّلَا نَفۡعًا وَّلَا يَمۡلِكُوۡنَ مَوۡتًا وَّلَا حَيٰوةً وَّلَا نُشُوۡرًا ﴿۳﴾۔
[Q-25:03]
And they have made other gods besides one God, while their gods cannot create anything, but they themselves are created. And they do not have the power of harm or benefit even for themselves. And they do not have authority over death, nor over life, and nor upon being resurrected on the Day of Resurrection. (3)
اَلشَّيۡطٰنُ يَعِدُكُمُ الۡـفَقۡرَ وَيَاۡمُرُكُمۡ بِالۡفَحۡشَآءِ ۚ وَاللّٰهُ يَعِدُكُمۡ مَّغۡفِرَةً مِّنۡهُ وَفَضۡلًا ؕ وَاللّٰهُ وَاسِعٌ عَلِيۡمٌۚ ۙ﴿۲۶۸﴾۔
[Q-02:268]
Satan threatens you with poverty, and commands you to be immoral. And God promises you His forgiveness and grace. And Allah is Vast, All-Knowing. (268).
No salvation for the Kafir (Unbelievers).
A simple example! If a son does not call his father father, but calls others his father, whose worth is not even that of a gnat in front of his father. He can erase them whenever he wants. Or create countless like them. So, can that father forgive that unworthy son? No!
اِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَا يَغۡفِرُ اَنۡ يُّشۡرَكَ بِهٖ وَيَغۡفِرُ مَا دُوۡنَ ذٰ لِكَ لِمَنۡ يَّشَآءُ ۚ وَمَنۡ يُّشۡرِكۡ بِاللّٰهِ فَقَدِ افۡتَـرٰۤى اِثۡمًا عَظِيۡمًا ﴿۴۸﴾۔
[Q-04:48, 116]
Indeed, Allah does not forgive anyone who associates anything with Him, except this He will forgive whom He wills. And whoever associates anything with God. Indeed, committed a great sin. (48).
وَاللّٰهُ لَا يُحِبُّ كُلَّ كَفَّارٍ اَثِيۡمٍ ﴿۲۷۶﴾۔
[Q-02:276]
And God does not like disbelieving (Kafir) sinners. (276).
مَاۤ اُرِيۡدُ مِنۡهُمۡ مِّنۡ رِّزۡقٍ وَّمَاۤ اُرِيۡدُ اَنۡ يُّطۡعِمُوۡنِ ﴿۵۷﴾ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ هُوَ الرَّزَّاقُ ذُو الۡقُوَّةِ الۡمَتِيۡنُ ﴿۵۸﴾۔
[Q-51:57-58]
Allah says I neither want sustenance from them nor do I want them to feed me. Indeed, Allah is the Sustainer and the Owner of all powers. (58).
Good deeds of the Unbelievers will be wasted.
Many unbelievers will be found saying this. That the greatest religion is humanity. Some say that Nature is everything. A large section of Christians has imagined Jesus, mother Mary and God as one family. According to Hindu religion, there are 33 types or 33 crore gods and goddesses, in addition to this, in many religions moon, sun, stars, idols and dargahs etc. are the source of Shirk.
O people, you eat bread and not grass. Just think! Can there be so many Gods? Not without clause. There is only one true God. Who created all the earth and the sky and all the creatures in them. And that which is not seen, because our eyes are not able to see Him, while He can see all eyes. Allah Almighty says that if there were more than one God in the universe. So, they fight among themselves to show their superiority, and destroy the earth and the sky.
So, it’s obvious that! When a disbeliever does a good deed, his good deeds are directed to the whom he worships. In such a case, the image of the real God is not in his heart and mind. In the end, all those good deeds are wasted.
اَمِ اتَّخَذُوۡۤا اٰلِهَةً مِّنَ الۡاَرۡضِ هُمۡ يُنۡشِرُوۡنَ ﴿۲۱﴾ لَوۡ كَانَ فِيۡهِمَاۤ اٰلِهَةٌ اِلَّا اللّٰهُ لَـفَسَدَتَاۚ فَسُبۡحٰنَ اللّٰهِ رَبِّ الۡعَرۡشِ عَمَّا يَصِفُوۡنَ ﴿۲۲﴾۔
[Q-21:21-22]
Or they have made gods from the earth and set them up. (21) If there were gods besides God, they would have destroyed the earth and the sky (that is, each god would have fought to establish itself). So, the Lord of the Throne is God. And He is purer than what these people describe. (22).
اَلَّذِيۡنَ كَفَرُوۡا وَصَدُّوۡا عَنۡ سَبِيۡلِ اللّٰهِ اَضَلَّ اَعۡمَالَهُمۡ ﴿۱﴾ ذٰلِكَ بِاَنَّ الَّذِيۡنَ كَفَرُوۡا اتَّبَعُوا الۡبَاطِلَؕ ﴿۳﴾۔
[Q-47:01&03]
Those who disbelieved and prevented (other people) from the path of God. God destroyed their deeds. (1) This is because the disbelievers (Kafir) followed falsehood. (3)
وَالَّذِيۡنَ كَفَرُوۡا فَتَعۡسًا لَّهُمۡ وَاَضَلَّ اَعۡمَالَهُمۡ ﴿۸﴾ ذٰلِكَ بِاَنَّهُمۡ كَرِهُوۡا مَاۤ اَنۡزَلَ اللّٰهُ فَاَحۡبَطَ اَعۡمَالَهُمۡ ﴿۹﴾۔
[Q-47:8-9]
And as for those who disbelieved, then for them is calamity, and their deeds are wasted (8) because they disapproved of these verses. Which revealed by God. So, He destroyed their deeds. (9)
ذٰلِكَ بِاَنَّهُمُ اتَّبَعُوۡا مَاۤ اَسۡخَطَ اللّٰهَ وَكَرِهُوۡا رِضۡوَانَهٗ فَاَحۡبَطَ اَعۡمَالَهُمۡ ﴿۲۸﴾۔
[Q-47:28]
This is because they followed that which displeases God. And disliked the pleasure of God. So, he destroyed their deeds. (28)
وَالَّذِيۡنَ كَفَرُوۡۤا اَعۡمَالُهُمۡ كَسَرَابٍۢ بِقِيۡعَةٍ يَّحۡسَبُهُ الظَّمۡاٰنُ مَآءً ؕ حَتّٰۤى اِذَا جَآءَهٗ لَمۡ يَجِدۡهُ شَيۡــًٔـا وَّ وَجَدَ اللّٰهَ عِنۡدَهٗ فَوَفّٰٮهُ حِسَابَهٗ ؕ وَاللّٰهُ سَرِيۡعُ الۡحِسَابِ ۙ ﴿۳۹﴾۔
[Q-24:39]
The deeds of those who disbelieve are like mirages in the desert, Due to which the thirsty person gets the illusion of water. When he comes to him, he founds nothing, but he found God before him (to take account). So, God paid his account. And God will take account soon. (39)
