Transliteration:( Wa qaalooo in hiya illaa hayaatunad dunyaa wa maa nahnu bimab'ooseen )
55. The present-day polytheists who acknowledge and accept reincarnation too believe in the concept of reward and punishment but say that this will take place in this world e.g the criminal after death will come back to this world in the form of a dog, or cat, etc and receive their reward and punishment in this world.Â
They do not believe in the Hereafter or in the Day of Judgement. This type of belief is wrong by inference and intellect, because if they do not feel hardship when in the form of a dog or cat then what type of punishment would this be? Also, no earthly life is complete with ease or hardship. The punishment of Allah Almighty must be bereft of ease and His reward must be free of hardship.
