    (25:43) Have you ever considered the case of him who has taken his carnal desire for his god?[56] Can you take responsibility for guiding him to the Right Way?

    Ala-Maududi

    (25:43) Have you ever considered the case of him who has taken his carnal desire for his god?[56] Can you take responsibility for guiding him to the Right Way?

    56. “The person who makes his desire as his god” is the one who becomes the slave of his lusts and desires. As he serves his lust like the one who warships his deity. He becomes as much guilty of shirk as the one who worships an idol. According to a tradition, related by Abu Hurairah, the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: Of all the false gods being worshipped and served instead of Allah, the worst in the sight of Allah is one’s own lust. (Tabarani). For further explanation, see (Surah Al-Kahf, ayat 52) note 50.

    The man who keeps his desires under control, and uses his common sense to make decisions, can be expected to come to the right path by making an appeal to his reason even though he might have been involved in shirk or disbelief. For if he decides to follow the right way, he will remain firm and steadfast on it. On the other hand, the man who is the slave of his own lust, is like a ship without an anchor, who wanders about on any path where his lust leads him to. He is least bothered about the distinction between the right and the wrong, the true and the false, and has no desire to choose one against the other. And, if at all, such a person is persuaded to accept the message of guidance, no one can take the responsibility that he will observe any moral laws.

    (43) Have you seen the one who takes as his god his own desire? Then would you be responsible for him?
