Transliteration:( Fama yu kaz zibuka b'adu bid deen )
Denial of the Day of Judgement: The verse addresses the infidels and asks how they can deny the reality of the Day of Judgement when they have witnessed the cycles of life—birth, death, and resurrection. The same Lord who created them from nothing is surely capable of resurrecting them for the Day of Judgement. The verse reminds them that their creation from non-existence is a clear proof of Allah's power to resurrect and judge them on the Day of Reckoning.
Divine Proofs and Belief: The verse also alludes to the fact that after the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) had shown so many divine signs and proofs, there were still people who rejected his message. The question posed to the infidels suggests that after seeing these undeniable proofs, how can they still deny the truth of Islam? It is a direct challenge to their disbelief despite the clear evidence provided.
Reflecting on Divine Proofs as an Act of Worship: Reflecting on the divine signs and proofs is considered an act of worship. The infidels recognized the Prophet’s truthfulness in worldly matters but rejected his message regarding faith. This highlights the importance of considering and pondering over the divine truths and miracles, which is an essential part of worship and belief.
Importance of Recognizing the Religion: The verse reminds the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) that the signs he has shown are irrefutable, and it challenges those who reject faith after seeing all these proofs. The message is clear: acknowledging and reflecting upon the divine truths is crucial, as the denial of the Day of Judgement is a rejection of the very reality of creation and resurrection.
The tafsir of Surah Tin verse 7 by Ibn Kathir is unavailable here.
Please refer to Surah Tin ayat 1 which provides the complete commentary from verse 1 through 8.
(95:7) Who, then, can give the lie to you, (O Prophet), about the Reward and the Punishment?[6]
6. Another translation of this verse can be: What can after this (O man) make you deny the judgment? In both cases the intention and purpose remains the same. That is when it is a common observation in human society that a section of mankind which has been created in the best of molds and nature, is rendered lowest of the low because of moral degradation, and the other section remains secure by adopting the path of constant faith and righteousness in view of its being created in the best of molds and nature how can judgment be denied after this? Does common sense require that the end of both these men be the same? Does justice demand that neither those who are reduced to the lowest of the low be punished nor those who strive to adopt a righteous life be rewarded? The same theme has been expressed at other places in the Quran thus: Shall We then treat the obedient as We treat the culprits? What has happened to you: how ill you judge? (Surah Al-Qalam, Ayat 35). Do those who have committed evil think that We shall hold them and those who have believed and done righteous deeds as equal so that their life and their death should be alike? Ill are the judgments they pass. (Surah Al-Jathiyah, Ayat 21).
[1950]- More literally, "What makes you lie concerning it?"
