Transliteration:( Afaman kaana 'alaa baiyinatim mir Rabbihee kaman zuyyina lahoo sooo'u 'amalihee wattaba'ooo ahwaaa'ahum )
33. By this is meant all the believers whose beliefs are proven from the Holy QURAN. the Sunnah general consensus of the Ulama and the Principles of Analogy of the jurists.
A believer has firm belief on the veracity of his religion, but the infidel is not firm about the truth of his religion. In times of sickness, the infidel comes to the believer for the purpose of blowing on him from the Qurame verses. They go to seek benefits from the tombs of the saints Observe how thousands of infidels go to Badayun, Kachocha Shareef and Ajmer Shareef and present themselves in the court of these saints of Allah Almighty to seek bounties and benefits from them.
34. This tells us that the beliefs and deeds of the infidels are steeped in personal desires, either fabricated by themselves or by thetr leaders They do not have any proof from revelation for those. For this reason an infidel forgets his religion in the grave, while the believer says that he is a Muslum
14. Can then he, who stands on clear evidence from his Lord, be like those for whom their evil deeds are beautified for them, while they follow their own lusts 15. The description of Paradise which is promised to those who have Taqwa, (is that) in it are rivers of water that are not Asin, rivers of milk the taste of which never changes, rivers of wine delicious to those who drink it, and rivers of refined honey; and therein for them are all kinds of fruits, and forgiveness from their Lord. Can this be likened to those who abide eternally in the Fire and are given to drink boiling water that severs their intestines
Allah says:
(Can then he, who stands on clear evidence from his Lord…) This means a person who is upon clear vision and certainty concerning Allah’s commands and His religion, because of the guidance and knowledge that Allah has revealed in His Book, and because of the pure nature upon which Allah has created him.
((Can he) be likened to those for whom their evil deeds are beautified for them, while they follow their own lusts) which means that they cannot be equal. This is similar to Allah’s saying,
(Can he who knows that what has been revealed unto you from your Lord is the truth be like him who is blind) (13:19) And,
(Not equal are the people of the Fire and the people of Paradise. The People of Paradise will be the successful ones.) (59:20)
Allah then says:
(The description of Paradise which is promised for those who have Taqwa…) `Ikrimah said,
(The description of Paradise) “This means its description.”
(In it are rivers of water that are not Asin,) Ibn `Abbas, may Allah be pleased with him, Al-Hasan, and Qatadah all said, “It does not change.” Qatadah, Ad-Dahhak, and `Ata’ Al-Khurasani all said, “It is not foul-smelling.” The Arabs say Asin if its (water) scent changes.
(rivers of milk, the taste of which never changes,) which means that the milk is of utmost whiteness, sweetness, and richness. It has been mentioned in a Hadith attributed to the Prophet “Their milk did not come out of the udders of cattle.”
(rivers of wine delightful to those who drink it, ) hich means that the wine does not have a bad taste or foul smell like that of the worldly life. Rather, it is good in its appearance, taste, smell, and effect, as Allah says,
(it (the wine) has no bad effects, nor does it cause intoxication.) (37:47) and,
(From which (the wine) they will have no headache, nor will they be intoxicated.) (56:19)
(white, delicious to the drinkers.)(37:46) It has been mentioned in a Hadith attributed to the Prophet , “Their wine was not pressed under men’s feet.”
(and rivers of refined honey;) which means that the honey is of utmost purity and pleasant color, taste, and smell. It has been mentioned in a Hadith attributed to the Prophet , “Their honey did not come out of the bellies of bees.” Imam Ahmad recorded from Hakim bin Mu`awiyah who narrated from his father that Allah’s Messenger said,
(Verily, there is in Paradise a lake of milk, a lake of water, a lake of honey, and a lake of wine. The rivers then gush out of them. At-Tirmidhi reported this narration in his section of the Description of Paradise, and he said, “Hasan Sahih. In the Sahih, it is recorded that Allah’s Messenger said,
(When you ask Allah, ask Him for Al-Firdaws, because it is the central and highest part of the Paradise, and from it gush the rivers of the Paradise and above it is the Throne of the Most Merciful.)Allah says,
(…and therein for them are all kinds of fruits, …) This similar to His saying,
(They will call in it for every kind of fruit in peace and security.) (44:55) And His saying,
(In them will be every kind of fruits in pairs.) (55:52) Allah says
(. ..and forgiveness from their Lord.) meaning, in addition to all of the above. Allah says,
(Can this be likened to those who abide eternally in the Fire) meaning, `can those that We have described their position in the Paradise be like those who will abide eternally in the Fire’ They are not equal, and nor are those who will be in the high ranks (in the Paradise) and those who will be in the lowest depths (Hell).
(and are given to drink boiling water) meaning, extremely hot; so hot that it is unbearable.
(that severs their intestines) meaning, that will cut their insides — both bowels and intestines. We seek refuge in Allah from that.
(47:14) Then, can he, who is on a Clear Guidance from His Lord, be like him whose evil deeds have been embellished to him, and who pursued their lusts?[19]
19. That is, how is it possible that when the Prophet and his followers have been guided by God to a clear and straight path and they have started following it in the light of full knowledge and vision, they should walk along, with those who are still persisting in their ways of ignorance, who regard their deviation as guidance and their evildoing as a praiseworthy thing, and who judge on the basis of their personal desires, and not by argument as to what is the truth and what is falsehood. Now, neither can the lives of these two groups be alike in this world nor can their end be alike in the Hereafter.
