Commentary
Bil-‘Aa-khirati – (at the
price of the Hereafter), it appears from study of the religious books of the
Jews that Belief in the Hereafter had not remained in their hearts. It is fact
that concept of God Almighty and the Day of Resurrection is main Check and
prohibition from evil-doing and sinful life. If the human being has no concept
about second eternal life, rewards/remuneration on good deeds and punishment on
sins and evil deeds; then there is no such method to resist him from committing
sins and evil-doing.
Laa hum yunsaruun - (they will
not be supported), its origin is nasara,
which means support, help. Ansaar (the supporters) is also from this
word and the word Mansur has been
derived from it too, which means victor and victorious. Meanings of the entire
sentence are, “They will not be supported by anyone to lighten their
punishment”.
The Jews had fallen in the false suspicion
that they, whether; how much sins commit, their ancestors and pious persons
will reach to help them on the Day of Resurrection and save them from the torment
of the Fire. Now God Almighty has decreed that their belief is invalid and
wrong, and commanded that they would not be supported from any side.
Summary of previous verses has been described in this verse that
the people, who disobeyed the Commands of Allah, the Most high, turned back
from their covenant after binding it and sacrificed their religion for their
worldly benefits, followed the casual worldly relishes and tastes by giving up
rewards, favors and kindnesses of the Day of Resurrection. They have bought temporary
comfort of this world by leaving the prosperity of the Judgment Day. There will
be severe punishment for them on the Day of Resurrection. Neither the distress
upon them will be forgiven and nor will it be lessened. Those individuals
should know that none can set them free and nor anybody can help them in this
matter. After death, only good deeds of every individual will support him/her.
