Question:
And the light of blood is not something we must ever disobey, and it is said of the one who enjoys forgiveness in this world through the beauty of nature and the abundance of bounties, that it is right in this world, so that they may have no share in the Hereafter of what they saw.
Answer:
The blessings that disbelievers are given in this world are a form of gradual entrapment for them. Let not those who disbelieve think that[Ali 'Imran 3:178] Indeed, [Ali 'Imran 3:178], as He, Glorified and Exalted is He, said: [Al-A'raf 7:94] [Al-An'am 6:43-44].
[Al-An'am 6:44] So the blessings in the hands of disbelievers are a gradual entrapment for them. It may be the case for some of their individuals, not all of them, that some of their individuals have good deeds in this world, so Allah rewards them for them in this world. If a disbeliever does a good deed, he is rewarded for it in this world, but in the Hereafter he has no reward.
What they are blessed with is a form of gradual luring, while some of their individuals may be rewarded for a good deed or good deeds they did in this world.
And the light of blood is not something we must ever disobey, and it is said of the one who enjoys forgiveness in this world through the beauty of nature and the abundance of bounties, that it is right in this world, so that they may have no share in the Hereafter of what they saw.
Answer:
The blessings that disbelievers are given in this world are a form of gradual entrapment for them. Let not those who disbelieve think that
that [because] We extend their time [of enjoyment] it is better for them
أَنَّمَا نُمْلِي لَهُمْ خَيْرٌ لِّأَنفُسِهِمْWe only extend it for them so that they may increase in sin
إِنَّمَا نُمْلِي لَهُمْ لِيَزْدَادُوا إِثْمًاAnd We sent to no city a prophet [who was denied] except that We seized its people with poverty
وَمَا أَرْسَلْنَا فِي قَرْيَةٍ مِّن نَّبِيٍّ إِلَّا أَخَذْنَا أَهْلَهَا بِالْبَأْسَاءِ(43) Then why, when Our punishment came to them, did they not humble themselves? But their hearts became hardened, and Satan made attractive to them that which they were doing. (44) So when they forgot that by which they had been reminded, We opened to them the doors of every [good] thing until, when they rejoiced in that which they were given, We seized them suddenly, and they were [then] in despair.
فَلَوْلَا إِذْ جَاءَهُم بَأْسُنَا تَضَرَّعُوا وَلَٰكِن قَسَتْ قُلُوبُهُمْ وَزَيَّنَ لَهُمُ الشَّيْطَانُ مَا كَانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ فَلَمَّا نَسُوا مَا ذُكِّرُوا بِهِ فَتَحْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ أَبْوَابَ كُلِّ شَيْءٍuntil, when they rejoiced in that which they were given, We seized them suddenly, and they were [then] in despair.
حَتَّىٰ إِذَا فَرِحُوا بِمَا أُوتُوا أَخَذْنَاهُم بَغْتَةً فَإِذَا هُم مُّبْلِسُونَWhat they are blessed with is a form of gradual luring, while some of their individuals may be rewarded for a good deed or good deeds they did in this world.
