The benefits of the saying of Allah the Exalted: “For them are canopies of fire above them and canopies below them. Thus does Allah frighten His servants with it. O My servants, so fear Me.”
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Allah the Exalted said, in explaining the punishment of the losers who lost themselves and their families on the Day of Resurrection, in explaining their punishment: [Az-Zumar 39:16]
Among the benefits of this verse is the severity of the punishment for the people of the Fire, because the punishment envelops them from above them and from beneath their feet. If a person cannot bear the fire when it comes from one direction, even if it is distant, how much less can he bear it when it comes from both directions, above and below?
And among the benefits of the noble verse is that it is obligatory for a person to fear what Allah has warned him of, so that he may realize true servitude, as He said:[Az-Zumar 39:16].
And among the benefits of the noble verse is that a person should proceed toward Allah Mighty and Majestic with a measure of fear, fear of the punishment. It has come up to us many times: does the one proceeding toward Allah prioritize the aspect of fear or the aspect of hope? As mentioned previously.
And among the benefits of the noble verse is that Allah Mighty and Majestic is the Lord of everything, and that everything is a worshipper of Allah, as He said:[Az-Zumar 39:16].
And among the benefits of the noble verse is the obligation of taqwa (mindfulness of Allah), as He the Exalted said:[Az-Zumar 39:16].
They will have canopies of fire above them and below them
