[Pooya/Ali Commentary 25:22]
The disbelievers will see the angels on the day of reckoning who will inform them that they will not be allowed to enter the land of eternal bliss. By hijran mahjura it has been made emphatic and definite.
[Shakir 25:23] And We will proceed to what they have done of deeds, so We shall render them as scattered floating dust.
[Pooya/Ali Commentary 25:23]
Even the good deeds of the disbelievers, if any, will be dissipated as if they were dust flying about in the wind. They will have no value at all because the disbelievers did not believe in Allah and the hereafter.
Imam Muhammad bin Ali al Baqir said:
[Shakir 25:24] The dwellers of the garden shall on that day be in a better abiding-place and a better resting-place.
[Pooya/Ali Commentary 25:24]
[Shakir 25:25] And on the day when the heaven shall burst asunder with the clouds, and the angels shall be sent down descending (in ranks).
[Pooya/Ali Commentary 25:25]
The day of judgement will be a day of terrible hardships for the disbelievers. What we cannot see now will be clearly visible. The sky, which now appears remote and blank, will be rent asunder. There will appear the holy spirits of all grades of excellence, and the true majesty and glory of Allah will be visible as it should be in reality.
Aqa Mahdi Puya says:
Here sama means the various spheres, one upon the other, like the clouds which cover the space above them. Shaq means the removal of the cover like a cloth is torn asunder. Then the dwellers of the upper spheres will descend. In verse 104 of Anbiya it is said that the heavens will be rolled up like a written scroll. In verse 29 of Shura it is said that all the living things will be gathered together if He wills. Verses 4 to 6 of Waqi-ah say that the earth will be shaken up convulsively, the mountains bruised and crushed, turned to dust, floating in the air. Verses 7 to 9 of Qiyamah say that the eyes will be dazed, the moon eclipsed, and the sun and the moon are conjoined. Verses 8 to 10 of Mursalat say that the stars will be obliterated, the heavens split asunder, the mountains will be reduced to dust and blown away. Verse 19 of Naba says that the heavens will be opened wide as if there were doors. There are similar descriptions in Takwir, Infitar and Inshiqaq also.
A close study of these verses indicate that just before the day of resurrection all the barriers of time and space which separate the conscious beings from each other will be removed.
[Shakir 25:26] The kingdom on that day shall rightly belong to the Beneficent Allah, and a hard day shall it be for the unbelievers.
[Pooya/Ali Commentary 25:26] (see commentary for verse 25)
[Shakir 25:27] And the day when the unjust one shall bite his hands saying: O! would that I had taken a way with the Messenger
[Pooya/Ali Commentary 25:27]
Aqa Mahdi Puya says:
The unjust referred to in this verse are those who had gone astray after receiving the guidance. They were among those who declared belief in Allah and His prophet and His religion. After seeing and accepting the clear evidences they had deviated from the right path as said in verse 19 of Ali Imran. There were quite a few like these among the companions of the Holy Prophet.
[Shakir 25:28] O woe is me! would that I had not taken such a one for a friend !
[Pooya/Ali Commentary 25:28]
Do not make friends with any one who openly or secretly has opposed the commands of Allah and the Holy Prophet. The thoroughly purified Ahl ul Bayt are alone the best medium to reach the nearness of the absolute pure. Be their friends and followers. A warning has been given in these verses not to choose or accept any one, other than the thoroughly purified, as the guide-leader (Imam), particularly those who on account of their spiritual impurity openly defied the commands of Allah and the Holy Prophet regarding the wilayah and imamah of Ali ibn abi Talib and the Imams in his progeny through Bibi Fatimah Zahra. Please refer to hadith al thaqalayn under "Essentials: For the readers of the Holy Quran"; commentary of al Ma-idah : 5 and 67; Ali Imran : 61; Ahzab : 33.
The impurity of evil in the opponents of the Ahl ul Bayt always betrays people in time of need.
[Shakir 25:29] Certainly he led me astray from the reminder after it had come to me; and the Shaitan fails to aid man.
[Pooya/Ali Commentary 25:29] (see commentary for verse 28)
[Shakir 25:30] And the Messenger cried out: O my Lord! surely my people have treated this Quran as a forsaken thing.
[Pooya/Ali Commentary 25:30]
The Holy Prophet refers to those of his followers who have been described in verses 28 and 29, who separated the Quran from the Ahl ul Bayt and shackled both of them head to foot as shown by history.
[Shakir 25:31] And thus have We made for every prophet an enemy from among the sinners and sufficient is your Lord as a Guide and a Helper.
[Pooya/Ali Commentary 25:31]
Falsehood (of the sinners) is always hostile to truth but those who adhere to truth should not have any apprehension because Allah helps those who sincerely work in His cause.
[Shakir 25:32] And those who disbelieve say: Why has not the Quran been revealed to him all at once? Thus, that We may strengthen your heart by it and We have arranged it well in arranging.
[Pooya/Ali Commentary 25:32]
Aqa Mahdi Puya says:
The purpose of gradual revelation is to make people understand the meaning of every verse; and let them become familiar with the proper recitation of the Quran. Refer to the commentary of al Baqarah : 2 and my essay "The genuineness of the Holy Quran."
[Shakir 25:33] And they shall not bring to you any argument, but We have brought to you (one) with truth and best in significance.
[Pooya/Ali Commentary 25:33]
