Surah At-Tawbah 9:68

Other Characteristics of Hypocrites

Allah admonishes the hypocrites who, unlike the believers, who enjoin righteousness and forbid evil,

(they enjoin evil, and forbid the good, and they close their hands), from spending in Allah's cause,

(They have forgotten Allah), they have forgotten the remembrance of Allah,

(so He has forgotten them.), by treating them as if He has forgotten them. Allah also,

(And it will be said: "This Day We will forget you as you forgot the meeting of this Day of yours) 45:34. Allah said,

(Verily, the hypocrites are the rebellious) the rebellious from the way of truth who embrace the wicked way,

(Allah has promised the hypocrites -- men and women -- and the disbelievers, the fire of Hell), on account of their evildoing mentioned here,

(therein shall they abide.), for eternity, they and the disbelievers,

(It will suffice them.), as a torment,

(Allah has cursed them), He expelled and banished them from His mercy,

(and for them is the lasting torment.)

Ayat ini menerangkan ancaman Tuhan kepada orang-orang munafik baik pria maupun wanita dan ancaman-Nya kepada orang-orang kafir. Allah mengancam mereka dengan azab api neraka dan mereka kekal abadi di dalamnya. Mereka mendapat kutukan Tuhan di dunia dan di akhirat serta mereka tidak berhak mendapat rahmat Allah. Azab Tuhan terus-menerus menimpa mereka baik azab fisik maupun siksaan batin yang tak habis-habisnya. Mereka tidak dapat melihat wajah Allah karena melihat wajah Allah itu tidak diizinkan bagi orang-orang yang mengingkarinya.
