Surah Al-Baqarah 2:123

We mentioned a similar Ayah at the beginning of this Surah, and it is mentioned here to emphisize the importance of following the Ummi Prophet and Messenger, who is described for the People of the Scriptures in their Books by his characteristics, name, the good news about him and the description of his Ummah. Allah warned them against concealing this information, which is among the favors that Allah granted them. Allah also commanded them to remember their daily life and their religious affairs and how He blessed them. They should not envy their cousins, the Arabs, for what Allah has given them, the Final Messenger of Allah ﷺ being an Arab. Envy should not incite them to oppose or deny the Prophet or refrain from following him, may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him until the Day of Judgment.

Bani Israil diperingatkan agar selalu mengikuti agama Allah. Hendaklah mereka ingat akan kedatangan suatu hari, yang pada hari itu tidak ada sesuatu pun yang dapat menolong kecuali Allah.

Pada hari itu seseorang tidak dapat menolong orang lain menghindari diri dari azab Allah, tiap-tiap orang bertanggung jawab atas segala perbuatan yang pernah dilakukannya. Seseorang tidak dapat menebus dosanya dengan harta apa pun, dan seseorang tidak dapat menggantikan orang lain memikul azab. )

Ayat ini memperingatkan orang-orang yang beriman agar selalu menjaga diri dari azab hari Kiamat dengan melaksanakan semua perintah dan menghentikan larangan Allah.
