بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ

7.37

فَمَنْ اَظْلَمُ مِمَّنِ افْتَرٰى عَلَى اللّٰهِ كَذِبًا اَوْ كَذَّبَ بِاٰیٰتِهٖؕ-اُولٰٓىٕكَ یَنَالُهُمْ نَصِیْبُهُمْ مِّنَ الْكِتٰبِؕ-حَتّٰۤى اِذَا جَآءَتْهُمْ رُسُلُنَا یَتَوَفَّوْنَهُمْۙ-قَالُوْۤا اَیْنَ مَا كُنْتُمْ تَدْعُوْنَ مِنْ دُوْنِ اللّٰهِؕ-قَالُوْا ضَلُّوْا عَنَّا وَ شَهِدُوْا عَلٰۤى اَنْفُسِهِمْ اَنَّهُمْ كَانُوْا كٰفِرِیْنَ(37)

Kanz ul Iman Kanz ul Irfan

English translation of Kanz-ul-Irfan

So who is a greater oppressor than the one who ascribed a lie to Allah[1] or denied His verses? They shall attain their decreed share until Our messengers (angels) come to them to take their souls so they (the angels) say, “Where are those whom you were worshipping other than Allah?” They say ˹in reply˺, “They have forsaken us”, and they testify against themselves that they were disbelievers.

Commentary

There are different scenarios of ascribing lies to Allah Almighty: 1. Making stars or idols partners of Divinity with Allah Almighty; 2. Stating gods of good and evil, Yazdān and Ahraman respectively (the dualistic Zoroastrian belief); 3. Ascribing sons or children to Allah Almighty; 4. Attributing false commands to Allah Almighty; 5. Denying verses means not believing that the Holy Quran is a Book revealed by Allah Almighty and denying the prophethood of the Final Messenger صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم.
