Tafsir von Maududi für die Ayaat 69 bis 77
Have you seen how those who dispute concerning Allah's 69-77 Revelations are being turned about? ( 99 ) Those who deny this Book and those Books which We sent with Our Messengers, ( 100 ) shall soon know when, with fetters round their necks and chains, they shall be dragged <. towards boiling water and then cast into the fire of Hell. ( 101 ) Then they will be asked, "Where are those other gods than Allah, whom you associated?" ( 102 ) They will answer, "They have been lost to us; nay, we did not call upon anything before this. " ( 103 ) Thus will Allah establish the deviation of the disbelievers. It will be said to them, "You have met this fate because you rejoiced on the earth in things other than the Truth, and then exulted in it. ( 104 ) Enter now the gates of Hell to live therein for ever. What an evil abode for the arrogant! So, be patient, ( 105 ) O Prophet: Allah's promise is true. Whether We let you witness a part of the evil consequences with which We are threatening them, or recall you from the world (before this), they have to return to Us. ( 106 )
Desc No: 99 That is, "Have you not understood even after the above discourse what is the real source of these people's misunderstanding and misconduct, and what has caused them to go astray? "(One should note that the addressee hire is not the Holy Prophet but every such person who reads these verses or hears them read).
Desc No: 100 This is the real cause of their going astray Their denial of the Qur'an and the teachings brought by the Messenger of Allah and their resisting by disputation the Revelations of Allah instead of pondering over them seriously, was the basic cause, which has led them astray and exhausted all possibilities of their adopting the Right Way .
Desc No: 101 That is, "When compelled by the intensity of thirst they will ask for water, the keepers of Hell will drag them by the chains towards the springs of boiling water, and when they will have drunk from them, they will drag them back to be cast into the fire of Hell. "
Desc No: 102 That is, "If they really were gods or associates in Godhead, and you worshipped them in the hope that they would help you in the evil time, then why don't they come to rescue you now?"
Desc No: 103 They do not mean to say, "We did not associate them with God in the world," but they mean: "Now we have understood well that those whom we invoked in the world, were nothing and mere nonentities."
Desc No: 104 That is, "You not only followed that which was untrue and false, but you became so enamoured of the untruth that when the Truth was presented before you, you paid no heed to it, but continued to exult in yow worship of the falsehood.
Desc No: 105 That is, "You should have patience at what those people say and do, who arc opposing you by disputation and wrangling and want to defeat you by mean devices."
Desc No: 106 That is, "It is not necessary that We should punish every such person who has tried to harm you, in this world and during yow lifetime. Whether a person receives his punishment here or not, he cannot in any case escape Ow grasp: he has to return to Us after death. Then he will receive full punishment of his misdeeds."
