Araf 182-183
182- AS FOR THOSE WHO DENY OUR AYAHS, WE WILL GRADUALLY LEAD THEM FROM WHERE THEY DO NOT KNOW.
183- AND THEY ARE GIVEN TIME, FOR MY PLANNING IS FIRM.
Those who deny Allah’s Ayahs are the subject of these two Ayahs of the Quran. The Ayahs are:
- The Ayahs of the Quran.
- The Ayahs, which are the signs and the evidence of the presence of Allah the Highest, we see them all around us and in the universe.
- The Ayahs are also the miracles, Allah the Highest shows through His prophets and messengers, prayer and peace upon them, as a proof of their prophecy.
Allah the Highest does not punish immediately, but gives them time and leeway before being punished. This is for a number of reasons:
- To give them time to change and follow the right path.
- If they do not, it is a sign of Allah’s anger, giving them time, in which to give them a chance to do more wrong. Allah the Highest said: “THERE IS A DISEASE IN THEIR HEARTS AND ALLAH INCREASED THEIR DISEASE, AND A PAINFUL PENALTY IS THEIRS BECAUSE OF THEIR LYING”. (S:2 A:10)
- Giving them time so that when they are more sinful, then they are punished severely and unexpectedly. Allah the Highest said: “WHEN THEY FORGOT WHAT THEY WERE REMINDED WITH, WE OPENED THE DOORS OF EVERY THING GOOD FOR THEM, UNTIL THEY BECOME PLEASED WITH WHAT THEY WERE GIVEN, WE TOOK THEM UNEXPECTEDLY, THEN THEY WILL BE DESPONDENT”. (S:6 A:44)
Allah the Highest gives people leeway by means we do not always know or expect. This leeway however is a part of a firm and certain plan Allah the Highest has for them.
Allah the Highest however, tends to punish the good believers and correct them swiftly. This is to prevent them from carrying on doing wrong. Those that are left to their own devices and are let go astray without correction or punishment, to make them think, and return to the right path, this is then, a sign of Allah’s anger with them and that they are being given leeway, before they get severely punished. May Allah the Highest protect us from such an end.
