Al-Mujaadila (The Pleading Woman)
Verse 20 - 21
Table of Contents
20. Those who take a stance against Allah and His Messenger will be among the most humiliated people.
21. Allah has decreed: “Verily, it is I and My Messengers who shall triumph over hypocrites and disbelievers. Indeed, Allah is the Omnipotent, the Invincible.
Hypocrisy and dissimulation lead man to take a stance against God Almighty and His Messenger (S). As the Messenger's (S) commands are those issued by God Almighty, struggling against him is on a par with struggling against God Almighty. We should know that God Almighty and His Messenger (S) are triumphant, so those who take a stance against them are amongst the most humiliated and disgraced people.
Thus, the blessed Verse 20 says:
“Those who take a stance against Allah and His Messenger will be among the most humiliated people.”
It is substantiated by the blessed Verse 21, saying:
“Verily, it is I and My Messengers who shall triumph over hypocrites and disbelievers.”
God Almighty and His Messengers are triumphant, since
“Indeed, Allah is the Omnipotent, the Invincible.”
It is worthy of note that according to traditions, the Divine Promise as to the decisive conquest of truth over falsehood shall be actualized upon the rise of the Imam of the Age (may God Almighty hasten his arrival).
