An-Nahl (The Bee)

88. “Those who disbelieved and hindered (people) from the path of Allah, We added punishment to punishment for that they used to spread mischief.”

All corruptions have their origin in paganism, as is the case with all decent acts which take their roots from Faith. Those pioneers of paganism, who obstruct the people from the path of Allah by their pen, expression and other means, will have to settle a different kind of account from those of ordinary people.

Up till now, we were involved in our discussion of those misled pagans who were caught in their paganism and deviation without calling others to their path. Later, the cases of those are exposed who are not only misled themselves but they also seek to mislead others as well.

The verse says:

“Those who disbelieved and hindered (people) from the path of Allah, We added punishment to punishment for that they used to spread mischief.”

A well known tradition says:

“Everyone who establishes a good practice, will be rewarded the reward of those who do it accordingly, without diminishing anything from their reward; and he who lays the foundation of an evil act, will be held responsible for the sin of all those who commit that sin, without decreasing anything from their sin.”
