    82. “Therefore they shall laugh a little and weep much (as) a recompense for what they used to earn.”

    If the hypocrites knew what kind of rewards they have lost and how great opportunities and bounties they have rejected because of abandonment of the participation in the Holy Struggle, they should make merry little and weep very much. Yet, comparing the long time weepings in the Hereafter, that they will have before them, the weeping during their life-time is naught.

    The verse says:

    “Therefore they shall laugh a little and weep much (as) a recompense for what they used to earn.”
