Table of Contents

    45. Therefore leave them alone till they meet their Day in which they will be afflicted with Divine Wrath and lightning.

    46. The Day when their plotting and stratagems shall not avail them at all nor shall they be helped from any side.

    The twain blessed Verses address the Noble Prophet of Islam (S) bidding him to leave them alone until they taste the hardship of a Day on which they shall have neither refuge nor deliverance. On that Day their plots and stratagems may not save them but they shall be recompensed for their vicious deeds and vile words.

    The blessed Verses bid the Noble Prophet (S) to not entertain any grief or sorrow for their words and deeds, since it is his obligation to propagate his Divine Call upon whose fulfillment he is supposed to leave them alone until the Day arrives on which they shall taste the recompense of their deeds and perceive that what they imagined to be their means of deliverance from torment shall be of no avail to them, but it has led to their loss.

    It shall be on that Day that they may find neither support nor assistance. It may be noted in passing that the passive verbal form yus‘aqun denotes unconsciousness and perdition as a result of lighting of torment.
