Chapter 6 of the Quran (32) the Quran Warns Those…

The Quran is warning those who recognize they have no intercessor other than Allah, to intercede for them at the Day of Judgment. Verily, the believers fear their Lord in the life of this world especially the sinning believers. What they fear?

In the previous article, Allah commanded His Last Prophet Muhammad to ask the unbelievers these questions that were addressed to the entire unbelievers whenever and wherever they were:

Is the unbeliever (the blind man) equal to the believer (the seeing man)?

Were the unbelievers and the believers equal in acts of obedience and reward?

Were the unbelievers and the believers equal in fearing of their Creator?

Were the unbelievers and the believers identical in their outcome at the Day of Judgment?

Will you not then take thought about the similes of the Quran?

 

Then Ayah 6:51 says:

 

The Quran is warning and threatening those who fear they shall be gathered to their Lord at the Day of Judgment.

The Quran is warning and threatening those who realize that apart from their Lord they have no protector, to help them at the Day of Judgment.

The Quran is warning and threatening those who know that they have no intercessor other than Allah, to intercede for them at the Day of Judgment.

The Quran is warning and threatening those who recognize they have no savior other than Allah, to save them from the torment at the Day of Judgment.

 

It is well known that there were believers and unbelievers in respect to the Quran.

For unbelievers, they deny the Quran and they do not fear their Lord in the life of this world; but they will essentially fear Him at the Day of Judgment.

 

For believers, they certainly fear their Lord in the life of this world especially the sinning believers. What they fear?

 

It is said that the sinning believers were meant herein in this verse; so that they might be wary, of Allah, by desisting from what they engage in and performing deeds of obedience.

In other words, they may ward off evil and ward off transgressions, and this will help them perform works of obedience.
