Page 165 - The Silent Language Of Evil

Harun Yahya

(Surat al-Baqara: 81)

And what of him the evil of whose actions appears fine to
him so that he sees them as good? Allah misguides who-
ever He wills and guides whoever He wills. So do not let
yourself waste away out of regret for them. Allah knows
what they do. (Surah Fatir: 8)
As the Qur'an says, those who follow satan and persist in doing
evil will suffer an eternity of pain. No matter how many excuses a
person may offer to prove his innocence, he will not be accepted in
the world to come. Actually, the Qur'an tells us that a person knows
that such excuses are insincere lies:
In fact, man will be clear proof against himself. In spite of
any excuses he might offer. (Surat al-Qiyama: 14-15)

And in the world to come, this person will admit with great sor-
row that he followed satan and turned his back on the true path of
his own free will:
The Day when a wrongdoer will bite his hands and say,
"Alas for me! If only I had gone the way of the Messenger!
Alas for me! If only I had not taken so-and-so for a friend!"
[A wrongdoer will say,] "He led me astray from the
Reminder after it came to me." satan always leaves man in
the lurch. (Surat al-Furqan: 27-29)
If only you could see when they are standing before the
Fire and saying, "Oh! If only we could be sent back again,
we would not deny the signs of our Lord and we would be
among the believers." (Surat al-An'am: 27)

We have warned you of an imminent punishment on the
Day when a man will see what he has done, and the unbe-
liever will say, "Oh, if only I were dust!" (Surat an-Naba': 40)
