No doubt, confronting this truth is the worst possible situation
for materialists. The fact that everything they possess is only an
illusion is tantamount, in their own words, to "death before dying."
This leaves them alone with Allah. Allah brings to attention the fact
that each human being is, in truth, alone in His presence:
Leave Me alone with the one I alone 120
This remarkable fact is repeated in many other verses:
And You have certainly come to Us alone [i.e.,
individually] as We created you the first time, and you
have left whatever We bestowed up on you behind you. 121
And all of them are coming to Him on the Day of
Resurrection alone. 122
On another level the verses indicate that those who take matter
as their god have come from Allah and will be returned to Him. Thus,
they submit to Allah whether they want to or not. Even now they
await the Day of Judgement when everyone of them will be called to
account, however unwilling they may be to understand it.
