suffer the punishment for their lack of conscience, because they re-
jected all of these opportunities so that they could continue to mock
the believers.
These people will be very surprised when they are resurrected,
along with the believers, and then sentenced to hell. They will want
to see those who they believed to be on the wrong path enter hell
with them. But at that very moment will they realize just how badly
they have been deceived. While they were laughing at and mocking
the believers, they were bringing themselves closer to a situation in
which they themselves would be belittled and mocked. Their bitter
condition is described in the following verses:
They will ask: "How is it that we do not see some people
whom we used to count among the worst of people? Did
we turn them into figures of fun? Did our eyes disdain to
look at them?" All of this is certainly true – the bickering of
the people of the Fire. (Surah Sâd, 62-64)
Seeing the believers go to paradise will be a great blow for the
unbelievers, because Allah has prepared paradise for the believers,
where they enjoy a wonderful environment, full of every type of
blessing, for all eternity. When the unbelievers are shown this ex-
traordinary realm, they will be astonished by what the believers
have earned. In fact, each person receives only what he has earned.
Allah describes the great Day when the believers will be separated
from the unbelievers:
You will see the wrongdoers afraid of what they have
earned, when it is about to land right on top of them,
whereas those who believe and do right actions will be in
the lush meadows of the Gardens. They will have whatever
they wish for with their Lord. That is the great favor. (Surat
ash-Shura, 22)
