Page 51 - Before You Regret

Harun Yahya (Adnan Oktar) 49
Your Lord says, "Call on Me and I will answer you.
Those who are too proud to worship Me will enter hell
abject." (Surah Ghafir: 60)
Allah's Messenger (saas) emphasized the same point
in a hadith:
... Shall I inform you about the people of the Fire? They
comprise every cruel, violent, proud and conceited person.
(Bukhari)
Considering themselves to be all-powerful in the
world, some of these people insolently rebelled against
our Lord. Power, they assumed, would provide deliver-
ance. When they were reminded about the attribute of
Allah, the al-Qahhar (The Subduer), the existence of hell
and paradise, and were offered guidance to the way
favored by Allah, they retorted:
"Why does Allah not punish us for what we say?" Hell
will be enough for them! They will roast in it. What an
evil destination! (Surat al-Mujadala: 8)
In response to their rebellion, they will be taken in
through hell's gates and never again allowed out unless
Allah wills otherwise. The moment they see the fire, they
will feel an unbearable regret for their wrongs. Allah
reveals in the Qur'an that this is the moment they explic-
itly realize there is no way out of hell:
The evildoers will see the Fire and realize they are
going to fall into it and find no way of escaping from it.
(Surat al-Kahf: 53)
