THE LOT OF THE ARROGANT
IN THE HEREAFTER
part from defining who the arrogant are, Allah also
informs us about the end the people with
A Pharaonic arrogance will meet in the hereafter.
One verse reads as follows:
When he is told to have fear of Allah, he is seized by
pride which drives him to wrongdoing. Hell will be
enough for him! What an evil resting-place! (Surat al-
Baqara: 206)
As we are to understand from the Qur' an, the
recompense of those who were too proud to worship Allah,
the Almighty, is Hell. The related verses are as follows:
...Those who are too proud to worship Me will enter
Hell abject. (Surah Ghafir: 60)
That is because you exulted on the earth, without any
right to do so; and strutted about. Enter the gates of
Hell, remaining in it timelessly, for ever. How evil is the
abode of the arrogant! (Surah Ghafir: 75-76)
