Frightening By The Devil

 

Believers fear  God instead of Satan (L-489) 

 إِنَّمَا ذَٰلِكُمُ ٱلشَّيْطَٰنُ يُخَوِّفُ أَوْلِيَآءَهُۥ فَلَا تَخَافُوهُمْ وَخَافُونِ إِن كُنتُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ.  175

  وَلَا يَحْزُنكَ ٱلَّذِينَ يُسَٰرِعُونَ فِى ٱلْكُفْرِ إِنَّهُمْ لَن يَضُرُّوا۟ ٱللَّهَ شَيْـًٔا يُرِيدُ ٱللَّهُ أَلَّا يَجْعَلَلَهُمْ حَظًّا فِى ٱلْءَاخِرَةِ وَلَهُمْ  عَذَابٌ عَظِيمٌ.  176

175.  ’Innamaa  zaalikumush-Shay-taanu  yukhaw-wifu  ‘awli-yaaa-‘ah.  Falaa  takhaa-fuuhum  wa  khaafuuNi  ‘in- kuntum-Mu’-miniin. 

176.  Wa  laa  yah-zunkallaziina  yusaari-‘uuna  fil-kufr.  ‘Inna-hum  lany—yazurrUllaaha  shay-‘aa.  YuriidUllaahu  ‘allaa  yaj-‘ala  lahum  hazzan-  fil-‘Aakhirah.  Wa  lahum  ‘azaabun  ‘aziim.

175. That is only Satan frightening his partisans; so do not fear them, but fear Me, if you are believers.

176. And do not be saddened by those who rush into disbelief. They will not harm God in the least. God desires to give them no share in the Hereafter. A terrible torment awaits them.


yukhaw-wifu  - (frightens, terrifies), that is to say; the fear and concern about the future. Devilish temptations perplex and make the human being anxious always about his future. The words takhaa-fuuhum  and  khaafuuni  in this lesson have been derived from the word ‘Khawf’ which means fear and fright.

‘awli-yaaa-‘ahu – (his partisans, his friends, his helpers and his supporters). Singular of this word is walii. Due to suitableness of this word’s meanings, the pious and good persons are called ‘awli-yaaa-‘Allaah.

yusaari-‘uuna – (they run easily), it means, “they make haste, hasten.

God
commands that the person, who wants to inspire the awe about your enemy through spreading the false news, is disciple of the Devil and misled by Satan. His aim is to frighten you by inspiring with their awe. Therefore, do not fear them if you have faith (you are truly Believers). God affirmed, “You have proved practically that you do not fear the Devil. So, do never fear these devils, but fear Me only. Hypocrites run unto disbelief because of his false news, for lo!  They injure God not at all; let not their conduct grieve you. Neither they can damage anything which belongs to the Messenger of God (ﷺ); and nor they can harm the Religion of God, but they have been harming themselves only. It is the Will of God to assign them no portion in the Hereafter as retaliation of their hypocrisy, and an awful doom will be waiting for them on the Doomsday.
