Reason of destroying the generations

Chapter “Qasas”- (The Story) - 28

‘A-‘uu-zu  Billaahiminash-Shay-taanir- Rajiim.

 (I seek refuge in Allaah from Satan the outcast)

Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.
(In the name of Allaah, the Beneficent, the Merciful)

   أَوَلَمْ يَعْلَمْ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ قَدْ أَهْلَكَ مِن قَبْلِهِۦ مِنَ ٱلْقُرُونِ مَنْ هُوَ أَشَدُّ مِنْهُ قُوَّةً وَأَكْثَرُ جَمْعًا وَلَا يُسْـَٔلُ عَن ذُنُوبِهِمُ ٱلْمُجْرِمُونَ 78  فَخَرَجَ عَلَىٰ قَوْمِهِۦ فِى زِينَتِهِۦ

                               

78b.  Knew he not that Allah had destroyed already of the generations before him who were mightier than him in strength and greater in assemblage? The guilty will not be questioned of their sins. 79a.  Then went he forth before his people in his pomp.

78b.  ‘Awa  lam  ya’-lamu  ‘annAllaaha  qad  ‘ahlaka  min  qablihii  minal-quruuni  man  huwa  ‘ashaddu  minhu  quwwatanw-wa  ‘aksaru  jam-‘aa.  Wa  laa  yus-‘alu  ‘an-  zunuubihimul-mujrimuun. 79a.  Fakharaja  ‘alaa  qawmihii  ziinatih.

Commentary

Wise people of the nation caused to understand Qarun: We accept it that you have collected so much wealth and have become very rich. But it does not mean that you begin to exult. You should spend your wealth for helping the poor people. It is Kindness of Allaah Almighty that He has given you wealth. In exchange, you should do acts of kindness with other people. Being displeased; Korah said: Stop saying! Keep your advice to yourselves. This wealth is not of the father of any other. I have earned it by the knowledge I have. Alas! He forgot Allaah Almighty due to pride of his wealth.

It is commanded: He was ignorant who did not understand that Allaah Almighty has destroyed the rebellions before him, who were owners of throne and crown, and the wealth used to come to whom from all around. They had great Army. At last Allaah Almighty dethroned them within twinkling of an eye. Neither their emperor remained and nor wealth. The people who considered that the sin was nothing and who rejected the Prophets (peace be upon them), asking from them concerning their sins is useless. They are criminals clearly. Everything of the Omnipotent witnesses that they are wrongdoers. On the other side, the Angels (peace be upon them) have been recording in their Conduct Sheet; their entire such deeds which they have been committing against the Law of the Nature. Then what is the need of asking from the guilty? If they will be questioned, it will not be for proving that they are evildoers, but to abash and put them to shame.

Qarun did not listen to them who advised and then on a day he came out before his people in his pomp and adornment.
