Al Baqarah

HR Background

اِنَّ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا وَ مَاتُوْا وَ هُمْ كُفَّارٌ اُولٰٓىٕكَ عَلَیْهِمْ لَعْنَةُ اللّٰهِ وَ الْمَلٰٓىٕكَةِ وَ النَّاسِ اَجْمَعِیْنَ(161)

English translation of Kanz-ul-Irfan

Indeed, those who disbelieved and died as disbelievers,[1] upon them is the curse of Allah, and the Angels, and all people.[2]

Commentary

[1]

Kuffār (Qurʾanic term) is the plural of Kāfir (disbeliever).

[2]

Being deprived of the treasure of faith at the time of death is the most ill-fated scenario, whereas dying with faith is the greatest privilege. Therefore, every Muslim should fear a bad death despite good deeds, worship, and piety.
