Al Imran

HR Background

لَقَدْ سَمِـعَ اللّٰهُ قَوْلَ الَّذِیْنَ قَالُوْۤا اِنَّ اللّٰهَ فَقِیْرٌ وَّ نَحْنُ اَغْنِیَآءُۘ-سَنَكْتُبُ مَا قَالُوْا وَ قَتْلَهُمُ الْاَنْۢبِیَآءَ بِغَیْرِ حَقٍّۙ-وَّ نَقُوْلُ ذُوْقُوْا عَذَابَ الْحَرِیْقِ(181)

English translation of Kanz-ul-Irfan

Indeed, Allah has heard the declaration of those who said, “Indeed, Allah is dependent and we are affluent people.” Now We shall write what that they said and their unjust martyring of Prophets, and We shall say, “Taste the punishment of burning.”[1]

Commentary

[1]

In this verse, the disrespect of Allah Almighty and the murder of prophets have been mentioned together, after which there is a warning of punishment, implying that both offences are most severe and equal in evil. One who disrespects the noble prophets is like the one who disrespects the Greatness of Allah Almighty and deserves the punishment of Hell; disrespect for the Prophets is disrespect for Allah Almighty.
