Punishment for non-believers in Quran

“In the Quran there is reference of punishment for polytheists and disbelievers, that is people who believe in more than one God and those people who do not believe in truth. My question is: Is there any mention of those people who don't worship Allah and don't believe in His existence?”Asked by مس سعدیہ, USA

His answer, in his own words

god wants us to be successful and he is showering all his rahmat to make us successful. how sad would be our end if he fail even after such high level support which is working for us?" maulana, agla sawal lete hain jo miss sadia ne bheja hai usa se. unhon ne likha hai: "in quran there is reference of punishment for mushrikeen and kafir. that is people who believe in more than one god or those people who do not believe in truth. my question is: is there any mention of those people who don't worship allah or don't believe in his existence?" bhai, kahin punishment ke to hai nahi jo aap keh rahe hain. sirf ek hi cheez hai ke koi attack kare to defence mein un se tum lad sakte ho. wahan bhi yeh hai ke us ko manage karne ki koshish karo.

yeh nahi ke andaaz ladai shuru kar do. islam mein jo taleem hai woh yeh hai ke individuals ke liye hai ke aap un ko train karein, un ko tarbiyat karein, un ko samjhaein. yeh jo nikal rakha hai musalmanon ne ke jo rasool allah ke khilaf gustakhi kare, us ko maro, yeh bilkul jhooti baat hai. bilkul jhooti baat hai. maro nahi, is ko milo, is ke muhabbat se samjhao. is ko literature to parhne ke liye yeh bilkul jhoota concept hai ke jo gustakhi kare, us ko maro. yeh Islam mein hai hi nahi.

punishment in the hereafter. Maulana, woh jo punishment ko refer kar rahe hain, woh hereafter ki punishment ko refer kar rahe hain. Hereafter ki jo hai, woh punishment nahi hai. hadees mein aata hai: "in hai ila aamaalukum turad alaikum." kya hai sahab? is ko parhiye, is ka tarjuma parhiye: "in ya ila aamaalukum turad alaikum." ya ibaad, inma ya aamaalukum, ahsaha lakum, thum ufiyukum iyaha.

ae mere bando, beshak yeh tumhare aamaal hain jis ko hum ne tumhare liye shumar kar rakha hai. phir tum ko is ka poora poora badla diya jayega. sahih Muslim. to jannat aur jahannum ka jo concept hai Quran o hadees mein, woh to yahi hai ke hamara apne aamaal ka hamare tak loota jana, is ke result ka, is ke nateeje ka. to aadmi ko sochna chahiye ke mera amal kaisa hai, mera amal kaisa hai. kyunke Allah ne jab paida kiya hai to mein soch raha tha kal ke meri paidaish hui yakam January 1925 ko. is ka matlab kya hai? yakam January 1925 se pehle mein non existence tha, ghair maujood.

yakam January 1925 ko mein maujood ho gaya. kaisi ajeeb cheez hai! ek insaan bolne wala, sochne wala, chalne wala, yaani hazaron cheezein hain ek insaan ke andar, tab woh insaan banta hai. to aisa hai ke insaan ek tareekh se pehle wajood hi nahi tha is ka, aur phir is ka wajood ho gaya. yaani ghair maujood ko Allah ne maujood kar diya, non existent ko existent kar diya. yeh to kitni badi blessing hai!

is ka aadmi soche ke sari is ki way of thinking badal jaye. mein to yahi samajhta hoon. Maulana, agla comment bheja hai Muhammad Yaqoob Umri ne. unhone likha hai: "Maulana, I listen to the complete lecture without any
