Tafseer Surah Al Kahf Part 19 Day Of Judgement And Greatest Losers

Shaykh Yasir Qadhi discusses verses 99 to 105 that deals with the Day of Judgement, the Blowing of the horn,Seeing Jahannam (Hell), the verdict of those who never heard of Islam and those who will be at the greatest loss. “…and the Trumpet will be blown, then We shall gather them (all) together.” From these verses, we gather that at the end of this world and at the beginning of the coming world, there will happen firstly, destruction of all human beings and the living creatures and secondly, the resurrection of the dead. “And on that day, We shall present Hell to the disbelievers exposed (to their view).” The Hell, with its different painful punishments will appear before us in its entirety and clarity and its mere observation itself is a dreadful punishment for us. “Say: ‘Shall We inform you of the greatest losers in (their) deeds?” “Those whose effort is lost in this world’s life, while they think that they are working good deeds.” We gather insight on the true meaning of being the biggest losers and how it would be. “They are those who disbelieved in the signs of their Lord and meeting Him (in Hereafter) so their deeds became null, and on the Day of Resurrection We assign no weight for them.” The verses imply that the disbelievers who denied the Divine Revelations and the Rewards of Allah have spoiled their deeds and hence, will not be worthy and respectable with Allah on the Day of Resurrection. He will not heed them, He will despise them since they have nothing which can be worthy and measurable. There will be no scale for them on the Day of Hereafter since they have nothing of worth to weigh on it.
