DAY 128: A'raf 34-39

•  For every people there is an appointed time. So, when their appointed time will come, they cannot be late for a moment, nor will they get ahead. O children of ’Ādam, if messengers from among you come to you conveying My verses to you, then, those who fear Allah and correct themselves will have no fear, nor shall they grieve. Those who reject Our verses and stand arrogant against them, - they are the inmates of the Fire. There they shall live forever. Who does more wrong than those who fabricate lies against Allah or deny His messages? They will receive what is destined for them, until Our messenger-angels arrive to take their souls, asking them, “Where are those ˹false gods˺ you used to invoke besides Allah?” They will cry, “They have failed us,” and they will confess against themselves that they were indeed disbelievers. Allah will say, “Enter the Fire along with the peoples who passed before you from the Jinn and the human beings.” Whenever a group will enter it, they will curse their fellows, until when all of them will have joined each other in it, the latter ones will say about the former ones “Our Lord, they misguided us; so, give them a double punishment of the Fire.” He will say, “For each there is a double, but you do not know.” The former ones will say to the latter ones, “So, you have no privilege against us. Now, taste the punishment for what you have been earning.”

      Divine Deadline: Nations rise and fall by Allah’s will—no one escapes their term.
      Prophets as Warners: Rejecting them leads to Hell; heeding them brings salvation.
      Arrogance = Eternal Loss: Pride hardens hearts against truth.
      Blame Game in Hell: Misleaders and followers will regret, but too late.
      
      Satan and Evil Humans Are "Con Artists" Leading to Hell
      Satan’s Role:
          The primary deceiver
          Uses whispers, false promises, and fake oaths
  
      Evil Humans’ Role:
          Become his allies by:
              Promoting corruption (e.g., tyrannical leaders, influencers normalizing sin).
              Justifying falsehood as "tradition" or "progress" .
          
      The "Blame Game" in Hell
      Scenario:
          Followers will curse their leaders: "You misled us!"
          Leaders will retaliate: "You followed willingly!"
  
      Reality:
          Both are guilty—the corrupt for inventing lies, the followers for blind obedience.
          "For each is double punishment, but you do not know".
          
     How to Escape This Trap?
      Spot the "Con Artists":
          Anyone who:
              Mocks divine limits.
              Promote and cause corruption (e.g. tyrannical leaders)
              Justifies sin as "culture" or "freedom".
      Think Critically:
          "Would Allah approve this?" not "Is this trending?"
      Repent & Reform:
          Adam’s model: "Our Lord, we wronged ourselves!".
       
          "Satan and evil humans collaborate to normalize sin—but on Judgment Day, they’ll curse each other in Hell, proving that rejecting divine guidance for peer pressure, trends, or false leaders is eternal suicide."
