إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ كَذَّبُوا۟ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَا وَٱسْتَكْبَرُوا۟ عَنْهَا لَا تُفَتَّحُ لَهُمْ أَبْوَٰبُ ٱلسَّمَآءِ وَلَا يَدْخُلُونَ ٱلْجَنَّةَ حَتَّىٰ يَلِجَٱلْجَمَلُ فِى سَمِّ ٱلْخِيَاطِ وَكَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى ٱلْمُجْرِمِينَ 40
لَهُم مِّن جَهَنَّمَ مِهَادٌ وَمِن فَوْقِهِمْ غَوَاشٍ وَكَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِى ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ 41

40. Lo! They who
deny Our Revelations and scorn them, for them the gates of heaven will not be
opened nor will they enter the Garden until the camel goeth through the
needle’s eye. And thus do We requite the guilty.
41. Theirs will a bed
of Hell, and over them coverings (of Hell). And thus do We requite
wrongdoers.

Commentary
‘
Ga-waashin –
(coverings), actually this word is Ga-waashii and plural
of Gaashi-yah, which has been derived from the word Gash-yun.
Gash-yun means “to cover something”. Gashi-yah means
“Covering” - a thing used to cover something.
It
has been commanded in this verse that negligence and carelessness from the orders
of Allah Almighty, opposing the way – led by the Messenger (grace, glory,
blessings and peace be upon Him), persistence on evils, sins and wicked deeds
etc. these entire errors will appear after death in the form of the Fire of
Hell, and as they had been sticking to bad works in this world, there,
similarly the Fire will be clinging to them. There is no form of their
reaching Paradise because of their wicked deeds.
It
is commanded that those people who falsified Our Revelations in the world and
said that These were self-invented, and rejected Our promises and Warnings
regarding Reward and punishment, scorned the decisions of these verses against
their own false decisions, for them, neither the gates of Heaven will be
opened, nor will they enter into the Garden.
They
used to say in the world that supposed names of the Paradise and the
Hell have been made-believe for entertainment and frightening the children. Now
they have no right to enter in the Garden after death. They are fallen into
their haughtiness and consider themselves greatest, and think that these Words
are of low level, which have been described in the verses of Holy Qur’an regarding
the Paradise. These kinds of their thoughts are not suitable for them
because they are a creature of Allah Almighty as others and possess the dignity
of His Viceroy on the earth.
If
a picture of such type of imagination is drawn, that will be exactly as though;
they are a camel and the gate of the Paradise is an eye of a needle.
This instance can be the best example regarding bigger and smaller. Now if they
went into the Paradise, it will be as though; that the camel passed
through the eye of the needle. As you know; it is impossible. The camel can
never go through the eye of the needle.
Similarly
these people, who consider that they are grandeur, and think
about Paradise that it is a little word before their dignity, cannot
enter. Allah Almighty says: it is Our Way of punishment to the guilty that We
change their credence in the form of agony. Those people, who have fixed firmly
in their mind the false ideas of living in the world, and they consider that
the Commands of Allah Almighty are nothing against their thoughts and
traditions, and they say: We don’t like these faiths and we have advanced and
gone very forth from the Believers of the religion, their false thoughts will
become the Fire of Hell for those people and they will be punished according to
their thoughts.
