Translation — Tafsir

Word Meanings:

Taṣghā (تَصْغَى): To incline, lean, or bend toward something.
Af’idah (أَفْئِدَة): Hearts (plural of fu’ād), referring to the inner core of a person’s being—the seat of emotion and conviction.
Yarḍawhu (يَرْضَوْهُ): To accept it, be pleased with it, and embrace it willingly.
Yaqtarifū (يَقْتَرِفُوا): To commit, earn, or acquire—used here specifically for deeds, whether good or bad, but in this context, sinful actions.

Tafsir (Explanation):

This verse reveals the profound wisdom behind why Allah permits the deceptive whispers and embellished falsehoods of the devil and his allies to spread among people. The purpose is that the hearts of those who deny the Hereafter—who do not believe in resurrection, accountability, or eternal reward and punishment—should incline toward this hollow, glittering speech. They are drawn to it because it aligns with their worldly desires and their rejection of divine truth. Their hearts willingly accept it, finding comfort in its false promises, and they embrace it as their chosen path.

Then, the verse concludes with a chilling consequence: "and that they may commit what they are committing." This means they will continue to earn and accumulate sins—disbelief, arrogance, and transgression—until their fate is sealed. The verse serves as a stern warning: these people are not merely victims of deception; they are active participants who, by their own choice, cling to falsehood and persist in wrongdoing. Their hearts are not forced to incline; rather, they willingly turn away from truth and gravitate toward what pleases their lower desires.

For the believer, this verse is a call to vigilance and gratitude. It reminds us that faith in the Hereafter is a shield—it protects the heart from being swayed by glittering falsehood and keeps us anchored to the truth, even when falsehood appears attractive. The one who truly believes in the Day of Judgment sees beyond the temporary allure of this world and recognizes that every deed, hidden or open, will be weighed on the scales of justice. So let us thank Allah for the gift of faith, and let us strive to purify our hearts so they incline only toward what pleases Him—for the heart that is firmly rooted in the Hereafter will never be deceived by the fleeting ornaments of this life.

📜 Verse 111-115 — Al-An'am

111۞ وَلَوْ أَنَّنَا نَزَّلْنَا إِلَيْهِمُ الْمَلَائِكَةَ وَكَلَّمَهُمُ الْمَوْتَىٰ وَحَشَرْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ قُبُلًا مَّا كَانُوا لِيُؤْمِنُوا إِلَّا أَن يَشَاءَ اللَّهُ وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَهُمْ يَجْهَلُونَ

And even if We had sent down to them the angels [with the message] and the dead spoke to them [of it] and We gathered together every [created] thing in front of them, they would not believe unless Allah should will. But most of them, [of that], are ignorant.

112وَكَذَٰلِكَ جَعَلْنَا لِكُلِّ نَبِيٍّ عَدُوًّا شَيَاطِينَ الْإِنسِ وَالْجِنِّ يُوحِي بَعْضُهُمْ إِلَىٰ بَعْضٍ زُخْرُفَ الْقَوْلِ غُرُورًا ۚ وَلَوْ شَاءَ رَبُّكَ مَا فَعَلُوهُ ۖ فَذَرْهُمْ وَمَا يَفْتَرُونَ

And thus We have made for every prophet an enemy - devils from mankind and jinn, inspiring to one another decorative speech in delusion. But if your Lord had willed, they would not have done it, so leave them and that which they invent.

113وَلِتَصْغَىٰ إِلَيْهِ أَفْئِدَةُ الَّذِينَ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِالْآخِرَةِ وَلِيَرْضَوْهُ وَلِيَقْتَرِفُوا مَا هُم مُّقْتَرِفُونَ

And [it is] so the hearts of those who disbelieve in the Hereafter will incline toward it and that they will be satisfied with it and that they will commit that which they are committing.

114أَفَغَيْرَ اللَّهِ أَبْتَغِي حَكَمًا وَهُوَ الَّذِي أَنزَلَ إِلَيْكُمُ الْكِتَابَ مُفَصَّلًا ۚ وَالَّذِينَ آتَيْنَاهُمُ الْكِتَابَ يَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّهُ مُنَزَّلٌ مِّن رَّبِّكَ بِالْحَقِّ ۖ فَلَا تَكُونَنَّ مِنَ الْمُمْتَرِينَ

[Say], "Then is it other than Allah I should seek as judge while it is He who has revealed to you the Book explained in detail?" And those to whom We [previously] gave the Scripture know that it is sent down from your Lord in truth, so never be among the doubters.

115وَتَمَّتْ كَلِمَتُ رَبِّكَ صِدْقًا وَعَدْلًا ۚ لَّا مُبَدِّلَ لِكَلِمَاتِهِ ۚ وَهُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْعَلِيمُ

And the word of your Lord has been fulfilled in truth and in justice. None can alter His words, and He is the Hearing, the Knowing.
