‘O you who disbelieve! Do not make any excuses today — this is said to them upon their entering the Fire — in other words because this excusing will be of no use to you. You are only being requited for what you used to do’ that is only the due requital thereof.

Make no excuses on this very Day. It serves you right, you are being requited for the deeds of inequity and the wrong actions you had done

Quran 66:7 Tafsir Ibn Kathir


Teaching One's Family the Religion and Good Behavior `Ali bin Abi Talhah reported from Ibn `Abbas; قُواْ أَنفُسَكُمْ وَأَهْلِيكُمْ نَاراً ( Protect yourselves and your families against a Fire (Hell )) He said, "Work in the obedience of Allah, avoid disobedience of Allah and order your families to remember Allah, then Allah will save you from the Fire." Mujahid also commented on: قُواْ أَنفُسَكُمْ وَأَهْلِيكُمْ نَاراً ( Protect yourselves and your families against a Fire (Hell )) saying, "Have Taqwa of Allah and order your family to have Taqwa of Him." Qatadah said, "He commands obedience to Allah, to not disobey Allah, he orders his family to obey His orders and helps them to act upon His orders.
When one sees disobedience, he stops them and forbids them from doing it." Similar was said by Ad-Dahhak and Muqatil; "It is an obligation for the Muslim to teach his near family members, and his male and female slaves what Allah has made obligatory for them and what Allah has forbidden for them." There is a Hadith that confirms the meaning of this Ayah.
Ahmad, Abu Dawud and At-Tirmidhi recorded that Ar-Rabi` bin Sabrah said that his father said that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said,
«مُرُوا الصَّبِيَّ بِالصَّلَاةِ إِذَا بَلَغَ سَبْعَ سِنِينَ، فَإِذَا بَلَغَ عَشْرَ سِنِينَ فَاضْرِبُوهُ عَلَيْهَا»
( Order the children to pray when they reach the age of seven and when they reach the age of ten, discipline them for (not performing ) it.) This is the narration that Abu Dawud collected; At-Tirmidhi said, "This Hadith is Hasan." Fuel for Hell and a Description of its Angels Allah said, وَقُودُهَا النَّاسُ وَالْحِجَارَةُ ( whose fuel is men and stones, ) indicating that the Children of Adam will be fuel for the Fire that will feed it, وَالْحِجَارَةُ ( and stones ) in reference to the idols that were worshipped, just as Allah said in another Ayah, إِنَّكُمْ وَمَا تَعْبُدُونَ مِن دُونِ اللَّهِ حَصَبُ جَهَنَّمَ ( Certainly you and that which you are worshipping now besides Allah, are (but ) fuel for Hell!) ( 21:98 ) `Abdullah bin Mas`ud, Mujahid, Abu Ja`far Al-Baqir and As-Suddi said that these are sulfur stones that are more putrid than rotten corpses, according to Mujahid.
Allah's statement, عَلَيْهَا مَلَـئِكَةٌ غِلاَظٌ شِدَادٌ ( over which are (appointed ) angels stern ( and ) severe,) means, their nature of behavior is stern, because the mercy has been taken out of their hearts for those who disbelieve in Allah, شِدَادٌ ( severe ) meaning, their structure is powerful, strong and frightening, لاَّ يَعْصُونَ اللَّهَ مَآ أَمَرَهُمْ وَيَفْعَلُونَ مَا يُؤْمَرُونَ ( who disobey not the commands they receive from Allah, but do that which they are commanded. ) meaning, whatever Allah commands them, they rush to obey Him, without delay for even a twinkling of an eye.
They are able to fulfill the command; they are called Az-Zabaniyah, meaning, the keepers and guards of Hell, may Allah give us shelter from them. No Excuse will be accepted from the Disbeliever on the Day of Resurrection Allah said, يأَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ لاَ تَعْتَذِرُواْ الْيَوْمَ إِنَّمَا تُجْزَوْنَ مَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ ( O you who disbelieve! Make no excuses this Day! You are being requited only for what you used to do. ) meaning, on the Day of Resurrection, the disbeliever will be told, "Do not offer any excuse this Day, because it will not be accepted from you; you will only be recompensed for what you used to do.
Today, you will receive the punishment for your actions." Encouraging sincere Repentance Allah the Exalted said, يأَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ تُوبُواْ إِلَى اللَّهِ تَوْبَةً نَّصُوحاً ( O you who believe! Turn to Allah with sincere repentance! ) meaning, a true, firm repentance that erases the evil sins that preceded it and mend the shortcoming of the repenting person, encouraging and directing him to quit the evil that he used to do.
Allah said, عَسَى رَبُّكُمْ أَن يُكَفِّرَ عَنكُمْ سَيِّئَـتِكُمْ وَيُدْخِلَكُمْ جَنَّـتٍ تَجْرِى مِن تَحْتِهَا الاٌّنْهَـرُ ( It may be that your Lord will expiate from you your sins, and admit you into Gardens under which rivers flow ) And when Allah says, "it may be," it means He shall. يَوْمَ لاَ يُخْزِى اللَّهُ النَّبِىَّ وَالَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ مَعَهُ ( the Day that Allah will not disgrace the Prophet and those who believe with him ) meaning, on the Day of Resurrection, Allah will not disgrace those who believed in the Prophet , نُورُهُمْ يَسْعَى بَيْنَ أَيْدِيهِمْ وَبِأَيْمَـنِهِمْ ( Their light will run forward before them and in their right hands. ) as we explained in Surat Al-Hadid, يَقُولُونَ رَبَّنَآ أَتْمِمْ لَنَا نُورَنَا وَاغْفِرْ لَنَآ إِنَّكَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَىْءٍ قَدِيرٌ ( They will say:"Our Lord! Keep perfect our light for us and grant us forgiveness.
Verily, You are Able to do all things." )
Mujahid, Ad-Dahhak and Al-Hasan Al-Basri and other said, "This is the statement that the believers will say on the Day of Resurrection, when they witness the light of the hypocrites being extinguished." Imam Ahmad recorded that a man from the tribe of Banu Kinanah said, "I prayed behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ during the year of the Conquest ( of Makkah ), and heard him say,
«اللْهُمَّ لَا تُخْزِنِي يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَة»
( O Allah! Please, do not disgrace me on the Day of Resurrection. )"

Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi

(66:7) (It will then be said): 'Unbelievers, make no excuses today. You are being recompensed for nothing else but your deeds.' *18

O you who have disbelieved, make no meaning

*18) The style of both these verses contains a severe warning for the Muslims.
In the first verse the Muslims have been addressed and told that they should save themselves and their households from the dreadful punishment; in the second that this will be said to the disbelievers while subjecting them to punishment in Hell.
This by itself gives the meaning that the Muslims in the world should avoid adopting that conduct and behaviour in consequence of which they may have to meet with the fate as the disbelievers in the Hereafter:

Tanwîr al-Miqbâs min Tafsîr Ibn ‘Abbâs


( Then it will be said ): O ye who disbelieve) in Muhammad ( pbuh ) and the Qur’an! ( Make no excuses for yourselves this day ) for your excuses will not be accepted. ( Ye are only being paid for what ye used to do ) and say in the life of the world.


Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali

(It will be said in the Hereafter) O you who disbelieve (in the Oneness of Allah - Islamic Monotheism)! Make no excuses this Day! You are being requited only for what you used to do.
