Don’t You Use Your Intellect?!

November 14, 2012

They indulge in sins and evil, they miss their obligations, they do not give rights to others, and they say: [It will be forgiven for us.] A’rāf:169

In the same āyah Allah subḥāneh wa ta’āla tells us that the Hereafter is khair (i.e. it has good) for the Muttaqīn – the pious, those who feared Allah and obeyed Him, subḥāneh.  

And He subḥāneh ends the āyah with: [afala ta’qilūn] – the literal translation would be, “don’t you use your ‘aqal (intellect)?!”
