Mightier than these in the land, but Allah destroyed them for their sins, and there was not for
them and defender against Allah.
And certainly, we did destroy generations before you when they were unjust, and their apostles
had come to them with clear arguments, and they would not believe; thus do we recompense the
guilty people. Then we made you successors in the land after them so that we may see how you
act.
God cursed the wrongdoers and prepared for them a painful torment. God says:
Now surely the curse of Allah is on the unjust, who turn away from the path of Allah and desire to
make it crooked. And they are disbelievers in the Hereafter. These shall not escape in the earth,
nor shall they have any guardians besides Allah. The punishment shall be doubled for them. They
could not bear to hear and they did not see.
God has decreed to punish the wrongdoers all over history. When God’s discipline and
punishment inflict the wrongdoers, their economic and military powers will not protect them
since God makes all these in vain.
By the exposition of the wrongdoers’ manners, the Quran intends to provide lessons and
admonitions for people to convince them of giving up the vile qualities, such as aggression and
insulting people.
Releasing the intellects from imitation:
Islam has called for releasing the minds from the bonds of imitation. The source of such an
imitation is ignorance and bigotry. The Quran reproached the imitators whose words are
expressed by His saying:
Thus, We did not send before you any warner in a town, but those who led easy lives in it said:
surely, we found our fathers on a course, and surely, we are followers of their footsteps.
The Quran alienated the question of resting upon the chiefs and leaders who avert the guidance,
and ruled that those chiefs, along with their imitators, will share the same punishment. God says:
Those who were followed shall renounce those who followed them, and they see the
chastisement and their ties are cut asunder.
Islam antagonizes any baseless trend that depends upon unfounded imitation and pursuance. This
is an invitation to discipline the minds and release the ideas from the bonds of imitation.
