107. Deem they themselves secure from the coming
on them of a pall of Allah’s punishment, or the coming of the Hour suddenly while
they are unaware?

Commentary
Gaashi-yatun – (a cloak, covering, a pall), it is a
feminine subject from gashii. Gashii means “to cover, to besiege from
all around”. Gaashi-yah means “a
thing which spreads over everywhere and covers entirely”. Here it aims “a
common disaster and calamity”.
It is commanded: Do
they not fear from it that any sudden misfortune may come and seize them, and
their breaths are stunned? Ultimately, which certain form of safety from it
they have? Wrecker shocks of earthquakes, dust and rain storms, thunderbolt, stupefying
inundation of rivers and seas, plague and disasters can come without
information and surround suddenly, and they cannot be saved from them. Then why
do they have been sitting so much fearless? And why have they begun to consider
that “We can suffer no injury; though we commit in accordance with our every
wish”? It can happen also that the world’s last time of ruin reaches suddenly
and their mouths remain opened due to its terror, and the entire system of the
world is disorganized immediately before their eyes but they may not know. Then
what can they do at that time save it that they have to die a worse death?
In truth, ignorance of
the mankind is astonishing. Any little or great disaster comes every year. By
earthquakes, human beings, dwelling places and cattle are destroyed. By floods,
crops, mankind and animals are ruined every year. Diseases and plagues attack
usually but, even then, the human beings do not believe in Allah Almighty, His
Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) and His Scripture,
and they stand to challenge: Those who had to die; have died, but next; I shall
make a suitable arrangement for it all in time.
