Surah 6 Al-An'am, Ayat 130-130
يٰمَعۡشَرَ الۡجِنِّ وَالۡاِنۡسِ اَلَمۡ يَاۡتِكُمۡ رُسُلٌ مِّنۡكُمۡ يَقُصُّوۡنَ عَلَيۡكُمۡ اٰيٰتِىۡ وَيُنۡذِرُوۡنَكُمۡ لِقَآءَ يَوۡمِكُمۡ هٰذَا ؕ قَالُوۡا شَهِدۡنَا عَلٰٓى اَنۡفُسِنَا وَغَرَّتۡهُمُ الۡحَيٰوةُ الدُّنۡيَا وَشَهِدُوۡا عَلٰٓى اَنۡفُسِهِمۡ اَنَّهُمۡ كَانُوۡا كٰفِرِيۡنَ
﴿6:130﴾
(6:130) (Then Allah will also ask them): 'O assembly of jinn and men! Did
there not come to y ou Messengers from among yourselves, relating to you My
signs, and warning you of the encounter of this your Day (of Judgement)?' They
will say: 'Yes, we bear witness against ourselves.'98 They have been
deluded by the life of this world, and they will bear witness against themselves
that they had disbelieved.99
Notes
98. The wrong-doers would confess that even though the Prophets had come,
in succession, in order to inform them of the Truth, it was their own fault
that they did not respond to their call.
99. They were deniers of, and disbelievers in, rather than ignorant of the
Truth. They acknowledged tha! the Truth had been conveyed to them and that they
had refused to accept it.
