1 The Virtues of Surah Al-Ma'idah; When It was Revealed Surah to ...

وَأَهْلُ‏ الن َّارِ‏ خَمْسَةٌ:‏
And the inhabitants of the Fire are five:
الض َّعِيفُ‏ ال َّذي لَا دِینَ‏ لَهُ،‏
وَال َّذِین هُمْ‏ فِيكُمْ‏ تَبَعٌ‏ أَوْ‏ تَبَعًا شَك َّ یَحْيى لَا یَبْتَغُون أَهْلًا وَلَا
مَالًا،‏
وَالْخَائِنُ‏ ال َّذِي لَا یَخْفَى لَهُ‏ طَمَعٌ‏ وَإِنْ‏ دَق َّ إِل َّا خَانَهُ،‏
وَرَجُلٌ‏ لَا یُصْبِحُ‏ وَلَا یُمْسِي إِل َّا وَهُوَ‏ یُخَادِعُكَ‏ عَنْ‏ أَهْلِكَ‏
وَمَالِكَ‏
وَذَآَرَ‏ الْبَخِيلَ‏ أَوِ‏ الْكَذ َّابَ‏ وَالش ِّنْظِيرَ:‏ الفَاحِش

•
• the weak one with no religion;
• those who follow after you not for family
reasons nor wealth;
• and the treacherous who does not hide his
treachery, acting treacherous in even the
most insignificant matters;
• and a person who comes every morning and
every evening, is cheating your family or your
wealth.'
• And he mentioned the stingy, or the liar, and
the foulmouthed person.''
Therefore, the Hadith states that Allah looked at
the people of the earth and disliked them all, both
the Arabs and non-Arabs among them, except a
few among the Children of Israel, or a few among
the People of the Book as Muslim recorded. The
religion was distorted and changed for the people
of the earth until Allah sent Muhammad , and
Allah, thus, guided the creatures and took them
away from the darkness to the light and placed
them on a clear path and a glorious Law.
Allah said,
أَن تَقُولُواْ‏ مَا جَاءنَا مِن بَشِيرٍ‏ وَلاَ‏ نَذِیرٍ‏ ...
lest you say, "There came unto us no bringer of glad
tidings and no warner."
