Verse45

(45) فَقُطِعَ دابِرُ الْقَوْمِ الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا وَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعالَمِينَ

45. " So the people who were unjust were rooted out, and praise belongs to Allah, the Lord of the worlds."


Commentary :
The annihilation of unjust people is conclusive and certain. Cruelty cannot resist long.
Transgression is also effective in generation. The verse says :
" So the people who were unjust were rooted out, ..."
Therefore, as it is mentioned in the current holy verse, when the transgressors are destroyed, Allah should be thanked and praised. So, the verse continues saying :
"... and praise belongs to Allah, the Lord of the worlds."
This phrase, mentioned in this verse, hints to this fact that cutting off the roots of mischief and transgression, which ends to the destruction of a people who can continue committing it, is so important that requires to thank Allah and to be gratitude of Him.
A tradition narrated from Imam Sadiq (a.s.) says :
" He who loves the imperishability of the unjust, its meaning is that Allah to be disobeyed (by means of sins), and (the phenomenon of transgression is so important that) Allah (the Blessed and Exalted) has praised His Essence for the destruction of the unjust and He has said: " So the people who were unjust were rooted out, and praise belongs to Allah, the Lord of the worlds '."
