(129) وَ كَذلِكَ نُوَلِّي بَعْضَ الظَّالِمِينَ بَعْضاً بِما كانُوا يَكْسِبُونَ
129. " And thus do We make some of the iniquitous to befriend others on account of what they used to earn."
Commentary :
As a trial, Allah may leave the unjust to themselves and make them friends of each other in order that they show affection to each other. In this case, their retribution, that He will give them, will be as much as they deserve. So, similar to the situation of the transgressors among jinn and human, on the Resurrection Day, when Allah will refer them to each other and He will declare Himself to be clear of them, we will refer the unjust to each other, too.
There are some persons who have followed some persons other than Allah. They will be left to their masters on that Day, and will be told to go to them for the deliverance from Fire.
The purpose of this statement is to announce them that, on the Resurrection Day, there will not be any friend to save them from the chastisement.
In other words, as a result of the friendship and affection that they had between themselves, they will be sent to the Hell following each other.(1)
" And thus do We make some of the iniquitous to befriend others on account of what they used to earn."

(1) According to some Islamic narrations, the retribution of the following persons will be the domination of the cruel ones upon them. These persons are : those who abandon enjoining right and forbidding wrong, and those who do not pay khoms (one fifth levy), alms and religious taxes, and those who assist the unjust. (Atyab-ul-Bayan, the commentary)
A tradition indidicates that when Allah is pleased with the deeds of a group of people, He will refer their affairs to some good persons; but when He is not pleased with their deeds, He may put their affairs in the hands of some evil ones. (Kashf-ul- 'Asrar, the commentary)
