(44) وَ نادى أَصْحابُ الْجَنَّةِ أَصْحابَ النَّارِ أَنْ قَدْ وَجَدْنا ما وَعَدَنا رَبُّنا حَقًّا فَهَلْ وَجَدْتُمْ
ما وَعَدَ رَبُّكُمْ حَقًّا قالُوا نَعَمْ فَأَذَّنَ مُؤَذِّنٌ بَيْنَهُمْ أَنْ لَعْنَةُ اللَّهِ عَلَى الظَّالِمِينَ
44. " And the inhabitants of Paradise will call to the inhabitants of the (Hell) Fire: ' We have found what our Lord promised us true; have you, too, found what your Lord promised true ? They will say: ' Yes.' Then a crier will proclaim between them that: ' Allah's curse is on the unjust."
Commentary :
It is recorded in the books of Shi'ite narrations and in some books of traditions of Sunnite school (like the book by Hakim Huskani) that the above-mentioned 'crier' will be Hadrat Ali (a.s.). Similarly, he (a.s.) recited the Sura Al-Bara'ah in Mecca which announced the acquittance of Muslims from the whole pagans of the world. Therefore, the recitation of resolutions of acquittance and curse of Allah unto pagans are from the tongue of Ali (a.s.), both in the world and Hereafter.
" And the inhabitants of Paradise will call to the inhabitants of the (Hell) Fire: ' We have found what our Lord promised us true; have you, too, found what your Lord promised true ? They will say: ' Yes.' Then a crier will proclaim between them that: ' Allah's curse is on the unjust."
Explanations :
1. In Hereafter, the dwellers of Heaven and the dwellers of Hell will speak with each other.
" And the inhabitants of paradise will call to the inhabitants of the (Hell) Fire: ..."
2. The believers and the disbelievers will find the promises of Allah in truth and practical.
"... ' We have found what our Lord promised us true; ..."
3. By means of the inhabitants of Heaven, Allah will make the inhabitants of Hell confession, so that they incur some more shame and pressure.(1)
4. All of the belies, accusations and sarcasms of the disbelievers will have some day a painful and sharp response.
"... Then a crier will proclaim between them that: ' Allah's curse is on the unjust."
The court of Hereafter upon disbelievers will end with the motto saying :
"... Allah's curse is on the unjust."
