THE FATE OF BELIEVER AND UNBELIEVER
VERSE NO.12-14
The above verses compare the two parties of believer and unbeliever, to show that they can't have a similar fate, whether in this world, or in the life to come. Even in the life to come they are more distinct than here.
The believers final destination is the Garden of Bliss, in which streams of water, sweet soft drinks, delicious milk, honey, and etc., flow.
The unbelievers who eat as animals and enjoy themselves as beasts, and make no use of their spiritual faculties, will have no room in the spiritual world, except in the Hell and amid the blazing fire!
The non-believers eat and enjoy as the cattle do. None of them do have a higher aim and interest than the animals. Their happiness and pleasure extends not out of the frame of matter and material. They do not taste any kind of spiritual sweet, because they do not use the intellectual and higher endowments of their mind; and as a penalty for that, they have to live always amid the fire of miseries.
The believers too enjoy the material blessings of the present life as the non-believers do; but the faithful have aim and object in their lives. They do good and righteous deeds to please their Lord, whereas the unbeliever's aim and interest is to enjoy themselves. The believer acts with awareness and intelligence, and works on conditions, and they are anxious about what they do.
On the contrary, the unbelievers do not care about the spiritual world. They only answer to their vain desires, and follow their caprices. So, their future abode is the fire of Hell. Even in their present life, they are not as prosperous as they seem. The evil of their deeds in this present life too has encompassed them, and they know not from where are they beaten!
