What is Disbelief?
Denying faith in Allah, His Messengers, His Books,
His Angels, and the Day of Judgment is Disbelief.

{ 631} 4 -

Believers! Believe in Allah and His Messenger and in the Book He

has revealed to His Messenger, and in the Book He revealed
before. And whoever disbelieves in Allah, in His angels, in His
Books, in His Messengers and in the Last Day, has indeed strayed
far away.

{ 651 - 651} 4 -

There are those who disbelieve in Allah and His Messengers and
seek to create differences between Allah and His Messengers,
and say: 'We believe in some and deny others, and seek to strike
a way between the two.' It is they, indeed they, who are,
beyond all doubt, unbelievers; and for the unbelievers We have
Monotheism: Part 8-1-1: Some Kinds of Disbelief (For More Files Please Visit) {www.quranictopics.com} Page 1

Page 2 of 18

prepared a humiliating chastisement. For those who believe in

Allah and His Messengers, and do not differentiate between
them, We shall certainly give them their reward. Allah is AllForgiving, All-Compassionate.

{ 5} 63 -

And were you to wonder, then wondrous indeed is the saying of

those who say: "What! After we have been reduced to dust, shall
we be created afresh?" They are the ones who disbelieved in
their Lord; they are the ones who shall have shackles around
their necks. They shall be the inmates of the Fire, wherein they
will abide for ever.
Refuse to obey Allah and His Messenger (PBUH) is Disbelief

{ 31 - 36} 3 -

)O Messenger!) Tell people: 'If you indeed love Allah, follow me,
and Allah will love you and forgive you your sins. Allah is AllForgiving, All-Compassionate.' Say: 'Obey Allah and obey the
Messenger.' If they turn away from this then know that Allah
does not love those who refuse to obey Him and His Messenger.

Not to judge by what Allah has revealed is Disbelief

{ 44} 5 -

Those who do not judge by what Allah has revealed are indeed
the unbelievers.
Following any other way of Life other than Islam is Disbelief.

{ 61} 3 -

The true religion with Allah is Islam. The People of the Book
adopted many different ways rather than follow the true way of
Islam even after the knowledge of truth had reached them, and
this merely to commit excesses against one another. Let him
who refuses to follow the ordinances and directives of Allah
know that Allah is swift in His reckoning.
Belie and dispute regarding Allah's Signs and His
Revelations and making them as objects of jest is Disbelief

{ 61} 31 -

As for those who disbelieved and gave the lie to Our Signs and to
the Meeting of the Hereafter, they will be arraigned for
chastisement.

{ 61} 5 -

Those who disbelieved and gave the lie to Our signs are rightfully
the inmates of the Blazing Flame.

{ 4} 41 -

None but the unbelievers dispute regarding the Signs of Allah. So

let not their strutting about in the land delude you.

{ 611 - 613} 66 -

Say, (O Muhammad): "Shall We tell you who will be the greatest

losers in respect of their works? It will be those whose effort
went astray in the life of the world and who believe nevertheless
that they are doing good. Those are the ones who refused to
believe in the revelations of their Lord and that they are bound
to meet Him. Hence, all their deeds have come to naught, and
We shall assign no weight to them on the Day of Resurrection.
Hell is their recompense for disbelieving and their taking My
revelations and My Messengers as objects of jest.

Ingratitude towards Allah for His bounties is also Disbelief.

{ 663 - 661} 61 -

Allah sets forth the parable of (the people of) a town who were
secure and well content and whose sustenance came in
abundance from every quarter. But then the people of the town
showed ingratitude towards Allah for His bounties, so Allah
afflicted them with hunger and fear in punishment for their evil
deeds. Most certainly a Messenger came to them from among
them; but they rejected him, calling him a liar. Therefore
chastisement seized them while they were engaged in wrongdoing.

{ 55 - 53} 61-

Every bounty that you enjoy is from Allah; and whenever any
misfortune strikes you, it is to Him that you cry for the removal
of your distress. But as soon as He removes the distress from
you, some of you associate others with their Lord in giving
thanks, that they may show ingratitude for the bounties We
bestowed upon them. So enjoy yourselves for a while, soon you
will come to know (the truth).
Monotheism: Part 8-1-1: Some Kinds of Disbelief (For More Files Please Visit) {www.quranictopics.com} Page 5

Page 6 of 18

{ 35 - 33} 31 -

(Such are human beings) that when any misfortune befalls

them, they cry to their Lord, penitently turning to Him. But no
sooner that He lets them have a taste of His Mercy than some of
them begin associating others as partners with their Lord so that
they may show ingratitude to Us for the favours We had
bestowed upon them. So, enjoy yourselves a while; but then you
shall soon come to know. Have We sent down any sanction
which provides support to their associating others with Allah in
His Divinity?
Disbelief of the People of the Book

{ 31} 1 -

The Jews say, "Ezra (Uzair) is the son of Allah," and the Christians
say, "The Messiah is the son of Allah." Such are the baseless things
they utter with their tongues, following in the footsteps of the
former unbelievers. May Allah afflict them with chastisement!
Wherefrom are they being perverted?
Monotheism: Part 8-1-1: Some Kinds of Disbelief (For More Files Please Visit) {www.quranictopics.com} Page 6

Page 7 of 18

Certainly they disbelieved: those who said

{ 22 - 21} 5 -

And surely they disbelieved when they said: 'Christ, the son of Mary,
is indeed God'; whereas Christ had said: 'Children of Israel! Serve
Allah, Who is your Lord and my Lord.' Allah has forbidden Paradise
to those who associate anything with Him in His divinity and their
refuge will be the Fire. No one will be able to help such wrong-doers.
Those who said: 'Allah is one of the Three', certainly they
disbelieved, for there is no god except the One God. And if they do
not give up this claim, all who have disbelieved among them shall be
subjected to painful chastisement. Will they not, then, turn to Allah
in repentance, and ask for His forgiveness? Allah is All-Forgiving, AllCompassionate.
The Messiah, son of Mary, was no more than a Messenger before
whom many Messengers have passed away; and his mother adhered
Monotheism: Part 8-1-1: Some Kinds of Disbelief (For More Files Please Visit) {www.quranictopics.com} Page 7

Page 8 of 18

wholly to truthfulness, and they both ate food (as other mortals do).
See how We make Our signs clear to them; and see where they are
turning away!
Say: 'Do you serve, beside Allah, that which has no power either to
harm or benefit you, whereas Allah alone is All-Hearing, AllKnowing?'
Say: 'O People of the Book! Do not go beyond bounds in your
religion at the cost of truth, and do not follow the caprices of the
people who fell into error before, and caused others to go astray,
and strayed far away from the right path.
Disbelievers are the Worst of creatures in the sight of Allah

{ 55} 6 -

Surely the worst moving creatures in the sight of Allah are those
who definitively denied the truth and are therefore in no way ready
to accept it.

{ 2 - 1} 16 -

Those who disbelieved be they from among the People of the

Book or among those who associate others as partners with
Allah shall be in the Fire, and will abide in it. They are the
worst of creatures. But those that believe and work righteous
deeds, they are the best of creatures.

How do you disbelieve?

{ 32} 66 -

Do you deny Him Who created you out of dust, then out of a
drop of sperm, and then fashioned you into a complete man?

{ 11 - 16} 1 -

How is it that you adopt the attitude of disbelief towards Allah

when the fact is that you were lifeless and He gave you life, and
He will take away life from you and will again restore you to life:
then you shall ultimately return to Him. He it is Who created for
you all that there is on the Earth; He then turned to the sky and
ordered it into seven heavens. And He has full knowledge of
everything.
We have created you, then why don't you believe?

{ 31 - 35} 51 -

Did they come into being without any creator? Or were they
their own creators? Or is it they who created the heavens and
the earth? No; the truth is that they lack sure faith.
Monotheism: Part 8-1-1: Some Kinds of Disbelief (For More Files Please Visit) {www.quranictopics.com} Page 9

Page 10 of 18

{ 51 - 52} 51 -

We have created you, then why would you not confirm it? Did
you ever consider the sperm that you emit? Do you create a
child out of it, or are We its creators?
If you disbelieve, know well that Allah has no need of
you. Yet He does not like unbelief in His servants.

{ 6} 64 -

"If you and everyone on the earth turn to disbelief, know that
God is Self-sufficient and Innately Praiseworthy."

{ 2} 31 -

If you disbelieve, know well that Allah has no need of you. Yet
He does not like unbelief in His servants. But if you are thankful,
your thankfulness will please Him. No one shall bear another's
burden. You are destined to return to your Lord and He will tell
you what you used to do. He is well aware even of what lies
hidden in your breasts.

Page 11 of 18

Whoever disbelieves will bear the burden of his unbelief.

{ 31} 35 -

It is He Who made you vicegerents in the earth. So whoever

disbelieves will bear the burden of his unbelief. The unbelievers'
unbelief adds nothing but Allah's wrath against them. The
unbelievers' unbelief adds nothing but their own loss.

Deeds of Disbelievers

{ 41 - 31} 14 -

The deeds of those who disbelieved, maybe likened to a mirage

in a waterless desert, which the thirsty one took for water; but
when he reached there he found nothing to drink; nay, he found
there Allah Who settled his full account, and Allah is very swift at
reckoning. Or (their efforts may be likened to) a deep dark
ocean, covered with billows, one over the other, and above it a
cloud: darkness upon darkness: so much so that if he stretches
out his hand, he cannot see it. There is no light for the one whom
Allah does not give light.
Monotheism: Part 8-1-1: Some Kinds of Disbelief (For More Files Please Visit) {www.quranictopics.com} Page 11

Page 12 of 18

{ 66} 64 -

This is the example of those who disbelieve in their Lord: their

works are like ashes upon which the wind blows fiercely on a
tempestuous day. They shall find no reward for their deeds. That
indeed is the farthest point in straying.

{ 5} 5 -

The work of he who refuses to follow the way of faith will go

waste, and he will be among the utter losers in the Hereafter.
Consequences of Disbelief

{ 52} 14 -

Do not think about those who have disbelieved that they will be
able to frustrate Allah in the land; their abode is Hell and it is a
very evil abode.

{ 66} 61-

Monotheism: Part 8-1-1: Some Kinds of Disbelief (For More Files Please Visit) {www.quranictopics.com} Page 12

Page 13 of 18

As for those who disbelieved and barred others from the way of
Allah, We shall add further chastisement to their chastisement
for all the mischief they did.

{ 61 - 1} 5 -

Allah has promised those who believe and do righteous deeds

forgiveness from sins and a great reward. As for those who
disbelieve and give the lie to Our signs, they are destined for the
Blazing Flame.

{ 61} 14 -

As for those who disbelieved and gave the lie to Our Signs: they
shall be the inmates of the Fire, and will abide in it. That is a
woeful resort!

{ 61} 42 -

Allah shall admit those who believe and do righteous works to

the Gardens beneath which rivers flow. As for the unbelievers,
they enjoy the pleasures of this transient life and eat as cattle
eat. The Fire shall be their resort.
Monotheism: Part 8-1-1: Some Kinds of Disbelief (For More Files Please Visit) {www.quranictopics.com} Page 13

Page 14 of 18

Allah will never forgive those who disbelieved and

clung to their unbelief until their death.

{ 34} 42 -

Verily Allah will not forgive those who disbelieved and barred
others from Allah's Way and clung to their unbelief until their death.
They are accursed of Allah and of angels and of all mankind.

{ 611 - 616} 1 -

Those who adopted the way of disbelief and died as disbelievers,

are accursed of Allah and of angels and of all mankind: they shall
remain accursed for ever. Their punishment shall not be
lightened, nor shall they be reprieved.
Neither their possessions nor their children will avail them
against Allah.

{ 661} 3 -

As for those who denied the Truth, neither their possessions nor
their children will avail them against Allah. They are the people
of the Fire, and therein they shall abide.

Page 15 of 18

{ 16} 3 -

Truly those who disbelieved and died as unbelievers, not even

an earth full of gold will be accepted from them as ransom. For
such people there is painful chastisement; and none shall come
to their help.

{ 31} 5 -

For those who disbelieved - even if they had all that is in the
earth, and the like of it with it, and offered it all as ransom from
chastisement on the Day of Resurrection, it would not be
accepted from them - a painful chastisement lies in store for them.

Some Scenes in the Afterlife

{ 61} 41 -

It will be announced to the unbelievers (on the Day of

Resurrection): Surely Allah's abhorrence of you when you were
called to believe but you disbelieved was greater than is your
abhorrence of yourselves today.

And on the Day when the unbelievers will be exposed to

the Fire, they will be told:

{ 11} 41 -

And on the Day when the unbelievers will be exposed to the

Fire, they will be told: You have exhausted your share of the
bounties in the life of the world, and you took your fill of
enjoyments. So, degrading chastisement shall be yours on this
Day for you waxed arrogant in the earth without justification
and acted iniquitously.
There they shall not be finished off and die; nor will the
torment (of Hell) be lightened for them.

{ 51} 4 -

Surely We shall cast those who reject Our signs into the Fire; and
as often as their skins are burnt out, We shall give them other
skins in exchange that they may fully taste the chastisement.
Surely Allah is All-Mighty, All-Wise.

{ 32 - 31} 35 -

As for those who disbelieved, the Fire of Hell awaits them. There
they shall not be finished off and die; nor will the torment (of
Hell) be lightened for them. Thus do We requite every thankless
being. They will cry out in Hell and say: Our Lord, let us out so
that we may act righteously, different from what we did before.
(They will be told): Did we not grant you an age long enough for
anyone to take heed if he had wanted to take heed? Besides,
there came a warner to you. So have a taste of the torment now.
None may come to the help of the wrong-doers.
