Types of Allah's Azaab.... one is "nefaaq"

Okay, lets talk about the types of Allah’s “Azaab” (Wrath) on humans. How Allah punishes those who do not obey Him…

Other question is does “Nefaaq” is one of the way by which Allah punishes humans?


Please do not cut paste. Write your own words, even if two lines…you can use any reference to hadith Quran or any other source but please do not write copy paste, just your own words…

Re: Types of Allah’s Azaab… one is “nefaaq”

Nifaaq is not a punishment. It’s a disease of heart.

It is said that the remedy of Nifaaq is Infaaq; that is to spent in the path of ALLAH:swt: from which we love.

:bism:

*3:92 ***By no means shall ye attain righteousness unless ye give (freely) of that which ye love; and whatever ye give, of a truth Allah knoweth it well. **

Can you please post definitions when you use words like these?

Re: Types of Allah's Azaab.... one is "nefaaq"

I tried looking the two words up and here's what I could find:

Nifaaq - hypocrisy

Infaaq - spending

Feel free to correct me.

Re: Types of Allah's Azaab.... one is "nefaaq"

nifaq/hypocrisy may be a punishment as per:

"So He has, as a consequence, put hypocrisy into their hearts till the Day whereon they shall meet Him: because they broke their covenant with Allah which they had promised Him, and because they lied" (Qur'an 9:77)

Re: Types of Allah's Azaab.... one is "nefaaq"

So somewhere the word munafiq fits in.

One must be the root of the other......

Re: Types of Allah’s Azaab… one is “nefaaq”

You are near to the understanding of this idea of “Nifaq” :slight_smile:

Re: Types of Allah’s Azaab… one is “nefaaq”

My understanding is that the ayah is about a diseasse being casted (as a punishment) in the hearts, just like a hadeeth talks about casting of the disease of wahn in the hearts of Muslims due to their wrongdoings.

Wallah-O-Alam!

In any case, Nifaaq is something from which everyone of us should seek a refuge towards ALLAH:swt: and that’s what’s important. Terming it, is a petty matter at the end.
