Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem
As Salaamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullaahi wa
Barkaatuh!
Their condition may be described in a parable:
A man kindled a fire
and
when it illuminated all around him,
Allah took away the light
from their eyes and left them in utter darkness, where they could not
see anything.*
They are deaf; they are dumb; they are blind*so they will not return (to the
right way).
Explaination
*The
parable means that when a person,
Muhammad (Allah's peace be upon
him), spread the light of Truth that discriminated right from wrong
and virtue from vice, those who used their faculties properly began
to distinguish between these things.
But the hypocrites, who were
blinded by self-interest, could not see the right path
even with the
help of this light.
"Allah took away the light from their eyes"
should not cause one the misunderstanding that the responsibility of
not seeing the truth did not lie on them.
Allah deprives of the
sight only him
who is not himself a seeker after truth,
who chooses
error for himself instead of guidance, who shuts his eyes to the
truth.
When they themselves turned away
from the light of truth and
chose to wander only in the darkness of falsehood, Allah also let
them go astray.
They are..
"Deaf" to hear the Truth, "Dumb" to speak the Truth
and "Blind" to see the Truth.

Our Lord! grant us good in this world
and good in the hereafter,
and save us from the chastisement of the fire
